NYLion Posted Monday at 05:44 PM Posted Monday at 05:44 PM (edited) Pretty manageable schedule coming up. Not that the games will be easy by any means but they have 1 real playoff contender on the schedule in the next 12 games... @Utah, Clippers, Warriors perhaps without Butler, Blazers Wizards (twice), Thunder at home, @Pelicans, Heat and Mavs probably without AD then Pelicans and Spurs at home This will be an opportunity to make a real run at the 4 seed or at the very least strengthen their hold on a playoff spot.

Deleterious Posted Monday at 06:06 PM Posted Monday at 06:06 PM Remaining SoS. Milwaukee has it rough while Indiana and Detroit are the same. We do play Milwaukee the finals 2 games of the season. https://www.tankathon.com/remaining_schedule_strength Quote

It's crazy because if home court is up for grabs in a 4/5 matchup with the Bucks we could wind up with what amounts to 2 extra playoff games in that series. Not that I want any part of the Bucks in a first round series. Indy would be the most fun with the all the ejections and suspensions that are sure to come. These teams hate each other and I can't see Stew and Holland making it through that series without getting tossed and/or suspended at least once. Knicks could be fun based upon how we've played them so far, but you're playing 5 on 9 with the refs and Adam Silver all needing NYK to advance to the second round for ratings. Quote
Deleterious Posted Monday at 08:42 PM Posted Monday at 08:42 PM Stew now listed as questionable. Quote

Sports_Freak Posted Tuesday at 02:59 AM Posted Tuesday at 02:59 AM I really like the NBA review policy. It's quick and they give an excellent explanation. It's really well done... 1 Quote
Sports_Freak Posted Tuesday at 03:13 AM Posted Tuesday at 03:13 AM I say this just about every game but dang, this Piston team is fun to watch. The fast pace makes it so exciting. 1 Quote
Adullin Posted Tuesday at 04:52 AM Posted Tuesday at 04:52 AM How could anyone else get coach of the year? 1 1 Quote
RandyMarsh Posted Tuesday at 12:28 PM Posted Tuesday at 12:28 PM Now makes 11-7 against the west so we're not just beating up on lowly East teams. Quote
Deleterious Posted Tuesday at 03:25 PM Posted Tuesday at 03:25 PM The odd stat of the day. Beasley is only shooting 66% from the line. I would love someone to dig in and find the best/worst 3PT/FT shooting seasons of all time. Making things even more odd. 66% is a full 10 points below his career average. Quote

My only shot in the dark theory would be that JB has them all playing at a higher energy level - more running, more defending, that you see guys are getting to the line really out of breath. Maybe that's a bigger issue for a guy who's been in the league for a while and is acclimated to less pace. Quote
Deleterious Posted Tuesday at 03:58 PM Posted Tuesday at 03:58 PM 65 guys shoot >=38% from three and have enough attempts to qualify for the leaderboard. The average from the line for those 65 is 82.4%. 3 other players in that group shoot sub 70%. Dorian Finney-Smith, Josh Hart, and Ochai Agbaji. All 3 shoot exactly 66.7% from the line. Sam Hauser shoots 100% from the line. But has only taken 4 free throws on 312 field goal attempts. Quote

I’d have laughed at anyone suggesting home court for a play in game. And here we are, home court for the first round is a legit possibility. 1 Quote
