Official Game Thread: Pistons at Hawks

Need to hit the family up on Facebook  .  . that jersey and hat is what I want for Christmas.  Anything else they got me, they need to TAKE IT BACK.

What's the record for fewest points for a double-double?

[django2341]

They are killing us with that pick and roll play

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Bud thinks he knows best.  But when your roster consists of mainly bench players, your system does NOT work.

Don't be trying to reign in your best players.

Baze really needs to learn how to score between the rim and the 3 point line. Whenever he finds himself in space he wants to crash to the basket when he'd be better off with a floater or mid range shot.

What do you know, as soon as Dennis involves himself scoring, the offense grinds to a halt.

Drummond's point total has him up to 8-12-8 now.

Just peeped bball-ref. Wilt had 1 point for the Sixers versus San Francisco in November 1967. But he had 18 points and 13 assists, and who knows how many blocks and steals (un-recorded).

Since blocks and steals started getting recorded, 11 players have had 2 points in double-double games. Rondo was among three guys who did it twice, including in December 2014 while with the Celts here at Philips. All of them were rebound-assist double-doubs, except two rebound-block games within about a month of each other in 1990 (Charles Jones of Washington and Manute with Golden State).

LMAO . . . it grinded to a halt with all of those bricks by the rest of the team.  They were down 20 before Dennis even took a shot.

SIGN THAT $10K SHOT MAN PRONTO! #SportsCenterTop10

10th assist by Dennis . . . mainly to Ersan.

This is what Bud likes.  Dennis to be a facilitator . . but not a scorer.

Hawks down 17.

....it grinded to a halt in the first half, actually.

Seriously, one of the better Dennis games in a LONG time. But, still.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

LOL @ Ish beating Dennis at halfcourt . . . and the 2 Hawks between Ish and the rim just part like the Red Sea.  

Bud then glares at Dennis.  LOL . . tell your pet player "Delaney" to stop the ball when someone is going to the rim, if he's right there.

And . . . . Dennis is out of the game.

Let's see if the Hawks can make a run.

It's actually Bud's idea for point guards to be very aggressive, but I just don't really think Dennis cares, as he knows the team is bad so he's conserving even more energy.

[nathan2331]

Ersan is shooting like he wants out of Atlanta... and if he nets us a good return more power to him.

And right here it gets ridiculous.

I understand all the criticism in the world but that's just straight up hatin right here

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Come on Ish.  Come on Delaney.  Ya'll can DO THIS, because you move the ball the correct way . . .

[Lurker]

Why is John Collins in a game that is long over?

[Lurker]

For those that think Dennis Schröder is the Tank Commander....

 

...Kent Bazemore is the guy that really is. And since he's very popular in social media and the like due to the Baze Gaze and his story, he doesn't get much slander.

He's played aggressive defense all game.  And when he gets beat, there's no one at the rim to help.

Dennis is not, and never will be, a lockdown defender.
