We also face the Kings twice in the near future. I think it's time Yabu pays back some of that free money he's been given his entire career and bounces Fox for a nice 2 week ankle sprain.

Flame thrower Bogi Bogdanovic is back for the Kings tonight, finally will not see Justin Jackson on the floor.

Will they go small with both Hield and Bog starting at wings?

If I had to guess they start with Hield and Bog is running the 2nd unit and in the crunch time going small.

Sexton isn’t going to be able to contain Schroder. OKC’s offense is going to fly.

Superb ball movement by OKC leads to a Grant corner 3. Love it!

Yeah - that was funny.

Neither of these teams look all that hot. OKC just isn’t the same w/o Westbrook. People dog him, but he just makes them so much better and more exciting to watch.

Crazy how JR is starting now after all that stuff with them taking him out of the rotation. I know people are hurt, but it’s still funny - almost like the Cavs realized they were wrong and need him to play. Lol.

How many have the Pistons lost in a row so far? Five games?

They are down fifteen to the Magic :lol:

God. So start 0-4 and then lose 5, going on 6, strait. What a mess. The East outside of the top teams is so bad - I know it’s always been that way, but way worse this season.

Pretty sure the same thing happened when Blake joined the team, it looked like a masterstroke for 4 games
