RandyMarsh Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Maybe Gores is pulling the owner of Major League and trying to make the team so horrendous that people in Detroit will just stop coming to games all together and not even care one bit what happens to them so then he can move the team to Vegas or something without any backlash or pushback.

Like too often when they do have the numbers in transition they will either make the wrong pass, make it too early/late or not make it at all and attempt a tough shot where there only hope is too be bailed out by a whistle. Same thing in the halfcourt, they could have an easy or atleast easier look but instead choose to pass it in traffic at somebody's feet, kick it out for a 3(which wouldn't be bad if they had guys that can shoot) or hesitate allowing the defense to close in. On defense they switch off and help at the wrong times, seem to never be in right position for the rebounds or leave their feet when it isn't necessary. Yup, they look lost on both sides of the court too often. It seems like they've been doing more defensive switching off on picks/screens lately. I thought they were done with that as a default defense? Although it probably doesn't make much difference anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhm, hello? You forgot about Monte Morris being out. And you call yourself a fan...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see Bogey's trade value being much less now than it was last year. Their asking price was too high last year and the Pistons need to lower it but they should be able to get equal or close to what they could have got last year. It's our young guys that I would be concerned about their value. Edited December 22, 2023 by Hart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betrayer Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Nerleans Noel is out there on twitter making comments about this front office and coaching staff: Quote Good group of players - the front office and coaches was hurting them boys last year.

Deleterious Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Well, that isn't good. Any update on that assistant coach that left for personal reasons? That assistant is the coach who runs our defense. If he is still gone that might explain some of the issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
