Cade looks like he's around the size of GTJ. Don't know where all this 6'8 stuff came from.

The NBA officially listed him at 6’6”. The 6’8” thing was 100% BS and I’m starting to wonder if Detroit didn’t even care

He played PG so it makes it seem like he's bigger than he is

Cade is 0/14 from deep in his first 2 games. 3/22 overall

Cade just doesn’t look very comfortable out there. I imagine the percentages will go up once he’s better acclimated. You don’t just forget how to shoot.
not strong, only aggresive cuz the power ain't directed/ that's why, we are subjected to the will of the oppressive

His form kinda looks a bit different to me. Looked on the Pistons Reddit and some have said they apparently tried to tweak his shot (no clue why)

Fultz vibes if that’s true. Some franchises just don’t know how to do things the right way lol

No training camp, no pre season, coming off an injury. It’s gonna take time.

He's also pretty boring to watch.


I don't see star upside, just an average rotation guard lool


It seems to me all the hype was when Cade was thought to be 6' 8". But he's not, and the expectations never recalibrated.

Mobley and Scottie. Not sure who I would pick #1. But I'm happy with either.

[edited to add] All those former Team USA guys are still buddies. I'm sure it will be a thing when Scottie makes the playoffs with the Raptors, and none of the rest do. Sometime in the next ten years, Raps will sign a premium US free agent.


Yeah, it was really shocking how small he looked in summer league, would've though 6'5 at most. His explosive athleticism, rather lack of it, is nothing to write about either.

Cade, Suggs, and Green are all struggling with the physicality of the NBA so far. Surprisingly, the "skinny" guy Mobley has really held his own. Barnes' physical attributes on the other hand have always been a strength.

ujiri firing casey after coy was the best thing he could've done for him. he got a sweetheart deal from the pistons and was able to get an extension on top of that. unreal.

Knew Sixers were doomed to fail when they didn't want to give up Maxey and Tisse for Lowry lmfao.

Not a serious franchise. :lol:

I'm rooting for Lowry. Miami looks like the best team so far in the season.

Didn't attend the combine measurements, looks to be around 6'5-6'6 but doesn't matter as he has those T Rex arms that makes him play smaller that his listed height.

When did this failure that you speak of happen? Didn't the NBA season just start and the Sixers are 5-2 with Maxey as starting PG?

Yeah...because paying a guy $40 million a year to NOT play a single game for your team is the epitome of success lmfao!
