Ok but y Ivey not playing more
Aloha and Good Day, Pistons_Jack! Thank you for the update. Hope to bounce back against the Clippers today. GO PISTONS!!! 🏆🏆🏆
We lost the game due to the coaching lineup choices. Ivey was red hot yesterday and he didn’t play at all in the 4th. Ausar no minutes in the 4th is crazy too. I don’t get what JB sees in Levert. I’d be totally happy if we traded him. I need to see Sassar get some minutes too now that he’s back from injury. He can shoot the ball now and we could use that some games.
JB did this in the playoffs with Ausar and watched Brunson torch everyone else he threw on him. He’s a good coach but these decisions will cost us playoff games (again).
“Searching for defense” while leaving the best defender on the team on the bench. Brilliant. 5D chess.
Maybe JB is thinking about the PO, maybe a loss is okay now in the season
I keep seeing why Ivey isn’t playing much. Y’all do know he’s on minute restrictions right.
JB knows what he's doing, I trust his judgment on our players……good to hear Jenkins is getting a full NBA contract…..he's certainly earned it. Will this lead to a Marcus Sasser parting 🤔
