sensational

[ComboGuardCity]

Joe Johnson beenkilling us for 5 years now

[Blkbrd671]

actually tobias harris

Source?

Wishful guess because he doesn't like the guy. No one really knows what was said.

lol, i clearly like Harris, i am just not on my knees for him because i see a dunk highlight and ignore defense. ironic coming from a poster who literally hates on a player being the player the pistons want him to be.

don't recall where i saw the news, but just using common sense. Mook is our 4th-5th option on offense and there are countless quotes from the team how we need Mook to be more aggressive offensively , yet all of a sudden he's complaining about touches? you combine that with the fact that SVG moved TH to the bench "so he could get more touches", it seems more likely than not, TH not mook was complaining.

Also if either of you actually paid any attention instead of waiting to troll, you'd see "playerS complained about touches", so it was more than 1 player, but your obviously not interested in that.

Nice SJ

[Natopher]

So (just wanted to throw this out there), in half as many minutes, Beno has scored the same number of points as Reggie on 6 fewer shots, and has 1 more assist.

[Blkbrd671]

Joe Johnson makes me sad every damn time he plays us.

was i the only one that was like, oh thats where joe johnson's at.

sounds about right for this team

[Blkbrd671]

at least with ish and beno, we consistently had players with some self respect

[Blkbrd671]

thing about beno is you have to controll his minutes, because when he gets tired, it impacts him more at his age.

I just don't get SVG. I can understand not wanting to bench Reggie, as we would never be able to trade him for anything ever again. But surely as a coach trying to make the playoffs he has to be able to see that our team runs at its worst when Reggie is on the court, right? RIGHT??

[Blkbrd671]

whats amazing about uth, is most of their great players are all later round picks

First, that's all a bunch of guesses (with seriously fuzzy logic). Second, I'm not the one who replied acting like I said I knew something no one else did. It could have been Harris. It could have been Morris. It could have been Boban. Maybe no one was actually begging for touches at all, and the media just fabricated that. WE DON'T KNOW. You replied like you did.

problem i think is statistically it says RJ in the lineup is much better(i think). i said this before, if we play like we played before RJ's return and end up a .500 team, i'd still watch the team as we played the right way and exciting basketball. Haven't enjoyed pistons basketball for a full game since RJ's return

[mercury]

Like vultures picking at the carcass

[DCintheD]

F*ck this team. They sh^t the bed every 3rd quarter. Svg is horrible at making adjustments.
This team will be mediocre for the next 5 years unless something big happens.

If that's the case, then the stats clearly don't know what they're talking about and SVG shouldn't listen to them.

We seriously need to package RJ and Tobias (or another larger contract player) and trade them from some upgraded talent at SF or PF, otherwise I think we'll be stuck as a fringe playoff team for 3+ years until all the contracts start expiring.

Has the Piston ever had a superstar player?

not going to debate this with you. much more sound logic than claiming it was mook.

Second, I'm not the one who replied acting like I said I knew something no one else did. It could have been Harris. It could have been Morris. It could have been Boban. Maybe no one was actually begging for touches at all, and the media just fabricated that.

except SVg was the one that said players were complaining about touches. I think what you meant is

I DON'T KNOW. .

fixed for you

[The Moose]

Why are we still playing this 5 on the court??

Put some reserves in, the starters couldn't care any less

[ComboGuardCity]

They should be embarrassed but look like they don't give ****
