The Magic are the best in the east – Brian Scalabrine
The Detroit Pistons & Cade Cunningham in a word #Awesome #Squad
The Clippers They Must Fire Lawrence Frank He's Got To Go💯 #Fact
Which streak ends first – LeBron's 10 points a game, or SGA's 20?
If you can't vote, you can't drink. voting in the US is 18 everywhere. Drinking 21.
Hunter….how dare you not mention that Ivey would be the guy when he gets his feet underneath him. How can we forget about Ivey?
No. The Cavs are. The Pistons are good though
Appreciate the Pistons talk.
Last night was probably the least amount of fun I had watching the Pistons this season… until the 4th quarter 😈
🎶🎶orlandoooooo 🎶🎶
Best team in the East?? Lmao choked in the NBA cup which had pressure like playoff games. They ain’t built for the playoffs it’s all Cade and no one else
2 way contracts are going to be instrumental to any team building. Okc and other have know for years and now Dallas has witnessed it. Team need to find gems in the rough to be deep
The answer is YES. Deeeeeeeeetroit Basketballllllllllllllllllllll
Talking about the Pistons defense without mentioning Ausar is kinda wild.
She’s really following teams closely. Impressive from a national analyst. Must be watching replays.
Mfs act like they forgot about Ivey, Tobias and Daniss! AT on defense
I think they missed the potential of Ivey before he was injured Ivey had a clutch shot like in the king last season.Ivey should be the second option to cade before he was injured.
Have either of these two seen Howard Stern's movie?🎬🥏
Thompson getting 16 a game would take us to next level. Guy is a freak. He should be able to get u 4 a quarter.
Orlando once they get fully healthy are the team to beat in the East
Two Florida brain deads trying to say Magic in the comments. So many replies… no likes 🤔🫠
