It amazes me every night how flawlessly the Pistons have executed the tank
Yea, he was young for his grade. Not that it matters since he is in the pros now but people should not forget he won player of the year his senior year of high school. He has the talent and no one will work harder. Iām confident he will be hitting threes at a nice rate sooner than later to expand his impact that he can have.
He was a really nice foul shooter in college and he was already showing the midrange face up in college and it looked clean and smooth.
Kind of lost in the shuffle but Plums had what was probably his best game as a Piston. 14 points (7-10 FG), 12, rebounds, 7 assists, 3 blocks, and 2 steals.
I actually like Plumlee, I just thought it was a strange move for the current set up. he is a solid big though imo.
So far. In the Gores era theyāve never been able to keep it going for a full year.
My son and I watched Blake score 50 in Oct 2018. Itās hard to see him slowing down so much.
They usually start out competitive and then fall off. Last season, they were all ready to go pure tank after Blake and Luke were shut down and they dealt Andre and Reggie but Covid took away their last 22 (I think) games. With the pace they were on, I think they wouldāve only won 1 or 2 remaining games.
So youāre saying that it takes some time before you get to be good at being bad?
Josh Jackson is a nice pick up reclamation project for the Pistons. He can play athletic, skilled and long.
What are your guys thoughts on the draft. Is Cade everyoneās favorite? Green?
Is it just me who thinks Kuminga is the top guy? I donāt see him ranked much higher than four or five in mock drafts but whenever I watch him he looks like he might be the best prospect to me.
Also Stewart got the start tonight and it looked like he did his thing in thirty minutes. Anybody watch it live?
As a Pistons fan, this is the order of preference for me in the draft:
- Cade
- Suggs
- Kuminga
- Green
- Mobley
I think all 5 have the ability to be high level players so the Pistons need to execute this tank to ensure they pick in the top 3-5
I watched it last night and I like Stewart. Very active, decent shot, and good timing for shot blocking. Only 19, should improve.
Do the Piston go for a guard or best player available ?
I think they need to find themselves a scorer, or at least a guy who can facilitate scoring. If Pistons get unlucky and fall out of the top 4, Iād probably just take BPA and draft Mobley.
Yup Iām a fan of Stewart. Great fit in Detroit
Cade, Kuminga then Mobley of the players Iāve seen. (Havenāt really watched Suggs). Moses Moody maybe if they drop?
If they drop, Iād be interested in Scottie Barnes
Kuminga is like Patrick Williams, but better. Iād definitely have him in the top 3
As long as they donāt drop from the top 5, I think theyāll get a long term starter.
Stewart brings the ruckus! Heās a lot of fun to watch and heās working on his outside shot. He hit his first 3 earlier this week and did nail another one last night but a whistle came right before he launched it.
Last night, he also had a total Rodman-play where he blocked Sabonis and then beat everyone down the floor for a dunk. Heās all hustle.
