Joe Johnson released.
Blake out until November.

I don't think the playoffs are in the cards.

They’ll make the playoffs, but barely. The east sucks.

You’re telling me they can make it last year but not this year with an improved roster and a weaker east? Huh.

East is better imo. And not sure how the roster is improved? Did they magically find two or three shooters?

The east has the 76ers and bucks. Everyone else is whatever. Last year the raptors were good. Who am i missing? Roster being improved and Casey in his 2nd year is a worthless discussion until they play some games.

Celtics for sure will be good. The bottom is improved bulls, magic, nets, pacers

It’s a battle of attrition too. Coaches have to figure out how to win enough and also save legs for 8 months from now. Brutal season.

Improved roster? I just don’t see it. On paper Rose is a nice addition. But he’s always hurt. Blake griffin was playing on one leg last year and he ain’t getting any younger. Crack head for an owner. RJ will go RJ. Just don’t see it. Miami trending up. I’d say the Pistons ceiling is 7-8 seed. That’s if griffin and rose stay healthy. Which they rarely do.

Ugh. Griffin out 2-3 weeks with hamstring and soreness in knee after offseason surgery. RIP to the season. 19/20 Detroit Pistons Thread 1550444538

Per Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, Griffin is going to be out through the first week of November.

This will likely force the Pistons to play without their best player for the first 10 games of the season depending on how his recovery goes.

Is the rook going to play? I saw he's out tonight

Stripes loving some Trae young and he's putting on a show 26 in the first half
