    I would like to formally apologize to all the Thunder fans I said mean things about in my head last night. I understand now how hilarious it is to watch a team close in the standings lose to one of the worst teams in the league.

  2. AmumuIsMyFriend

    No fucking way the Lions are winning after this

  3. Crazy game, I can’t even be mad. Every shot that could rim out did for us and dropped for Detroit. Every loose ball bounced their way. Universe voodoo shit.

    On top of that the Pistons were awesome and we were cheeks.

    GG, go lions

  4. InternCautious

    As expected on a B2B after getting blown out by the Wizards and Cade as a late scratch.

    Duren with that 20/20 vision too

  5. 2coolcaterpillar

    Pistons were just surgical and got buckets in the paint at will, sheesh..

    Hope this energy transfers over to the Lions!

  6. Cough_Syrup55

    Will the sports gods allow the Pistons and Lions to win in the same day?

  7. ShukiNathan

    Clippers Timberwolves and the nuggets are the real winners here

  8. Classics22

    Man OKC is just going to get bodied on the boards in the playoffs

  9. FeminismIsTheBestIsm

    AFC championship game saved this team from generational slander lol

  10. superlazerX

    idk whats happening in Detroit but im happy

  11. DeStupak

    1 seed at the west losing to sub 10 win team? Color me shocked.

  12. chickenchuck

    Two top teams in the west getting beat by the two worst teams in the league. Adam Silver you sly dog.

  13. JurgenFlippers

    The fact Monty plays Hayes any minutes over Sasser should be a war crime.

  14. cough_landing_on_you

    Detroit saw the Spurs last night, did one better.

  15. How do yall laugh at the timberwolves and then get shit on by the pistons without Cade😭

  16. Padulsky21

    So he just….didn’t bother putting Shai or Chet back in? I get there’s a b2b but god damn man wtf

  17. Neuroxex

    This was not a win for the Pistons, this was legitimately a fringe blowout against arguably the best team in the West.

  18. LoWE11053211

    Just sit Cade for the rest of the season.

    Pistons gonna come out of the east!

  19. CountOff

    I think this game makes it really clear that Monte doesn’t know how to utilize Cade and Ivey together

    They’re separately greater than the sum of their parts. That’s usually a fit or a coaching issue. I think it’s coaching because there’s an offense you can run / design in a way that should benefit both of them.

    Ivey should run the point and distribute the ball; Cade should have some number of possessions he brings the ball up the court and runs the offense in certain sets. Ivey’s drive threat in transition and in the half court opens up wide open looks for Cade; Cade hitting open looks makes the defense have to cheat to guard him more; Ivey then drives the other half of the stretched defense

    But when they play together, Ivey sits in a corner for multiple possessions while Cade and Bogey run actions until the team decides, “This possession will be an Ivey possession!” and throw him the ball early in the shot clock to go to work. That’s coaching to me.

  20. Aeronova20

    So by the transitive property, the Pistons are now, the number one team in the west.

    Sorry, I don’t make the rules.

  21. D_Simmons

    This is funny as shit. Top 3 team in the NBA lost the Pistons

  22. DynamixRo

    Not going to enjoy this upset too much since the Clippers still have to play Detroit twice.

  23. Zam_Sakura

    Unfortunate loss by the thunder. I expect both OKC and Minnesota to be fired up tomorrow after losing to bad teams.

  24. Presti not adding more bodies to the frontcourt is starting to rear it’s head as the season takes its toll on Chet.

    And OKC has nothing if Chet doesn’t work because they start playing a bunch of undersized guys at the 5 like Kenrich and J Dub.

  25. Caboclo-Is2yearsAway

    pistons in 8 games w/o cade have as many wins as in 37 games w cade

  26. The_Shitpost_Centre

    Thunders 🤝 Timberwolves
    Losing to the worst team in a conference
