    Moving pistons from the suburbs really helped attendance

    Is Killian Hayes the worst player in the NBA. I think he might be.

    Killian just made a runner, got an assist and forced a turnover.

    Can’t wait to see how Edwards and the rest of the slap dick beat writers spin this awful loss. At this point, you gotta Fire Casey. Team hadn’t won in a month. This team does not play well together. Could blame Weaver too.

    This team is historically bad. Getting stomped at home to another terrible team. There is one player on this roster that looks to be a starter on a good team (2 with a healthy Grant) and they lucked into him winning the lottery.

    Casey rotations and lack of any offensive strategy annoys me, but he's also playing with some terrible players so I think it's as much on Weaver

    Play Garza more....at least it's more fun when he is out there. More scoring on offense and give up more when he's in, better than just a ton missed shots

    This is a brutal list. Maybe tanking isn't the best strategy

    I do like what Killian *can do* but I don’t like what he does. It’s like 80/20 but the 80 is “he doesn’t belong on the floor” and the 20 is “he pairs up well with Cade and looks like he belongs”

    Johnny Kane is so much better than Blaha. Should give him a chance to be PBP for Tigers.

    Not a good night for late roster adds to convince teams to sign them

    Walton, Pickett, and Sirvydis played a combined 67 minutes, shot a combined 1-20 for a combined stat line of 3 points 8 assists 11 rebounds 8 fouls

    I am not an expert on any of the putrid Kings line ups from years ago, but that may have been the least talented NBA team I’ve ever seen. I know there were extenuating circumstances, but the talent level was awful.

    I'd say Horton-Tucker is the heir to the Kuzma throne as "young player Laker fans/media talk about like a superstar who no one would have ever heard of if they played for 28 other teams," but that seems kind of offensive to Kuzma's accomplishments right now.

    Zach Lowe and Hollinger (I think it was Hollinger) both think the Pistons should do a Grant for Patrick Williams swap. Seems like it would be the best case scenario, no?

    We would have to take back contracts i imagine but it seems worth it for Williams. Plus I believe is Williams is out for the rest of the year, so it helps the tank.

    This has been the popular rumor with NBA analysts for a while now. Have to believe if it ever becomes a real offer, Weaver will jump all over it. He supposedly loved Williams going into the draft last year.

    I don’t think they have been that bad but I think we can all agree that trading Plumlee was a disaster

    okay but what does that have to do with potential Grant trades? If anything it should make getting young prospects back more important

    Great start to the year. Going to be interesting if they can find minutes for Cade with the way Diallo, Walton and Stanley are playing right now.

    I don't know what got into Bey when everyone was out with COVID, but it sure beats whatever the hell his first two months were.

    Nice win tonight.
