Betrayer Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) On paper you'd expect us to lose game against teams like the Nuggets, Bucks, and Suns. But when these teams are sitting (or losing) their best players, you're just throwing away gifts. It's also really painful to watch Monty slowly learn the things we all know. Took him 10+ games to learn that you need spacing around Cade. Now I see he needs to learn the lesson that Stewart can't play Center except in rare matchups. That stretch in the 2nd half last night was atrocious, just like last year when Bagley was out and Stew played a ton of Center. He also needs to learn that if you do wind up playing Stewart at Center, then Ausar is the guy in the dunker spot or setting the screen and Stew needs to be the guy on the three point line spacing the court, not the reverse. Some of those plays down the stretch were painful with Stew in the dunker spot and Ausar crashing in as well, so the paint just gets totally clogged. Edit: I should also say that this is on Weaver as well. We needed our 3rd center to be a rebounding veteran big man and we got Wiseman instead. He can't be trusted to play real minutes and now here we are with Bagley starting and Stew playing Center minutes.

Shinzaki Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Ausar is a normal Dennis Rodman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hart Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 Hopefully the Pistons start Bojan and Ausar together. Kind of looking forward to seeing what that looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the NBA just keeps getting bigger in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1984Echoes Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 I thought Rodman was 6' 9". Probably 6' 8" without shoes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
