    For KD – Grant, Kornet, pp, Howser, Jackson, Gallo, JD (only if we have to), Kabengele + Godfather pick offer…does the math work? Or is it close enough we could do some smaller trades to other teams for comparable players that make a bit more…Whatever it takes without touching the other core…there is still a lot of value here.

    Could this work? Does the math make it?

  2. Brad-Stevens

    big shout DWhite, Rob and Hauser

    came up big when we short handed

  3. 1337speak

    Tatum is only getting better… just wow.

  4. Team needs to be able to be stronger when Tatum is off the floor. That could have gone ugly really fast.

    Also, what is the point of Grant on the floor? He’s adding absolutely nothing out there right now.

  5. ThanosIsDoomfist

    Glad Tatum decided to start playing in the 2nd half after stealing his soul back from Hauser.

  6. hewhomustbetamed

    Tatum really is just that dude. He has to sit and they almost blow that large of a lead. He comes back in & just took back over. Crazy.

  7. ImeStopPlayingDennis

    we need to find a way to lower tatum’s minutes

  8. Dafatveteran

    If Derrick White has a million fans, then I am one of them. If Derrick White has ten fans, then I am one of them. If Derrick White has only one fan then that is me. If Derrick White has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth. If the world is against Derrick White, then I am against the world.

  9. Big_Budget2929

    Gross but we like a short handed win

  10. PajamaPete5

    Anyone listen to game on 98.5? John Wolack was getting pissed at his cohost Abby Chin for texting during the call…was mad awkward

  11. Dazzling_Mechanic_98

    At the least I’m glad we got the dub

  12. zgamer200

    Robert Williams with just his second career 15/15 game(he had 15 points and 16 boards vs the Nuggets last season). I think it’s safe to say that all the worries about if he’d be come back looking way worse after the knee surgeries were a bit overblown at this point.

    > This team desperately need Durant, this sub needs to wake the fuck up.

    > Maybe you all will after we take another embarrassing loss to a scrub team. – u/dust1ng0ff

    Care to comment on your Game Thread silliness, dear optimist?

  14. Lightingfast31

    When are we gonna talk about grant. He’s been ass since December now

  15. Alloverunder

    Why did the Pistons play that hard to the end lol

  16. Organic_Climate_7585

    Some of you really need to adjust your expectations when we’re missing really important players. Double digit win is good.

  17. __TB12__

    Tatum is an iron-man but man we have got to find a way to get him more rest. It’s like they forget how to keep a lead when he’s on the bench (which means he’s the obvious MVP in my book)

  18. BobSacamanosRatHat

    Bad look for the bench.

    If Hauser is asked to do anything other than shoot a quick-release three it’s generally a disaster.

  19. nicklovin508

    Grant tonight: 2 points, 3 rebounds -11 against the Detroit Pistons front court. Idk man

  20. **Game Recap**

    Hauser turned into Steph in the 1st.

    Buffalo roamed in the 2nd.

    Tatum was him in the 3rd.

    Held off the return of the “spooky” 2022 Pistons in the 4th.

  21. buklau4ever

    man we should rest tatum more, joe needs to tweak his rotations a little bit to squeeze a couple more of min rest for tatum. like i understand we are down 2 starters but we gotta be proactive here in finding him rest

  22. Jpgamerguy90

    I really hope the PP stans are done. He’s a fun player to root for, undersized, gritty, but he’s a fringe depth guy. Will probably have a longish career as a 9th, 10th dude off the bench but that’s about it.

  23. plutz_net

    Geez, if you want to be the best, you have to beat the refs. What an officiating shit show

  24. hypercafspazz

    A road dub is big, nuff said. The boys showed some grit on the road. Hauser and White had big games and Tatum did HIM things.

  25. BannerEighteen

    Timelord stepped up bigly in the 4th to stop the bleeding. Sad that the bench couldn’t hold on to the lead after JT’s explosive 3rd quarter.

  26. nbianco1999

    We actually took care of business against a bad opponent instead of underestimating them and losing? It’s about damn time

  27. Awkward_Street1708

    HOLD UP👏WE 👏DEM 👏BOYS 👏

  28. porkchopxpres

    2 points and 3 rebounds for a guy wanting $15+ million seems bad

  29. CopiumAddiction

    Dudes in the game thread acting like a double digit win down 3 rotation players is their 9/11.

  30. slab_diaz

    JT needed that half time. timelord with big rebounds in the 4th. props to Hauser and D white for big first halves.

    standard win.

    pistons have a long way to go

  31. iAmTheRealLange

    Celtics are 1-0 when I order Kung Pao chicken at halftime

  32. Distance_Motor

    I cant be the only one who was thinking this would be a trap game?

  33. Non-NewtonianSnake

    Trap game negotiated. Thank fuck for that.
