Heat covered -7.5 here in Detroit earlier in the week, winning by 10. Then they thumped the Pacers by 25 as a home dog the other night.

Line is 11.5 tonight.

I'm not sure it's a good idea to watch this one, without Cade and Lee, also even if Stewart is not that good, he was kinda our only big.

I guess it's the Diallos time to shine.

At least we have Lyles, Garza and Cheick Diallo for center depth. :o

Do I really want to sit through this? Am I that much of a fan?

I'm watching our boys, those who aren't are TRAITORS. When we win the title in 3 years I'll remind everyone of how they abandoned our boys 3 years ago that night in Miami, oh yeah.

Damnit, Im watching this turd, I remember trying to route for Eric Leckner during the teal era. This is much much worse.

So, there's a new rule that contact on Pistons drives are no longer fouls? I mean, so it would appear.
(I decided to watch this one the same way you slow down going by a big crash on the highway. ;-)

Garza should be starting at Center, we have won 5 games, the kid eats up space, can rebound and score down low.

I want to like Josh Jackson, but he just makes so many stupid plays.

JJ shows that you can have all the talent in the world, but if the mental side isn't there it just doesn't matter.

Team is playing really hard and we're up 2 half way through the 2nd which is amazing... BUT Tyler Herro is becoming a problem for sure.

Bey was pretty angry coach didn't challenge that... Would have been huge if it was Lowry's 4th foul.
