I know SVG "likes his guys" but this team is mediocre. The thinking that we'll get guys in Free Agency is stupid. No one wants to come here. Just look at last summer as an example.

Can you tell SVG spent the whole time on defense and they lost focus on how to score :^)

You know the difference between these teams tonight. The celtics are actually going into the paint! Stop taking jumpers we aren't hitting them...

we are 1.5 seasons into 5 year plan. Have core pieces at every position except PF. Even if no one wants to come here, we'll be fine as a franchise.

Yeah. Who wan'ts to come to a team that was horrible? This year we might make the playoffs. Huge difference betweent this year and last year. I'm happy we didn't get any of them Free agents. Mook is putting up similiar number, but a lot less $.

Did you even expect this team to be this good this year? I'd guess no, a lot of people didn't.

Our team looks exhausted. JJ Redick said a complaint of SVGs players is that shoot arounds are kneepads, scrapping D, diving for balls no offense for 1-2 hours. No shooting. If you want to shoot, do it on your own time. Wonder if that's why Reggie is getting hospitalized these days.

I'm starting to conclude that this whole team is just mentally weak.

Seriously, they got nobody who can protect the paint but no the pistons refuse to attack the basket. We should be going into the paint every play.

I was thinking that too. A lot of our players are banged up too, Illy, RJ, and Mook.
