Detroit Pistons thread: With the exchange rate that’s a win streak

Scoot is better than Ivey and Cade.

and Cade being out doesn’t lock us into Victor Tug . We were playing bottom 4 basketball even if Cade finished out the season. It just guarantees us a 28% chance at first or 2nd pick

 

I wouldn't trade out of a top 2 pick next year if they got one. Take Scoot 2 and package one of the guards in a trade at a future date when you figure out what you got with all 3

 

Yeah, same difference to me. Nobody expected to win this season. I no longer expect us to top 28 wins though

 

Take the best player available and play positionless basketball. No one on this team is actually untouchable.

 

Edwards must have had a late night with Weaver in LA. Still hasn’t tweeted about Cade yet.

 

Given Cade size and ability to rebound, hell Ivey, Cade and Scoot may all be able to play together if you had the right 4 and 5 with them

 

Marc Stein beat ya to the story two hours ago Jimmy.

 

We are about to be historically bad

 

Trade Bogdanovic and things going to get real ugly

 

Im blaming this injury, his inability to put on muscle, and his shrinking from 6’8 to 6’6 on his diet. Get some red meat in ya imo

 

The Five Thirty Eight simulator has us finishing with 20 wins, only team lower is Houston at 19. Next highest team above us is Orlando at 26. I don’t think this takes into account Cade injury either.

 

This team is going to be historically bad the rest of the season. Someone needs to address why this team has so many injuries so frequently to so many young players

 

Edwards probably bricked up when tweeting this

 

Killian is playing about at the level he was expected to as a rookie. Let’s not over praise that at this point

 

This Kings crowd is wild. When is the last time the Pistons crowd was like this?

 

If you could witness Kevin Huerter every home game, wouldn’t you be hyped?

 

9 pts on 3/9 shooting in a game he's starting. It's embarrassing what these writers are doing with him

 

What’s also embarrassing is that we won’t hear a peep from the writers either about Casey and his job security.

 

at the Palace. should have never left.

 

Casey is going to move to the front office at the end of the season. He’s doing what they signed him up to do - manage the tank

 

What he really wanted to say was: don’t write off Killian Hay3s

 

Markkanen went for 15/7 and 18/9 hits first two years. He wasn’t shooting 19% 15 games into year 3

 

I'm not sure if you know this, but Killian's been on one over his last 6.75 games. On fire from three.

 

I hate these uniforms now than I did when they were new.

 

Kevin knox seems improved

 

In his last 1 games, Knox is on fire and averaging 17 on 70% shooting

 

You don’t give up on guys like knox because lauri markkanen

 

Signed,

- James Edwards
- Omari Sankofa
- Al Avila

 

Absolutely not what you want from this team tonight. A win and it was lead by a 33 year old and a 31 year old and you didn't even play Ivey in crunch time

 

When Killian plays like shit, time to jump on the Knoxxx bandwagon. He is averaging 18.5 ppg over his last two games if you didn't know

 

- Kevin Knox

 

Fucking hell, stop winning

 

Greg Kelser suggesting this is a playoff team...

 

Cade was actually the problem

 

Damning indictment on our drafts, win two tough road games when Cade, Stew and Bey out (and Killian end of today's game)

 

If Knox can be an 8-10 ppg guy that’s a big win

 

I love Duran!

 

He scored two points since this tweet (and it was while I was typing up this post).

 

Bojan’s injury was nasty but he walked it off. Casey going apeshit at the end was nice to see defending his players

 

Killian being a useful player is a nice change

 

Yikes

 

Beef’s first game back too

 

Oh my

 

I watched too much of that game

 

Did they win

 

But Killian has been averaging like 13 and 6 over 5 games getting starting minutes. That's more impressive
