okc should be fined for putting out this lineup for a nationally televised game.

Lebrun of the athletic just did a big four part article on where the trade targets are going to go in the nhl. listed about 20 players. none were predicted to go to detroit. does he know something? i doubt it. nobody knows anything about what detroit is doing. my point being we see what we want to see and we focus on detroit. i doubt the performance of detroit's three best players means anything in the big scheme of things, unless you also assume players now all want to go to winnipeg or edmonton or minnesota or new jersey? maybe montreal because salfkovsky played so well for the czechs?

i think we focus on detroit and detroit players. is new jersey suddenly where everyone wants to go because of jack hughes? there is plenty of buzz in the social media world about teams other than detroit, but we dont pay any attention to it.

washed up.

youre reading a lot into the olympics. what players now view detroit as a great destination?

unfortunately this.

like lauri markannen...

about time they sent the lions to germany.

the good news is we were able to free up enough money to sign daniss jenkins for next year. and we didnt have to trade tobias harris because he's great in the locker room.

until tatum comes back.

ivey washing out kills this team. he was their second scorer to help cade. without him, they tanked for one superstar, a defensive small forward who can guard 1-3, a rim running center, and a defensive role player. that's not a championship core. they have to get another scorer. but trajan sat on his hands and did nothing in a season where the second best team is the flawed knicks and the injured celtics.

this game is a bit flukish that the pistons are shooting so poorly, but it does show how they are going to struggle if teams double cade hard in key moments. if he isnt superman, they could be in trouble becauae their other two best players (ausar/duren) cant score without him.

isnt this what theyre going to see every night in the playoffs? if cade is going to be human in any game the pistons are in big trouble. there is no other consistent scorer on the team. but thank goodness they didnt go all in at the deadline for a #2 scorer...

if cade is shooting 5-25 youre going to lose to the pelicans, much less the spurs.

shooting less than 20% from 3 = loss

if there is one franchise that has received their success largely from the league, its the spurs. yeah yeah, parker and ginobli. but they dont win **** without duncan. and befoee him robinson. and now wemby AND castle AND harper. **** you, nba. and **** off, spurs.

weegar's play has fallen off, iirc.

they beat the knicks in new york and now everyone is on the bandwagon.

today has been the greatest "make fun of canada" day of all time. no offense to canadians.

try the mute button. not only does it filter out annoying background noise, but you dont have to listen to doris burke either!

adam silver is going to fine them $650k for making such an obvious tanking maneuver.

And its George Washington's birthday too! it was destiny.

the real reason we scored was dylan larkin distracting everyone, pulling the defense away from a wide open jack hughes. 🙂

watching that replay, makar with a terrible pinch attempt led to the breakaway.
