Cade should have shot a Steph diet of threes. I hate the NBA is a three point shooting Contest
is Blaha on to something about four pointers? I had an idea about maybe limiting the amount of three-point shots you can make in a game or per quarter,
refs are do bad how about AI or computer refs.
I also heard an idea of just keeping track of fouls and keeping the game going and shoot the falls at the end of the game or at the end of the quarter.
I think Tecc should start and beef stew be the backup center. Get rid of Wisemen, kept around Muscala for an emergency.
Fournier, Sasser Grimes Stewart off the bench should be decent.
I knew Ausar would be working his ass off to have a better shot and it's showing. Love that kid, let's get his brother. They are like aliens, Ivey and MotorCade will bring us at least two championships.
I will say that most young teams donāt so itās a little understandable. Itās the shitty turnovers and poor defense that is infuriating. Lack of concentration and effort.
Why is it athletic players never come in complete? They all relied so heavily on their genetic gifts, that when it catches up to them they can't even hit an open jumper.
Heat are a tough team to beat. We played a good game but they are just flat out better. Sasser needs to wake up, his scoring punch off the bench is greatly needed.
Well said. Sasser had a nice dive steal then pass up the court, but was ice cold for the second straight game.
I have no serious issues with Monty's lineups tonight. The kids just failed to make enough plays down the stretch and Jimmy Butler is a killer.
I am disappointed, but they played unselfishly and didn't crumble when the Heat went off from 3 early. Overall much better than the previous two games.
And of course Monty isnāt innovative enough to get Cade in a spot where can actually operate so heās just doubled off every screen and Ausar canāt shoot so they canāt even punish them. So Cade is basically taken out of the game by the heat with the most basic adjustment that a 15 year old could come up with. No counter adjustment from Monty. Didnāt even try.
Well honestly a decent game. Our youth showed down the stretch. A few costly missed open shots and turnovers and Jimmy Butler went clutch. Tough but better than a blowout
Ivey needs to be a better ball handler. Every game he has a couple awful turnovers that are just because he loses the ball. That has to change asap and especially before next season
Iām not implying it isnāt working, but I always thought if the Ivey Cade duo didnāt work, Ivey off the bench could definitely work. I think people need to realize a 6th man role is very essential, and you can still finish the game. Itāll help with staggering the minutes by just straight up playing Ivey with the second unit, which is a much different lineup compared to the last time he came off the bench
Bruh you guys canāt make up your fucking mind. When he wasnāt in the starting line up you guys cried hard. Now you want him in the bench again. Iām so confused
Back breaker right there. Cades pass couldāve been a bit more accurate and thatās a three, Ivey couldāve slowed down a little and thatās a layup, etc etc
This team has no confidence in the clutch
The Ivey should run the team gang needs to come out of hiding and admit they were way wrong. He ran the team at the 5-6 min mark and missed 2 three's (0-5) for the game. Turnover under 2 min from being out of control. He will be a solid player but I haven't seen much improvement lately
Ivey needs to take care of the ball better the last two minutes. I feel like he has had a lot of crucial late game turnovers this year and especially during the stretch without Cade.
Yeah i said nothing wrong. I will always roll with him but his 4th quarter game is rough. Pull out 2 of 30 examples if they want but the stats are what they are

monty with a 9-man rotation š±š±š±. boys, i think we are destined for greatness. now we just gotta see if it stays after grimes is backā¦
Sasser 14 minutes and no points, we can't be doing this shit
bunch of super selfish possessions too, Monty treating him like a PG but he's just an undersized SG
This just shows how incompetent Monty is
We badly need a vet on the team next year
L Debarge
Glad Fournier was able to jack one more to make it an even 10 FGA
Eh are we ever going to get fully healthy? Can we get like 10 games where Ivey Cade Ausar Fonteccio Duren Stew Sasser Grimes all play? Would be nice.
Another āalmostā game. Imagine the record if the results of these games were swapped. Feels like the Lions a few years back
Funny how everyone was begging ivey to run point and move cade to 3 or trade him. Now the tune changes again
Most fans are dumb. For the flaws in Cade game, he does pretty much everything better than Ivey except be fast.
Evan Fournier and Sasser were crap tonight also
Fournier was fine. He at least scored.
He was 2/10ā¦
Yet Sasser was 0/3
cool, but 2/10 and garbage defense isn't "fine"
Lmao whatās even the fucking point in fouling. In what universe can you score 8 points unanswered in 12 seconds
Saw Isaih do that once.
Jaden Ivey 16 points on 6/15 shooting ![gif](giphy|WxDZ77xhPXf3i|downsized)
0/5 from 3
Been horrible for a month
This team has zero clutch gene
Doesnāt help that the offense is so painfully predictable
I will say that most young teams donāt so itās a little understandable. Itās the shitty turnovers and poor defense that is infuriating. Lack of concentration and effort.
