10/28/24 Pistons @Heat


Recommended Posts

We just can't get enough stops.  It seems like Cade and Jaden have both made leaps that you want on offense but it doesn't matter.  We are not going to win very many games against good teams.

for all of you who loved the tobias harris signing, he's been awful.  

still early of course, but the results have not been good.

cade in the 4th quarter has been bad.  cade in the first three quarters has been very good and much improved.  he looks stronger and he's getting to the rim.  you have to figure that at some point in his career the refs start to give him some respect?  

i imagine if he were on a team that wins games he would get that respect.  but alas...

They might not even reach 16 wins this season. Cade, and the rest of the team, continue to be duds in the 4th when the opposition starts to take the game seriously. I feel like I'm saying this on repeat but you're never going to win many games in the NBA when your best player is worse than the opposition best player and Cade is one of the worst #1 options in the league.

There's many other issues with the team but lacking a franchise player is one of the biggest issues. The NBA is all about starpower and the Pistons have none of it.

I think its a mix.  Cade and Ivey need to be better in the 4th quarter.  But to be fair, they are out there playing 2 vs. 5 most nights on offense.  

A lot of people thought SGA wasn't very good either.  OKC upgraded the talent around him and now he is an MVP candidate.

Pistons individual 4th quarter stats last night:

Holland: 2m43s 0-1 with 2 fouls no other stats

Fontecchio: 7m28s 0-3 1pt 1 reb

Stewart: 4m6s 0 shots 2 rebs

Ivey: 5m47s 3-4 from the field 1 reb 1 TO 9 points 

Cade: 12m 2-8 4 reb 1 ast 3 TO 4 points

Harris: 9m16s 0-3 1 reb 1 ast 0 points

THJ: 10m43s 0-2 3 points no other stats

Duren: 7m54s 1-1 4 rebs 1 block 2 points

6 total points from guys not named Cade or Ivey.

20 minutes combined from Harris and THJ.  They provided a total of 3 points 1 reb and 1 assist.  Nothing else.  Aren't these the situations the vets were brought in for?
