Great quote. These boys are young and insane - think '85-6-7 Pistons - and they're growing up! It will take time, but this group will do some great things before it's all said and done. Very much looking forward to it!

Drummond had a season best 4 assists tonight, also matching his career best.

Would've made a great 1st rd series reminiscent of that '09 Bulls-Celtics series.

Lol at pistonpowered for blaming KCP for Butler's performance. They don't even watch the game.

Teams just don't have an answer for the Mook/Harris combo. I firmly believe that either one of these players would not look this good isolated on the starting lineup separate from each other.

Because both players are on the floor together and they can not only switch on defense but can both run the exact same offensive sets, it makes them both better.

It's like having two of the exact same player on the floor, a blossoming all-star, only with slightly different strengths, and weaknesses.

This combination is proving devastating to teams to have to gaurd.

This is without question one of the most exciting tandems I've seen in the nba in a long time, and I cannot believe that they are on the Pistons, and both were aquired for next to nothing.

What a tough fought game by both teams. Bulls shot badly in key moments, especially at the end. They went cold.

If Pau Gasol is not part of the Bulls future we need to offer them something for him. Play Drummond a few minutes less, get Gasol in there with the backups. I realize Bulls don't want to help us but if we made it sweet enough who knows?

Pharaoh · Post #455 » by **Pharaoh** » Sun Apr 3, 2016 1:01 pm

Can't wait to see them next season Zeeb after a full training camp

I know you were hyped for this season but unless something goes horribly wrong this off-season I hope you bring it again next pre-season...

You know i dont do hype and **** but I am pumped for the next 2 years!

Dre blossoming into a force of destruction

Harris/Mook combining as a tandem

KCP, SJ, RJ all improving

And the best coach we've had since LB!

We don't need them to help us, he'll can opt out and hit free agency this summer. I do believe he's the player we should look to acquire as well, that would pretty much make us DANGEROUS.

Just watched the replay. What a great game. Still not sure what this version of Stanley does better than Reggie Bullock. He's been bad.

SVG leash has been long on the rook, but i agree that RB should get a shot. SJ has been bad past 3 games. I think SVG is hesitant because SJ and Blake are the only ball handlers on the bench, and bullock is a spot up shooter. I think our bench be better overall with Hilliard+Bullock with Mook and KCP rotating in

lol f* tards

Mook guarded Butler for most of the first half and did a amazing job, Butler got most of his points on drives and put backs. Once KCP switched up on him, seemed like Butler has a harder time getting it to the rim. In reality watching film, it was a team effort defensively, the ability to switch really helped mook and kcp stay in front