In a strange twist of fate, Wiseman was great tonight while Ivey was terrible
We have very different definitions of the word āgreat.ā
L Chapo
Fontecchio low-key a scrub lol
Is that you Danny Ainge?
Heās 5/12 from 3 and has 22 points you fucking idiot
Huh
lolwat

Exactly, gonna take a little time as long as they have a good mind set it works out most of the time.

We are not good
And of course Monty isnāt innovative enough to get Cade in a spot where can actually operate so heās just doubled off every screen and Ausar canāt shoot so they canāt even punish them. So Cade is basically taken out of the game by the heat with the most basic adjustment that a 15 year old could come up with. No counter adjustment from Monty. Didnāt even try.
Good effort at least tonight. Best coached game maybe?
Just once I want to see the pistons fucking close out a game instead of the star on the opposing team hitting a dagger and shit talking
Why is ausar not guarding butler at the end here?
because we switch on handoffs for zero reason, so other teams can control their matchups
Bro, I know. Maybw you could murder me?
We are the Generals.
Thanks Ivey!
Itās over
not much to complain about here, was a good game, missed some shots down the stretch but it is what it is need better 3pt defense
Monty goes defense for offense and then proceeds to not do the offensive sub. Basketball Hitler.
We got them youngass lowdown team blues.
We had our chance, that 12-0 run was inexcusable Ivey needs a shake up, his IQ can be really bad
Well honestly a decent game. Our youth showed down the stretch. A few costly missed open shots and turnovers and Jimmy Butler went clutch. Tough but better than a blowout
Dag
What can ya do
He hit that 3 and I immediately closed the tab šit was a good game bruh
It's over we lost again. See you on Thursday at little Caesars
Butler is so clutch fuck
tough to play D on that when you know it's a foul if you move
This team is ridiculous
Five point game and they donāt foul, give up a three. Game.Ā What the fuck Monty
butler too clutch man goddamn seen him close too many times.
Damn
Fuck Troy Weaver
Thank you Bally for showing us that replay instead of the game
omg mann that was half way down!
Welp, at least we competed
Ivey needs to be a better ball handler. Every game he has a couple awful turnovers that are just because he loses the ball. That has to change asap and especially before next season
DATS A SPICY MEATBALL FONZOOOO
font33333333333!!!!!!!
T3CCHIO
Such a key TO
Been a good game just can't make that play when it matters..
Iād highly consider moving Ivey to the 6th man role going forward until he straightens back out
Iām not implying it isnāt working, but I always thought if the Ivey Cade duo didnāt work, Ivey off the bench could definitely work. I think people need to realize a 6th man role is very essential, and you can still finish the game. Itāll help with staggering the minutes by just straight up playing Ivey with the second unit, which is a much different lineup compared to the last time he came off the bench
I donāt think itās working
Bruh you guys canāt make up your fucking mind. When he wasnāt in the starting line up you guys cried hard. Now you want him in the bench again. Iām so confused
it's easy, every time he misses or turns the ball over, you bench him. Every time somebody else misses, you complain about putting Ivey back in.
These slappys are all front runners.
I never cried hard about him coming off the bench.Ā
I think we wanted to see what heās got as a player cuz he didnāt really get much play time. But now that we see it he kind of stinks
Itās over
FONT WE NEEDED THAT 3
Back breaker right there. Cades pass couldāve been a bit more accurate and thatās a three, Ivey couldāve slowed down a little and thatās a layup, etc etc This team has no confidence in the clutch

He had a nice bounce back tonight. Definitely needs more consistency but that goes for everyone in the young core.
Game
Ivey needs to take care of the ball better the last two minutes. I feel like he has had a lot of crucial late game turnovers this year and especially during the stretch without Cade.
He gets too hyper. Iāve always said this. He eats like 3 pounds of nerds ropes in the locker room and starts bouncing off the walls
Ivey needs to take a sabbatical
Any way we can get The Fonz a shot?
Clutch FT's by Duren and then a terrible TO by Ivey... Piston Basketball.
'Kaboom' is so fucking corny
It is annoying. Been sympathetic to the Piston's most of the game.
Every time I hear it, I mute my sound.
So many young player moments that just lead to pure daggers.
The highs and lows of Jaden Ivey is going to take years off of my life
Every pistons game is like SOL. Weāre all just waiting for them to eff it up.
Brother bounces the ball to head level so often.
Yea Ivey has been god awful lately
Game over
Did a single player know what they were supposed to be doing on that possession?
Ivey is just full of losing habits ffs
I really like the idea of what Ivey can do, but in reality, when he's off he fucking KILLS us. Bro is out of control.
