That will never happen

I don't get why the Pistons fans here hate Tayshaun so much haha.

 

[buzzy]

his contract probably

 

[CameronCrazy06]

So hate Joe Dumars for giving it to him (I know, they already do). But don't blame Tayshaun for accepting a contract that no team would have probably come close to matching haha.

I came to this conclusion after watching highlights of yalls game yesterday. I'm not saying they're bad, just that it's time to move on. All those Eastern Conference Finals, NBA Finals, the brawl, and so on. I think yall should get new unis to kind of bring in a new "era," I guess.

there was rumors about us getting a new alt with gores taking over and next year might be the time for that.

 

[Pugz]

his contract probably

no. his game style. his lack of leadership. he flat out has said he doesnt feel he should be a mentor to our younger guys. he iso's too much and completely kills our fast paced offense.

 

[RipCity32]

He is a ball stopper. Disrupts any sort of flow to the offense when he touches the ball.

 

[RipCity32]

If Drummond played Anthony Davis type minutes, I wonder where he would be in terms of ROY.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Lower than where he is now probably. The low minutes are why his efficiency stats are so high.

And words can't describe how bad James Harden is omg. Fucking scrub

 

[RipCity32]

While his efficiency might go down, his stats would go up. Given 30 minutes, no doubt in my mind his numbers would be better than Davis.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

His rebounding numbers would be better probably, but Drummond is nowhere near the scorer Davis is.

hes not as bad as people want to make it sound tho but i agree regardless.

 

[RipCity32]

Talent wise? No. But he still finds ways to score whether it be via the pick and roll or getting offensive rebounds and putbacks. Could get 13 a game easily given the minutes.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Easily? He averages around 13 per 36 now. If by starter's minutes (which he's not ready for), you mean around 30, it calculates out to he'd average around 11 ppg

 

[RipCity32]

He'd also get to the line more if he played more minutes. Enough to get 2 FTs I'm sure.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

That's all factored in unless you're claiming his usage rate would go up with the increased PT. But andre Drummond is a terrible FT shooter so idk why you'd want him to get to the line more lol

 

[RipCity32]

Meh he has his moments, he's been learning to use glass on them lately haha.

 

[RipCity32]

I can't believe Jerekbo hasn't played in a month, and hasn't played significant minutes since 11/23.
What the fuck is wrong with Lawrence Frank. Like honestly I feel like my little brother could conjure up a better rotation than this fucking idiot.

jj deserves better. i really don't understand why he hasnt played.

Such a better option than Daye and Villanueva. Makes literally no sense to me. Especially with the contract Dumars gave him. At least showcase the fucking dude and try to trade him. He's too good of a dude to sit on the bench, and he actually has talent. Makes no sense.
