OKC plays in Toronto tonight.  SGA is not playing, and I would guess he does not play against us either.  Chet and Caruso are both listed as questionable tonight.

Is SGA injured? Maybe resting last night so he can play against the Pistons?

Edit; oh...I see. Injuries;

Injury report is out.

SGA out

Caruso doubtful

Hartenstein out

Jalen Williams out

Ajay Mitchell out

Chet doubtful

So 4 starters out and their top 2 subs out or doubtful.

The good news is that the Knicks and Cavs are now tied. Hopefully the Cavs can pass them up and duke it out with Boston in round 2 while we get our revenge on the Knicks who I think are a much better matchup for us than either of those other teams.

[Deleterious]

A Pistons-Celtics conference final would be fun.  Time for the young fans to learn why us old fans hate Boston so much.

His 3pt shooting has really fallen off compared to his time in MIL, but I'm not sure what kind of looks he's getting these days compared to back then. Probably worth a roster spot for a 6' 7" guy with championship experience that will at least have gravity whether he hits shots or not.

We're probably talking about Bobi Klintman's spot here, so it's not like it's a high bar.

[Deleterious]

Might be worth it just to have someone around who has won a ring on the roster.  Plus, it isn't my money.

To be eligible for the playoffs, a player has to be bought out before March 1st.  He can sign up until the last game of the season, but he has to be let go by his current team before March 1st.

Caruso and Chet are now also out.  So 6 of their top 7 or 8 are now out.

This is such a bad omen.  Please don’t let Isaiah Joe make 10 triples and put up 40.

Tanking.

I mean, they are the team that is most like Detroit.  Deep, play hard in every game, good team system in place.  So it isn't out of the question OKC wins.  

[Deleterious]

White uniforms are my favorite.

[Deleterious]

Well

[Deleterious]

Pistons fans erupt with joy when LeVert picks up his third.

[Deleterious]

This game is so bad even Huerter is getting run.

[Deleterious]

Buddy Boeheim in for OKC.  Good job flexing this game, ESPN.

[buddha]

okc should be fined for putting out this lineup for a nationally televised game.

[buddha]

this is embarassing for the league (and the pistons if they lose to this g-league team)

[buddha]

duren still cant move his feet.

[buddha]

pistons win because cade is the best player on the floor.
