Deleterious Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Look, pay some high school kid $50 a game to sit behind the bench with an IPad and FanDuel so you stop challenging dumb stuff Quote
Betrayer Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Wow. Didn’t expect the refs to look back a few seconds earlier. I’ll take it. Quote
Betrayer Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Tobias and Cade cooked on defense on consecutive plays. Quote
Betrayer Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Look, we probably weren’t winning this with Cade playing this bad, but also terrible game management by JB to have Robinson, Harris, and Duren closing this game. 1 Quote
Deleterious Posted January 24 Posted January 24 It's on the players to perform, and the starters did not do that tonight. But it's also on JB to push the right buttons and get guys on the floor that give you the best chance to win. He didn't do that tonight either. So fault goes both ways tonight. Quote
Sports_Freak Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Houston is a very aggressive team. So are the Pistons but the Rockets outmuscled us. All of those missed 3 pointers ending up costing us. I wonder if Cade is hurting? His game wasn't very impressive tonight. Quote
Betrayer Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Welcome to a playoff atmosphere. Cade will be trapped. You’ll see zone. You can’t win with just 2s. You can’t start three poor defenders in Duncan, Harris, and Duren. You need to use your challenges better. You need better lineup management. Being first in the East is an awesome accomplishment but if you want to get past the second round you need to make a move before the deadline. 1 Quote

One of JJJ, or MPJ, or TM3... And one more skilled ball-handler and distributor... Please. I think we need that for this year's playoffs... And also the future. Quote

That pathetic shooting, along with 16 turnovers, cost us any chance to win. 1 Quote

IMO, that would be a huge mistake. 1 Quote
papalawrence Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Tough game. Hope Cade returns to form soon. This game highlighted their need for more shooting. Houston was clearly the better team tonight Quote

Deleterious Posted January 24 Posted January 24 After working his TS% up to a somewhat respectable 59%, Cade has had a rough month of January. TS% of 50% which is awful and his overall TS% has dropped back to 56%. 58% is the current league average for TS%. Quote
