    I only got to watch the last 2 minutes. Just thankful we blew out the Pistons (or wtv’s left of them).

    Don’t think there’s anything to take away from this game right? Cool to see extended bench minutes.

  2. nanobot001

    That was one of the quietest GDT’s in a long time.

  3. Spectro-X

    I did not have a 4-0 sweep of Casey’s Pistons on this season’s bingo card.

  4. LifeofWalk

    Tankers devasted by their prototype team – The Draft King Pistons! Please Wemby come to the Pistons so we can have a best case scenario of 3 generational players on 1 team!

  5. Panda_Paradox

    I wish I had Will Barton’s confidence, just chucking shots and living life

  6. MDS_1996

    Pascal had to play 38 minutes start to finish in a blowout against one of the most obvious tank jobs this season? 38 minutes against essentially a G-Leauge team

  7. Opposite_Limit_9721

    Ig no more minutes for Thaddy Daddy?

  8. LifeofWalk

    When Malachi is +4 in 17 minutes against a dream team of lottery picks…

  9. It was Flynn’s time to shine.. 5pts in 17 minutes 1/8 from the field, 0 assists in a blowout game. Not making himself look good.

  10. woo_back

    probably the most boring game of the season. other than seeing siakam going off in the first half, not much to be excited about.

  11. free_kark

    Name a better backup guard combo than Barton/Flynn 😮‍💨

  12. Phoeniyx

    To be honest, after the Pacers loss last day, I didn’t care about this game. Didn’t watch it and just have a sour taste of the season.

  13. beefJeRKy-LB

    Nice to have a stress free win tbh. A needed palate cleanser after that awful Pacers game.

  14. El-Misanthrope

    why did poeltl take only 2 shots?
    why did siakam play so many minutes in a blowout?

  15. PlumCantaloupe

    Detroit is in super-tank mode, and their players play like it, but the Raps taking care of business easily is not something we have been accustomed to for a while. GG.

  16. Go watch the Mav’s highlights tonight. I’m frustrated with the raps but if I was a mav’s fan I’d be irate almost all the time. Ya Masai has made mistakes but holy hell the what a dumpster fire in Dallas.

    For context:

    Svi started and played 36 min and was a +10 for the Hornets.

    Luka and Kyrie both played.

  17. Why did siakam play 38 mins In a 20 pt blowout?

  18. AngryHelicopter

    There is not enough talk about how the NBA is becoming unwatchable because of the free throw situation. There were 59 goddamn free throws this game, and while not all games have that kind of obscene number, it’s also not a rarity. It’s becoming unbearable. It is killing the game. I don’t understand why more people aren’t raising alarms about this, why this is not the topic of discussion on every post-game and panel show.

  19. Le_Atheist_Fedora

    When the Raptors are shit (this season, Tampa season) they always beat the Pistons. When the Raptors are good, they always lose to them.

  20. JustIncredible240

    I know it’s only Detroit, but how scary did Koloko and Boucher look together..

    There was a stretch where they were blocking everything! Lol

  21. bigOGloc

    Wow! We win a game we’re expected to win!

  22. Professional-Doubt14

    Dowtin has come into multiple games and made an immediate impact with his defense. He’s very quick with the ball in his hands and makes good decisions. He deserves more run. Malachi is unfortunately the opposite. Pascal played great against a bad team again, Detroit had no one who could guard him, they need to add a wing badly in the draft.

  23. HeroicTechnology

    the boogey man is off our backs! gone!

  24. Comrade_agent

    A small price to pay for the play-in 4-0

  25. dub-fresh

    We got 4 Jr’s on the squad

    Masai and Bobby playing 4d chess
