Just for sharts and grins I looked up what tickets are going for on Stubhub. There are some cheaper tickets but plenty in the lower bowl that are well over $100 and what I would classify as being pretty average from a location standpoint. Who the hell would pay that?

Yay, another nothing win that will bring us a step closer to the 8th seed and trick Gores into thinking he needs to go for the playoffs.

For a better on the floor product I might. Depends on the seats and the game.

I wonder if Dre gets motivated by all star voting. He's sitting tenth right now, literally less than half the votes of Tacko Fall. But really, has there been a better end-of-the-bench player to cheer for? Chuck Nevitt? Fennis Dembo? We would all be pulling for Casey to choose Fall over Maker if he played on the Pistons.

That was the implication; who would pay that much to see THIS team?

Yeah. I'm sure when they planned the move downtown to take advantage of the location they probably thought we'd have a decent team by now.

Such is life.

That was pretty sweet by Sekou

Sekou i love it

DetroitPistons · Post #11 » by **DetroitPistons** » Fri Jan 10, 2020 12:23 am

It might just be a small sample size but it feels like Sekou is more involved in the offense this game. Getting more touches in general.

Sekou is a good defender. He just looks bad on some possessions because he's still learning but you can tell this dude is going to be a good defender if he keeps his motor up.

That defense from Sekou was nuts

DetroitPistons · Post #14 » by **DetroitPistons** » Fri Jan 10, 2020 12:27 am

Sekou waaay too aggressive on D lol. I like it but don't get in foul trouble. He got lucky on a couple plays already.

Yeah thats something hes gotta learn. He tries to play way to tight way to often and eventually that gets you

How Thon Maker still sees the floor is beyond me. He just flat out sucks.

Drummond is a beast. His dribble drive game is getting better and better.

MotownMadness · Post #18 » by **MotownMadness** » Fri Jan 10, 2020 1:00 am

Drummonds just too strong for Thompson

DetroitPistons · Post #19 » by **DetroitPistons** » Fri Jan 10, 2020 1:01 am

And you all want to trade this guy for a possible mid to late FRP, if not 2 SRPs. You all are nuts. What next, are we going to suggest trading Kennard away?

Drummond is a negative player against any decent center in the league. His stats don't translate into wins and he has penchant for making dumb plays. I don't see him as being a valuable part of a championship roster so yes, I want him traded.
