Orlando in 6. NIGHTMARE matchup for Detroit. This series will Prove how bad the pistons need another bucket getter. Man, Jenkins is good, good story, solid player. Not that guy though. They NEED a legit bucket getting wing.
If the Pistons don’t win game 2 this series will be very short. Orlando in 5 or possibly 4. Imagine getting put out by a Magic team that barely made the playoffs and even they look better
To be fair Orlando was the absolute worst possible first round matchup for the Pistons, it won't excuse them if they lose the series but if it takes 6 or 7 I won't be surprised.
This is the curse of not getting the pick right in the draft, Hayes was a wasted draft choice and stunted the time to get the bench right in our championship win
If Duren is gonna play like trash give Paul Reed some run
My concern level is a 11/10. I thought this team would get to the ECF but between Bickerstaffs puzzling rotation and Duren being a ghost and Ausar being a liability on offense I genuinely worry about this series.
Those 60 wins wasn’t all garbage teams
The thing the East did was. We not gone show our hand defensively for Cade. Cuz they have no second option.
So when playoffs hit they won’t know what to do
It was one game I’m not gonna trip off of one game. The Pistons couldn’t hit air in the fourth quarter. Orlando took advantage of that they’ve got to shoot the ball better down the stretch in the fourth quarter. That’s their problem is that they can’t shoot in the fourth.
Pistons get swept.
Game one is on Bickerstaff they look as unprepared a number one seed in the playoff as I’ve ever seen
I’m not going to panic until after game two because I predicted the Pistons would lose the first game because they always come back from a lot of time off rusty so they will figure it out and come back stronger than ever and win in 6 💪🏽
When Mike Valenti was gone on vacation the show was awful as usual. Welcome back Mike.
Rico sucks
Duncan and the other dude gotta hit their threes and the bench needs to be consistent
Why do they keep calling him Asoore Thompson?
I truly believe that the Pistons got caught unprepared for the level of aggression that the Magic brought. But, you have to remember the Magic have been on a winning run of playoff 1 game eliminations for a week. Let's see if they can sustain this energy for a series of playing the same players night after night.
Valenti is spot on despite the fans not wanting to hear it
“Kenny what time are the Wings playing tonight?” *Dialtone*😂😂😂😂
Rico is honestly the worst
🧹
Nope.
So the knicks lost one .. what y'all gonna say about that ?
Orlando is a team that is built for the playoffs. They was cruising through the regular season and waiting for the playoffs to come. 🎉🎉🎉
Theyre last years cavs. Theyve always been an obvious 2nd round exit if they even get there. A JB coached team with no shooting, 1 superstar with no 2nd option, and try hard regular season defense? Yeah weve all seen that play out before
Pistons in 6
Yes, yes we were.
If they make it out of this round, they’re going to be gentlemen’s swept by Cleveland.
