Duren: "I'm humbled to be mentioned in the same sentence as one of the all time greats. It's me and Wilt."

The lack of creativity from the coaching staff last night is stunning. Every single time down it was the exact same thing. Cade starting with the ball in his hand at the top of the key. The Cavs defense was in position before Cade even crossed mid-court because they knew exactly what was coming. The same exact thing over and over. We knew months ago this tactic would be deployed against Cade. The staff had the entire season to come up with a way to counter it, and they obviously have found nothing. Just running the same garbage over and over and hope it works isn't a strategy. Put 4 guys on one side of the floor and let Cade ISO on the other. Set the screen with a shooter instead of a big. How about starting Cade off ball. Put him on the baseline, set a down pick to free him up. Start him off ball in the corner, give it to Harris or Duren in the high post, bring Cade to the ball for a direct hand off. How about run a PnR with Jenkins and Duren and have Cade act as a weak side cutter. Get him moving! If a team is going to double a guy you want him moving when he gets the ball. Does that stop the double? No, its still coming. But maybe now its a step late because he gets the ball in a different area of the floor. Maybe it gets caught up in traffic. Maybe they just have a brain fart and screw up the double because they are seeing a different offensive set and have to think on the fly. Stop running the Cade sledgehammer from the top of the key every damn play. The fact an NBA coach and his staff couldn't come up with a different play to get Cade better looks is mind-blowing. It should concern everyone moving forward.

It is getting more difficult for me to care...

Not mentioned in that thumbnail...people believe he has staged multiple assassination attempts. And that he's also widely perceived to be a pedo.

Thompson should have been at the line with .5 of a second left in regulation.

Pretty big choke job

The defense is so much better without Duren on the court.

watch his dumb ass put duren back in the game. you score ofd defense, energy, and getting cade or tobias switched onto mitchell. DO THAT! stop searching for spacing your roster doesnt have and lean into your strength.

Harden needs to really get seriously fouled. A Rick Mahorn type foul.

Detroit playing 5 on 8 in this series.

I didn’t see an ear bite.

Time for Paul Reed.

The leagues last two minute report said the no call on Allen was the correct call. Here is their reasoning.

MEH MEH MEH

As someone that moved to Detroit last year (four years in Ann Arbor previously, and many years in the burbs prior to that), this makes me happy. I’ve loved my neighborhood so far, and there’s so much to do in the city these days.

Here we go again.

If Keith hit that, it wouldn’t be a HR

I know it's not true but good lord it seems like Detroit teams always get jobbed on calls, reviews and non calls.......

At least if Gage plays first he won’t have to make that many throws

We essentially have no choice but to play him and hope he helps the team or at least improves his value for trade. But we also need to be planning for a new first baseman next season and if one become available before to make the move.

Right, The experience would not have been complete without a correction from Shelton.

The Tigers offensive roster is a series of unmade decisions..offer Gleyber arb because it's convenient, roll Tork out there just hoping and praying he will get better based on inertia. Sticking to the platoon system with guys can't replicate outlier seasons. That's why it looks so hapless sometimes. Greene, Dingler, and McGonigle will be around after the lockout ends. I can't say who they should commit to beyond that. We can't do anything about the pitching..there is just natural attrition and guys get hurt. We will get some injured guys back and others will get hurt.

When Van Earl Wright had his brief stopover in Detroit they had some fun with that concept. It was a night of a snow storm and they had him take a turn reading the school closings. When he got to L'anse Creuse the others started laughing like "Ok, how's he going to do this one?' Another is Westland. We say it West Land. Foreign readers of things like traffic and news reports will get caught saying "Westlund" Near me is a street called Dartmouth. I say Dart Mouth. Everyone did. Then I moved to Croissant after getting married. I said it "Cruh-sant". then I got scolded for turning into a snobby Dearborn resident instead of a lowly Heights resident who said "Croy-sent" Getting back to parking... if you do use the ParkWhiz app for events, I always suggest typing in the name of the event. That gets linked to it. It's important for TIger games as if there's a rainout you will get your money back. But if you can't find a spot in one of the lots on the app, try changing the event to something else. Sometimes they reserve places for things going on at The Fillmore or Fox or LCA. During the playoffs in 2024 when they announced one of the games as a day game, I snagged a spot for $10 beacuse the owners of that lot near Elephant and Co. didn't update their pricing in time. It was $50 everywhere else.

Years ago, when local TV ratings wars were the thing, one of the Detroit stations brought in a new crew, mostly hired from out East. The station with the people with most local depth started running commercials against them that highlighted an anchorperson representing one of the foreign imports mispronouncing Gra.tee.ot. It was a very well done takedown. In the Detroit area there are two road names that betray the foreigner - Gratiot, and for West siders 'Lahser' which the unfamiliar (including too many Detroiters actually) invariably dyslexicly read and pronounce as 'Lasher'

Detroit had four shot clock violations in the 4th quarter.

If you have a dead beavers ass on your face you can.

Refs should have reviewed that. Its the playoffs for crying out loud.

That's a mother ****ing foul. Oh all the soft **** called they don't call that???

Wow. That’s why you save your challenge.

Why waste your last timeout?

From the movie Office Space - so fitting.

How can you be paid as an NBA coach and make money putting out rotations this bad?

if you challenge when you don't have one it should be a penalt ball or strike.

Here we go again. Cavs have only been called for two fouls. Two! In an entire NBA playoff half. Bull****.

GET DUREN OFF THE FLOOR! remember when we all said reed should play? nope. instead we have to watch duren do nothing, grab no offensive boards, and stand there on defense.

Keith with 104 EV on the DP ball - that's enough to get out of a ball park, unfortunately the launch angle was 1 deg.

They should eject Tyson.

Beef Curry baby!

Get ready. Numbers out showing wholesale prices up 6%. This is what happens when a criminal operation is put in the White House led by a lifelong conman that’s built an empire on fraud. “Starting on Day One, we will end inflation and make America affordable again, to bring the prices down on all goods.” - 8/9/24 at Bozeman, MT rally “Starting the day I take the oath of office, I will rapidly drive prices down and we will make America affordable again.” “We’re going to get your energy prices down. We’re going to get your energy prices down by 50%.” - both at an 8/17/24 Wilkes-Barre, PA rally. “Energy is going to bring us back up. That means we’re going down and getting gasoline below $2 a gallon, bring down the price of everything from electricity rates to groceries, airfares, and housing costs.” - 9/5/24 Economic Club of New York Of course, I could go the same with the Epstein files, but instead this Administration chooses a criminal cover-up in a situation where Trump’s name is mentioned at this point 38,000 times. This is what happens when you elect a person who has been a con man his entire life.

I can't add any more reactions today, but 😂
