I've never seen so many clinks, clanks, and airballs from an NBA team! :? ...seemingly always followed by clean swishes on the other end. :roll:

I suppose it doesn't help when you have two kids (Cunningham and Hayes) running the offense. This team better get their shooting eyes straight before the season gets away from them.

Will the Pistons ever be relevant again? It's been 13 Goddamn years since they've done anything of note. It's getting harder and harder to sit down and enjoy a game from anyone!

They were making the ECF as late as 2007-08. Ever since then, it's been a crash and it seems at best, most years, we're mid to bottom pack. I just don't get it.

It doesn't surprise me that the Pistons are dead last in a thirty-team league in team shooting percentage. :rolleyes I think they should hire a team optometrist. :razz

Dwane Casey needs to be fired by season's end if this team doesn't start to play more unselfishly and with greater defensive intensity.

I think you saw the "greater defensive intensity" last night in a win over the Pacers. Sub-100 point games should be the nightly goal for this team, as it's been for every successful Pistons team.

Rumors are afloat of a possible Ben Simmons for Jeremi Grant trade. :shock: Why in the world would the Pistons want to take aboard the NBA's biggest problem child? :roll:

Evan Mobley for the Cavs suffered a right elbow injury, which is why he want 0 for 11 from the field three games back.

He is expected to miss up to four weeks of action.

I agree with Moldy; I do not want Ben Simmons here!!! That guy makes over $34 million a season, and his current deal runs through the 2024-25 season.

The good news: Cade Cunningham is taking over this team! I'm not sure how injured Kelly Olynyk's presence can improve the team's horrendous shooting.

Complete garbage performance from Killian Hayes last night.

This was the 11th post here and the statement could still be true when the season ends.

It’s really tempting to get this to 82 or something.

It is certainly possible this year's team will break the franchise's all time record for ineptitude.

Dwane Casey has a chance to break Dick Vitale's record!

If the Pistons lose both this afternoon and tomorrow, they will also set the all-time franchise record for lengthiest losing streak.
