When Young is on, 90% of the time we are winning or competitive. His highest scoring games of 30+ were mostly meaningful.
-
Good move. big power threat to make up for not having Donaldson.
-
This. It is a matter of which Center you want to overpay for. Ain't cheap.
-
Eye test. Wood ignited their second unit on defense, got their offense into transition for easy buckets. He is also a threat from the perimeter unlike Drummond. He played 16 vs 27 min for Drummond so of course his production wasn't as great but his minutes on the floor were more impactful.

Where were you the 2nd half of last season when this team played .500 ball?
-
There is a reason Pistons have a losing record and he is right in the middle of it, as a veteran player, playing with veteran players that comprise their core. This team is 16-27. Why? Maybe lesser AD is a big part of the problem? WE are supposed to lose this year, as Schlenk said, predicting 30 wins. The Pistons are desperate to unload this cat on someone and I don't want it to be us. Just read Detroit Free Press on this issue.

I agree John should work on using his quickness to take bigs off the dribble.
-
It makes sense to me because with Adams, he is not only a better fit but he is signed through 20-21 season. That makes it easier to stomach giving up more without the risk of having a guy walk at the end of 19-20.

Pistons bench outscored Hawks bench 76-37. Len and Parker could have definitely helped...
-
Drummond was only 7-15. He had plenty of our misses to rebound. Rose and the Bench beat us. Drummond was the beneficiary of us trying to force feed the post due to not hitting from outside so the Pistons could leave shooters open and clog the paint.
-
Wood outplayed him.
-
Keep in mind the 1 hour time difference as well. They got to Atlanta 2 AM Eastern on a game day. Scheduled loss is right.

Cam can defend so well without fouling thats whats so impressive. It is even more difficult to do against players the league protects that he has to guard every game.
-
Yes it was an article day of trade I believe.. on 2k20 Trae is 4 overall PG Jeff 22 https://www.2kratings.com/top-50-point-guards-nba-2k20 BTW in my post above I meant to include Heurter. for me Hunter is the man off the bench for now, once we get a legit starting C and move John to PF!
-
For me Hunter has more to prove, which is ironic, as he should be more ready to contribute. But he hit a wall while Cam seems to be poised for a take off like Trae had last season. I still think between the 3 we have 2 starters and a 6th man at the Wing. Now we have a vet PG backup for Trae - which I don't know if you noticed in The Athletic article Schlenk actually wanted Jeff before the season started now he finally got him.
-
Trae can score very efficiently when he has help like he got from Killa today.
-
Brought a little D tonight, I see ya Trae! Defense by starters was good.
-
I think overlooked is the fact that Donaldson faded at the end of the season, fatigue perhaps, but his BA fell about 20 points the last 6-8 weeks of the season to .259. Started slow, got hot, faded out. I think it will help him with the DH in AL. I think NL goes one more season without DH.

Shot 38% from 3 senior year at VCU, 35% career.. Hopefully he can shoot as well as Crabbe and I KNOW he can defend better than Crabbe!
-
Hunter starting at PF. Vince is his backup.
-
He is starting Collins at C
-
I think Goodwin is getting the start at PG. Heurter and Cam its your time to shine guys. Collins do your thing. Its all about confidence with Cameron, its in his head. If he gets it rolling early he can keep it going as he did in Atlanta against Nets.
-
The Athletic's Sam Amick reported early Friday the Hawks “could have landed Drummond already if they were willing to include a first-round pick in the deal.”
-
Beal's nimbers jumped out at me, kg needs to show his choices now
