Huerter has been really good in limited minutes and now with more opportunity recently. I like him quite a bit more than Levert even though Levert provides a bigger need with shot creation. Hopefully this trend continues of more Huerter and less Levert.

Agreed. And Cade as an MVP? To me, an MVP is a player a team can't win without. And the Pistons have a 9-3 record without Cade. He's a very important part of our team but we're not dependent on any one (or 2, 3 or 4) player(s) to win. Credit has to go to our coaching staff...

All 20 playoff spots have now been clinched.  Seeding is still up for grabs.  That seems pretty early for that to happen.

No Ant, McDaniels, or Dosunmu tonight for Minnesota.

Bet ABC loves Cade and Ant missing this game.

Next question:

Who would be the better starter: Huerter, or Duncan?

They each have some positives over the other one...

The guy not shooting 29% from three on the season.  

[1984Echoes]

Yeah... I know that's bad...

But he seems a bit more athletic, maybe age (27 versus 31) is an advantage there... a bit more defensively, a bit more of a playmaker/ passer than Duncan. And he shot 39-ish percent his first 5, even 6 seasons in the NBA.

And then went very inconsistent after that point.

So is he really a 29% shooter...?

Or is he really a 39% shooter that struggled for crappy teams the past 1 1/2 years?

I don't know the answer to that.

I'm asking what other's impressions are? Is he more athletic? A better defender? A better ball-handler/ passer/ playmaker?

But lastly, to your point (and probably most importantly as per your comment): Can he fix his 3-point shot?

Teeny tiny sample size: 5 for his last 10.

From 2018 through 2023-24 season:

2,335 3 PT shots, 891 made = 38.2%.

I think that's still in there...

Somewhere.

Robinson will never be replaced unless his replacement can equal his shooting.

If you replace him with a ****ty shooter like Huerter it might as well be Ron and get some defensive value.  

[Deleterious]

Is that game at LCA?

 

[Sports_Freak]

The Pistons seem to own third quarters. Is it the adjustments the coaches make at halftime?

[Sports_Freak]

Impressive road win against a quality opponent.
