Hope the Pistons re-sign Donta Hall before the next game with the Bucks.

I didn't see anything dirty from him at all. Established players just don't like it when a rookie comes in and gets physical and battles them. Good on Stewart for not backing down from anyone. Players battling for rebounding position and going to push and shove that is what happens down low.

yeah stewart hustles super hard, is physical and annoying to play against but he hasn't done anything bush league or dirty. giannis in this game alone had a couple fouls on grant that were more "bush league" than anything stewart has done this season.

Having three of our four rookies come in and play hard is great. Stewart's intensity is contagious.

Why not both?

I actually really liked Donta Hall in the few games he played at the end of the season. He had a few possessions in a row where he blocked guys, got an offensive rebound, got a contested defensive rebound, got another block. For a 15th guy getting 800k a year, you could a hell of a lot worse. I wish he were on the team instead of Okafor.

also, not trying to crap on hayes but saben lee today is a good example of how much hayes still has to develop skill-wise. lee was getting into the paint fairly often, he was just hampered by poor touch on his floaters and some poor decision-making in terms of his passing. i hope hayes comes back healthy but also hope he takes the time when he's off to work on his dribble (and shot when he's healthy enough).

i'm liking bey. seeing a lineup of lee/jackson/bey/grant with either plumlee or stewart could be a lot of fun to watch.

Can we please start this man over Wayne Ellington

Once Blake eventually leaves

Jackson/Bey/Grant at the 2/3/4 is quite nice

Throw in a Cunningham or Suggs

Which sucks because the Pistons REALLY need this win.

why do you have this mentality that any time someone says the team sucks, that means they believe the team should be desperately trying to win?

Why do you have this mentality that bad match ups for the Pistons are a problem?

noting an observation is not equal to suggesting its a problem, is it?

Wasn't Lee coached by Stackhouse?

Personally think we should sit Hayes out the season, rehab his injury and work with him on the weaknesses in his game.

Maybe it's the offense we're running but every time he brought the ball up court he's looking to drop it off to Blake and Plumlee then goes moves off the ball

That's not going to help him long term, that's not giving him the keys to the offense.

Can't judge a PG when he's not conducting the offense.

In the few full games I've seen (2!) I blame Casey and Blake for putting a kid out there and essentially telling him to go sit in the corner off ball.

A season of that isn't developing him so red shirt him instead

Duly noted. I shall flog myself accordingly in order to serve proper penance for my crime.

He’s also made only 3 two pointers, while taking a significant number.

Like the guy but he needs to learn how to finish around the basket.

His 3p% is 46% and the 2p% is 15%. That’s insane.
