I hate when yall talk and leave out context. Do you think a player who isn't paying the refs in some way is deciding how many times they go to the line?
Salute to Jalen Duren, Roman Catholic 💯 He's definitely worked on his all around game. Two way player that is dominant in the paint. He's basically an athletic old school big man. Imagine if the Sixerrs had a big man like him right now.
Duran does appear to have improved this offseason but I do think you are overhyping him. Yeah sometimes he hits a jumper or hook shot and those shots look nice but he isn't consistently making those plays. Yeah he has made some nice dribble drives to the basket but he doesn't seem to have these moves mastered yet. I think he's on his way but he is far from producing on a consistent level like we have seem from bonified star big men like Anthony Davis, Kevin Garnet and Jokic.
Edit – I absolutely expect him to keep up this production. JB is a great coach. We're going to stay the course until other teams figure out a way to stop us.
When JI gets back, that will add a 3rd option offensively. It's gonna be ridiculous. ECF is absolutely attainable for us this year, and next year (when Ron Holland breaks out even more) I think it'll be a chip opportunity. I'm a hue Pistons guy tho, so could be blinded by success lol
If he gets that steady Jumper to Fall in more consistently, he's gonna be a problem. Cade to JD reminds me of prime "Stockton to Malone" or "Payton to Kemp"
If he can add playmaking in post a lot he be dangerous long he don’t add 3pt shooting keep it simple let the guards do that but he have such old big game
The fact that they are playing this well WITHOUT Ivy and/or Beasley is scary. Once they get one or both of them back. They will legit be blowing teams out every night.
I respect Tobias Harris, but the Stew’s rim defense only lets JD be more dangerous. I think those two need to start together
Well of course he can keep it up. Have you seen the other big men in this league? lol they all in the perimeter. That’s why so many guys are just getting triple dubs like it’s nothing. In the 90s, early 00s these guys wouldn’t be getting triple doubles every night. The league need big men like Duren. The closer you get the easier the basket. So he will keep it up and Cade will keep getting him the ball. What I like most about my pistons is they play the game how it should be played. They play defense, not crying about fouls every play, Cade isn’t hanging around the rim to stat pad, Duren isn’t popping 3’s all day, Stewart will shoot 3 but still is banging in the paint. Love my squad right now. Reminds me of the early 00s pistons. Just simple basketball with effort on defense.

If cade is healthy yes he can keep this up
Pistons are going nowhere, I have Brooklyn or Washington coming out of the East
he already a all-star
w video bro keep doing the good work
At 24 and 21 the Pistons could see 10 years of these dudes getting reps
ESPN didn’t have him in the best 100 players in the NBA 😂
His jump in ft percentage tells me that this midrange jumper is real.

JD is gonna get that bag💯
Don’t try be on our side now remember when yall talking trash keep that same energy 😈😈
Ben Wallace and Rashid wallace played well together. Duran and Beef Stew can work

The league has a pistons problem,
This team is obviously better than the knicks.
I say let him post as a priority, not as a time running out option. You can make him a superstar if willing to feed him.
Roman Catholic”s own I knew he was going to be a monster
Cade Cunningham and Jalen Duren is the next great Big-Guard duo in the making. A throwback style done with modern flair.
You don’t see how he works on his 3 point shot that he works on every day dude can shoot
Jalen "MAN-CHILD" Duren. will be the best cente in the leaguer for years to come!!!!!

He reminds me of Chris Webber from when Webber was at Michigan. Great hands and dominant around the rim
If you watch him play you know he can keep it up. He is so explosive
Pistons need to pay JD. He's a beast & is only gonna get better
I love this for us man! Detroit basketball!
If Duren can maintain this run he's having, he will be elite.
Lob City Hoes
At this rate they might start daring Duncan to shoot.
I hope Cooper Flagg and the Mavs come back like Cade Cunningham and the Pistons. I'm still rooting for Cooper it's just a rough start.
when ivey comes back, it's on the flo
THANK YOU!! I appreciate the JD love.

Contract Year He Hungry
He is calvin johnson type special sized athlete.
The NBA fixes their JD problem most games by giving him 4 fouls in the first 15 minutes of the game.
If he gets that steady Jumper to Fall in more consistently, he's gonna be a problem. Cade to JD reminds me of prime "Stockton to Malone" or "Payton to Kemp"

And we dont need another 7 footer
Remember when the Lakers tried to fleese the Pistons for a trade for Duran.

The Cade – Ausar – Jalen Trio is the future of the pistons plus stewart and holland off the bench , add veteran presence of tobias – robinson – levert
The pistons gonna contend this year
J D, is the next Mose Malone, but on a whole new level of nba center, of this generation of players. Wow😮😅😂wow J D
New here liked and subscribed
If you compare Cade and Michael Jordan driving the basket, this is what I see….
Jordan drives and flings and wags his tongue and his look is chaotic….
When Cade drives, he is pure artistry with his silky smooth flow and then makes very difficult shots with a liquid like fluidity….
He could average 40 if he wanted …..
Cade & JD finna be Kobe & Shaq of this era look out!
Wait til Ivey is healthy!
I've been waiting for him to attack the rim like this since he got in the league because I saw how ferocious his dunks are.
“Gonna be a problem” lol win something first
Big Fella's game is righteous!!
Eh he will probably end up on the Clippers 😂
Well of course he can keep it up. Have you seen the other big men in this league? lol they all in the perimeter. That’s why so many guys are just getting triple dubs like it’s nothing.

Antonio Mcdyse or Amari Stoudemire
