Game 47: Pistons (21-25) @ Heat (17-30) - 7:30 PM EST 

Post#1 » by Jaisy » Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:57 pm

aand there it it is. The hottest team in the NBA - the Miami Heat on 6W streak. We are flying all the way down to Florida and take Waiters and Miami. Snapping their streak is a possible mission, Hassan will not play, I believe. It's time for Dre to finally come up and put some kind of a good performence. We played against them at the beginning of this month, we won but it wasn't an easy one. Bucks are not in a great shape lately, Bulls having problems with chemistry, so it's time to make a run on the 8th spot. Let's do this before Sixers will catch us lol. DEEEEEEEEETROIT BASKETBAAAAAAAAAAALLL!!

The Miami Heat are preparing to tank. Whiteside barely plays and if Dion Waiters keeps this up, Pat Riley will have a strange injury occur while Waiters goes to pick some tomatoes in his garden thereby missing 6-8 weeks.

So, we'll win this game. Everyone will be happy, SVG will feel great about the 4 days off (especially with how good Baynes is...barf...then rip Stanley and play him 4 minutes). Then we'll move onto good teams again and lose. Again.

Should be an easy win but you never know with this team.

I still can't believe how wide open the East is with nearly ever team struggling out there.

While we flounder even harder. We're trying so hard to not obtain the 8th seed, this team is so weird.

Would rather miss the playoffs than get the 8 seed

Well, Caldwell-Pope can't defend everybody or be everywhere on the court at the same time. :lol: :cry:

Big game for Coach SVG.

* Detroit is coming off 4 days rest; while the Heat are on the 2nd of a back-to-back.

* Detroit is fully healthy; while the following players are out for the Heat:
Hassan Whiteside
Josh Richardson
Tyler Johnson
Justise Whislow

A loss would be unacceptable.

Watching Kansas vs Kentucky, I would sacrifice the rest of the season to get ahold of Monk.

It's surprising what a team of scrubs that bring effort and try every game can do.

Instead of some players that feel entitled and just put up numbers. Sucks really. It's not just or team or players either, some players people want to trade for probably fall in that category too

Before RJ made that, I was thinking he is going to have a huge game. We will see

God I hate the running hook that Drummond does, its almost a guarantee that he goes for it everytime he gets the ball too.

He heard you. I really like him shooting it, but hate when he does the ones in very bad position

The defensive duo of Reggie and Dre is just appalling. Some guy named McGruber just blew by Reggie and took advantages of Dre's HORRID rim defense.
