Meadows makes that play look easy in centerfield also.

Seems to be DiVincenco should have been the only one ejected in that skirmish. I did not see every little detail on the back end but the officials seems like they way overreacted with 7 total ejections.

I don't know what is going on with Ausar but the ceiling is a lot lower if his role is going to be reduced.

It's weird seeing Cade not get blitzed every time he touches the ball. He's off to a hot start. If Ivey can develop into all-star type player, it would bode very well for Cade.

I didn't see the whole game but the Piston's defense was outstanding from what I saw. There has definitely been a culture shift where all five guys on the court are working hard on defense a lot more than most NBA teams. Stewart and Ausar set the tone. Obviously, the coaches deserve a lot of credit. And having meaningful games is a big part of it also. It's too bad Steph banked in that three late in the game. That was probably the difference.

Cade's great but we got to figure out how to create offense late in games without turning it over. This seems like it has been an ongoing issue for Cade specifically. Teams just blitz him pretty much as soon as he crosses half court. I thought it was interesting that the Warriors moved Steph off the ball quite a bit late in the game.

Stewart has done a respectable job on Jokic when he can stay on the floor. And by respectable, I mean relative to how we look against Jokic when he is not out there. He's just an impossible cover.

I know Ivey has never been known as a great defender but this game is a great example of how important his growth on defense would be for us. Murray is an extremely tough matchup for Ausar and we just have nobody who can guard him. Cade expends most of his energy on offense and is not really built to be a shut down defender against guys like Murray anyway. We experienced the same thing with Trae Young. And we probably would have experienced the same thing with Jalen Brown if he wasn't injured.

Not sure what is going on with Cade tonight but I didn't realize he still had a game this bad in him.

They are going to need Beasley to bail them out tonight. Ideally, Cade and Beasley both get it going.

Stewart has a bit of Ben Wallace in him with his timing and anticipation on defense around like rim. Like Ben, he plays much bigger than his size.

Cade in a mini slump right now. Was not great against the Clippers or Boston and is off to a slow start tonight.

I thought they said calf injury on tv... February has been Ausar's best month statistically. I don't think it's a coincidence the Pistons are hot right now. We can't afford to lose him.

Typical...the NBA CBA is a joke.

He definitely rolled his ankle. Hopefully, that's the extent of it.