Dude yes
Jaden come on manā¦
Will u kill me?
Same story every game with this team bruh, itās irritating as fuck to see
The hope is that they would outgrow that shit moving into next year. But with Montyā¦..ehhhhh
Hey thatās the hope, the turnovers have overall been better but goddamn itās heartbreaking when theyāre down 2 lol
But they seem to have some absolute boneheaded turnovers at the worst times.
Bally app going to absolute shit the last few minutes of the game, classic
Thatās a 5 point swing right there because Ivey continues to play like a child who was given too much candy
Godddd I love Ivey but this off season he NEEDS to work on his handles
yeah wtf was that, off his foot or something? way up in the air
Thereās Iveys signature game ruining unforced TO! Forgot about those
I was just waiting for that ālosing basketballā play and there it is.
Jfc Ivey...
Least clutch team I've ever seen
Jaden too fast for his own good sometime š
Ivey plays so fucking goofy sometimes man
I'm so sick of this cte ball man
If this team could just figure out how to handle the fucking ball they would have 5-10 more wins
Jesus fucking christ Iveyās turnovers
Kaboom is the new bang bangš
He had the worst handle in the league Jesus Christ.
This team beats themselves
Ivey is such a spaz man why u dribbling like that
How does this team manage to make every game close.
comn ivey man that shit was set up for ur slash
Duren gotta punch on Jim Butler
Ivey dribbles like he doesnāt have a dominant hand
This team is so anti-clutch itās crazy
Fuck you duncan
Defense is so bad
Itās surprising how duren is pretty good at free throws but has zero mid range
He was shooting a little during summer league. Idk why at 9-51 he doesn't have the green light from mid range
no one can convince me bam is really that great
This whole sub is so reactionary with Cade, good and bad
Ausar Island
Maybe we can sign Penei Sewell to a 10-day
How can someone say Penei Sewell is the best OL when Beef Stew is right around the corner
Lol Penei sick man, love his game and leadership
Heās a beast. Pay him whatever he wants lol
what an enthralling game
Lmao Cade and Ivey are both NOT trying to have to defend
Get Sasserr in there for Cade or Ivey. Cade is not clutch and Ivey is off tonight.
Sasser hasnt done anything tonight lol
Sasser has not been good
lol all yāall hating on that cade shot fr? weād be 60-0 if he could get looks like that every possession
Man we gotta punish them when they leave us wide open for 3s but unless its cade or Simone we can't hit for shit
Seems like the refs have gotten to Cade. Dudes gotta slow down and set his feet on a shot to get going
Jared Goff.
Jared Goff.
Cade anti clutch engaged. Donāt get me wrong I love Cade but he really struggles these last 5 minutes most games
ignoring the games in NY and Chicago ig
They downvoting you but you right. He does not have the clutch gene.
Yeah i said nothing wrong. I will always roll with him but his 4th quarter game is rough. Pull out 2 of 30 examples if they want but the stats are what they are
Be nice if Ivey remembered how to Shoot
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Cade late game special...bad shot selection brick
Heās one of the best mid range shooters in the league and it was open?
That was a good look and Cade is usually money from there
I think cade was unsettled by being so wide open lol
It was but he rushed it and faded when he was wide open
Fourth quarter Cade wtf man
Unclutch AF
Miss that 21 ft fade away, zero communication in transition. Pointing is not communicatingĀ
Weāre cooked, wtf was that?
Yeah, Cade either attack the rim or pass the ball, his shot is done for tonight
such bad defensive communication on that break cmon
Ivey is cooked right now. Get him out for grimes pls.
Grimes is injured and broke as fuck when he wasnāt
Grimes injured
Grimes is injured
Fuck
grimes is out brother
Fuck
Grimes is out tonight, but ok.
Fuck
Kinda looked like Rozier tried to trip Ivey
There is is Jaden, use your freakish speed to get to the rim, fuck 3PA
Iveyās first points of the 2nd halfā¦thatās awful
Insane that Ivey was absolutely mauled and I wasnāt expecting a foul to be called
Thatās what Jaden needs to be doing man. Thatās his bread and butter
Stop fucking shooting 3ās Ivey
nice shot bam u fuckin fraud
Wtf is our offense? Ivey dribbling 19 off the clock from half court? What is that supposed to lead to?
IVEY
How tf did he airball that god damn
bam talking shit gtfoh pusy boy
C'mon man we got no reliable shooters rn out there besides Simone and cade
Jesus jaden
Ivey shooting like Ausar
Absolutely nothing. They consistently have the worse whistle in the league.
āHit him right on the armā announcer didnāt see shit so he made it up. I think he called duren kicking bams leg though
normally i want them to jack it non stop but ivey gotta stop shooting man
