BRO! Looking at the title and it was one play that happen last night that made me feel like WE ALREADY HAVE A BIG THREE!! Cade came down threw up an oop for Ausur and he catch pass to Duren!! I WAS LIKE WTF!!!!
Man we (PISTONS) must see tv!!
Ausar being at the point of attack on defense has been the big difference maker
Sasser is a better scorer than Schroder but Schroder a better defender. Wish sasser could get some minutes but not looking like it
Do we even need to make a big trade for another star level player anymore? I think it’s be best to just let Ivey, Ausar, Duren, and Cade develop together.
I remember when people/pod caster, analysts wanted to Trade JD and Ivy and Thompson wasnt that dude just a good defensive player. Now everyone loves them and they are those guys
Pistons core pieces are Cade, Ivey, AT and Duren. This Starting lineup will at least be together for 3 to 4 more years. With Adding a piece here and there, the future looks super bright.
Cade 3point % went down because of our winning, teams triple teams being physical and not having another ball handler. Now that we learned Ausar ready and we have Schoroder he is playing on fresher legs. What is his % since the trade deadline?
Replace Simone with Bobi
We along way from the Dark Riper videos , right Ku remember
That all star badge Cade unlocked sure has his foul calls up😊
Who starts when Ivey comes back? 🤔
@LockedonPistons who would be the guy worth trading for besides a Booker or Durant Then who are you sending back a future Ist, Ivey (probably) Ron Holland (whom I would love to keep) and probably Tobias Harris who's contract expires after next season? My question is it worth it and are we willing to part with promising young players like Ivey and Ron for one of these aging players?
Detroit Basketball 🏀
I know one person who could’ve imagined this and his name is Ashton 😂
Totally disagree with Schroeder take
3rd team in months. Locker room offense adjustment
Ausar shoulbe be the backup pg right now
Ku I’ve been thinking about this. It’s off topic but I’d like to know your thoughts on if New Orleans would even think about it. In the offseason is there a package we could offer to pair Cade and Trey Murphy. That backcourt would be nasty. In my head I would move Ivey, probably 2 picks, and probably a player. I’m sure New Orleans says no but man would I love to see it
I think Schroeder will be fine. His shot is off a bit, while he learns the offense. He has the quickness and play-making ability to continue improvement.
Cade=MAN!
