Cade Cunningham’s clutch scoring in the fourth quarter and overtime kept the Pistons in contention, yet some fans remain critical. The episode explores Malik Beasley’s impressive shooting, Ron Holland’s development, and the Pistons’ competitive edge compared to last season. With an upcoming schedule that offers a chance to reach .500 by November’s end, can the Pistons capitalize on this opportunity?

I swear to God every game has to be an epic drama effort. Beef Stew has mental issues as weve seen before. I knew holland was missing those free throws the moment i saw his face when he stepped up to the strip 😅 he was petrified
Cade needs to absolutely eliminate the lazy pass turnovers. He also would do well to stop driving into the middle with 4 guys waiting for him. Tobias is still fitting in with this team. He will be fine, I hope. I place most of the blame on Stew.
The Pistons are the anti-Lakers when it comes to getting foul calls! Is good for Cade to challenge Giannis and Brook, BUT Cade challenged them too many times, in a predictable manner. Why not pass it out sometimes, instead of leaping into 4 guys!
Just imagine, the Pistons could be on a 7 game win streak right now after the New York disaster with 4 more winnable games coming up before Orlando.
As I said in the last vid that win against Miami was luck. In every 4th quarter they fold every single time
Keep telling yall Cade not him he can’t lead or make his team mates better .. he can’t elevate his team .. Duren is trash and so is Tobias I said we should have never singed him back he was trash when he played here with Reggie and Drummond ..
We can win every close game na lol 😅 just hope these type of games help them in the future cause by tyme play in season we'll know our plays & won't be rattled ect.
Cades handles are elementary. He always gets ripped
Very little rim protection, the lack of a true 5 add up to 50 points from Gianis. They need a true 5. I hope they make a move.
Ku, that's not a big free throw discrepancy. You make it sound like Giannis shot 10 or 15 more free throws than the Pistons. It was only a 4 free throw difference. Also he was dominating the game so obviously he deserve those calls anyway. I don't see what the anger is about on that one. I still got love for you my man but I think you overreacting on that one.😎🏀
aren't you bald?
I've been impressed with their resiliency so far game to game. Even after tough losses that they've had they've bounced back with good efforts in the next game. Not like last year where they'd have a close loss where we think they were turning a corner and then they'd be non-competitive in the next three or four straight games. So let's see, they've got a couple winnable games coming up. If they fall flat then I think we can go doom and gloom again but if they don't then I think there's reason to be optimistic
34 shots is not ideal, unless you are scorching hot.
It would be cool if you did like a live call in show like they do on those sport radio shows but idk if the lockdown network would be cool with it lol
Pistons really could have won that game vs the bucks
ron holland missing them free throws cost the pistons the game
Facts them turnovers by Detroit keeps killing us in these games
So if you just gotta give Giannis his props because his shot was on, how was it a horrible loss? Also, the fact that we could have won almost every game we’ve played is called progress. Can’t change the goalpost now, it’s clear we are much improved since last year.
Dude, all the time you were screaming that you lost to one player, but you forgot that one player is giannis!!!😅😅😅
The turnover, no show up 4th quarter Cade. Years spent to build around this guy and yet everyone else is at fault.
Gotta beat the Raps on Friday…hope JI is back!!!!!!!
I don't think Cade can be our full time PG. He's just not a good enough decision maker.
Sloooooow down Ku. Love your passion and all your points are very valid and spot on. However, it is called maturity and experience and takes it. This is still a very, very young team at its core. But, the Detroit Pistons are growing and definitely heading in the right direction. They are ahead of schedule. Relax. The key thing now is to trade up and upgrade on their veterans and bring in a "champion". That is what is missing.
