casimir Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 The Saturday matinee at the Clippers followed by a Tuesday night game at the Lakers. That's a long time to be on the road in one city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleterious Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Time off is exactly what a team needs that just overhauled half of its roster. I'm sure they were able to practice at least once, probably twice which isn't always easy to do during the season. Also being on the road means nobody is leaving practice to run home to the family. So they probably are scheduling team outings/dinners to let guys get to know each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just unusual see that occur for this long. 5 hours ago, Deleterious said: Time off is exactly what a team needs that just overhauled half of its roster.

It is probably fortunate scheduling with all of the recent turnover. That means the NBA will drop the Pistons like a rock in the lottery, just so we don’t get the impression of preferential treatment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betrayer Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Except I feel like players are better when they first arrive, before they learn this system. After a few weeks they stop cutting to the basket, moving off ball, and screening properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYLion Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I'm actually looking forward to Pistons games now, it's an odd feeling. I was also one of the few, I think, that liked what Weaver did at the deadline. Got rid of the old one dimensional chuckers and brought in guys that are younger, energetic and should play more of a team game. Interested to see how the pieces fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they looked better in the two games with a short bench and no time for the new guys that did play to get acclimated to the Pistons? 19 hours ago, Betrayer said: Except I feel like players are better when they first arrive, before they learn this system.
