Do the pistons players know it's not a zero-sum game? If cade gets better it doesn't mean you have to suck.

You would have a hard time finding two more useless starters than THJ and Harris.

 

[Deleterious]

Red Panda! The Kings brought a halftime legend out for the holidays.

[Deleterious]

Thompson needs to learn he doesn't always have to shoot when he's on the break. 

He went right into 2 defenders. He should have pulled it back out and reset waiting for help.

[Deleterious]

Where is Blaha?

[Deleterious]

Reed has a very unique looking jump shot.

[Deleterious]

Great defense from Duren there, really nice.

[Deleterious]

Good God Beasley is a monster.

[Deleterious]

I mean that is decent defense from Ivey on Fox. He just made a shot. 

Down 3 with it, shot clock off.

[Deleterious]

Ivey with the quick two. I like that more than the three point heave. You miss that and it's over.

[Deleterious]

Ivey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Hits the 3 and fouled chance to put them up 1 with 3 second left.  

[Deleterious]

What a ****ing win

[Deleterious]

Count it

and the foul!

[buddha]

how much do we need to pay for Fox?

[NYLion]

What a wild finish, biggest win in a long time. I think they need to re-sign Beasley, he fits like a glove here.

I think everyone agrees they should keep him.  Its just if they have the cap space or not.

I just think they need to make it work. He's young enough to be a key part of this team for the next few years.

Now for the bad.

Harris and THJ combined to score 10 points tonight.  The Pistons are basically starting games and 2nd halves playing 5 on 3 with those two guys on the court.

[Deleterious]

Not sure how likely it is.  But 5th seed isn't totally crazy.  Especially if the injured Magic guys don't get back fast.  I think Milwaukee, Cleveland, Boston, and New York end up top 4 when its all said and done.

Seeing as it was the pistons I can't believe the foul wasn't overturned and the reviewed showed that his shoelace was on the line so it got ruled a 2pter.

I know it's highly unlikely but if we were to draw the Knicks I think we'd have a relatively good chance of winning.

By relatively I mean maybe 1 out of 4 or 5 which compared to essentially zero the last time 3 times we made the playoffs is kinda hopeful.

We have zero chance against Cleveland or Boston and only a Giannis injury chance against Milwaukee.
