He shot 74%, 81%, and 76.5% the past three years. He increased it by 20-30%. If Dre can do that I'll be extremely happy.

Dre and his free throws remind me of this -

Maybe he should try this -

.762

started at .661 though


Lol my bad, still he wasn't nearly as bad as Dre and didn't improve as much as Dre would need to. All players have flaws, this is Dre's

Oh nvm. He did start significantly higher than I thought. Still, 66% to 81% is quite a jump.

19pts, 3blks and 17rebs from Drummond. I know it's just preseason, but my goodness( :nonono: ) that was a nice pick-up for the Pistons.

Good game for my young dude Jennings, Smith, and Monroe too.

Let me know,I really want to get it,but iam torn,99 percent of the regular season games are always televised on fsd or fsn,so its hard to justify paying 200 or 150 to my iwfe.

Does it say that the game is good to go online or a channel ?

Found out they don't air pre-season games, just regular season and playoffs.

I don't live in Michigan, so it has more value to me. I wouldn't have purchased it if I still lived in MI.

This. Atlanta also played more players while we only played like 9...

I believe he can accomplish 50-60 within the next 1 or 2,you can see he form is better and his shot looks more fluid and softer.Once he becomes a house hold name and the nervousness is a thing of the past for him,I can see him hitting those numbers.

No need, there was someone in this game thread who called Drummond's post game "brutal"

Hilarious lol

But his post game isn't great. You can't honestly believe his post game is developed. He doesn't even use his size and athleticism properly in the post on a regular basis.

I'm right there with the biggest Drummond fans, but let's not gloss over parts of his game that need some serious work.

There's a lot between great and brutal. Just because he scoffed at the "brutal" designation doesn't automatically make him think it's great or even polished. It's the extremes that are used that leads to these debates, instead of anyone ever rating things somewhere in the middle.

Great post.

It's always one extreme or the other on here sadly.

Dre is so damn raw, he has one post move , and he's barely good at it, and still putting up these numbers. Just think. and as far as the GB, don't worry about rap fans, most of them are bandwagon idiots that are still sour about their draftee's. The few intelligent ones though are pretty reasonable, and i even owe them some apologise about deRozan
