It is not a dream.

Yes - Bradley is light years ahead of KCP defensively and the dude is as professional athlete as someone can get. It’s contagious in the locker room (Ish and Tolliver help this too). SVG has always been a pretty good coach so you were just wrong. The bench has improved significantly, and every starter as well. Drummond growing up and loving his new role passing the ball. Harris is an elite scorer right now. Reggie is healthy and picking his spots scoring. Stanley is Stanley but a good defender. Hopefully he can improve offensively.

Yep, thank you matty. Can’t have one of your highest paid players and rim protector on the bench in the last few minutes of games. The pistons are the top 4th quarter team in the league.

14-6 has a nice ring to it. At the wizards on Friday and sixers on Saturday. A bunch of road games and then the warriors at home. Fuck me, this schedule.

It's just a shame that this team isn't built correctly... Whatever the fuck that means.

Probably like the sixers seems to be the standard go to line for talkers like valenti. The only way is to get high draft picks. THE ONLY WAY OTPT THIS ISNT HARD

Good point, you’re probably right. Young talent must equal championships. This is linear.

How was the game?

This is why I pre-ruined my credit score. I take a shoot-the-hostage approach to personal finance.

I read that today too.

At the wizards (no John Wall) tonight.

Dreadful fucking third quarter and I’ll blame it on Stanley Johnson because he’s tum tum of the pistons

by **Other Teams Pursuing That** Fri Dec 01, 2017 8:45 pm

Drummond has played like shit and Reggie has been nonexistent

by **Other Teams Pursuing That** Fri Dec 01, 2017 8:55 pm

Get Boban out of the fucking game! Herzog!

@JohnnyKaneFSD

In response to Embiid, Drummond told me, "I mean you can't really have a conversation with a man who can't play a back-to-back... I've been playing for six years and I've missed maybe 4-5 games. So when he can play a whole season without taking a rest, he can come talk to me."

Playing like shit and SVG isn’t helping

Doesn’t play Boban in garbage time but plays him in desperate times. He sucks. Cut him.

by **Other Teams Pursuing That** Sat Dec 02, 2017 8:38 pm

Flashbacks to last year the last 4 quarters of ball. Yikes, so much 1 on 1 ball and awful turnovers.

I’m watching both, mainly the stones. Football on in the background.

21 points first 5 minutes of the game and 26 the last 17. Bad.

by **Travis of the Cosmos** Sat Dec 02, 2017 9:02 pm

I meant to say that I was watching the pistons but stopped. Keep me posted

Down 11 8 min left in the 3rd

5 point game in the third travis. The sixers do not impress me. Bradley should be on Covington who is tearing us up.

by **Travis of the Cosmos** Sat Dec 02, 2017 9:24 pm

The sixers have built their team the right way though otpt
