2nd of a b2b strikes again. They all look awful 

CLP needs to light them up. No reason to play like ass on defense.

[NBASupes]

We are playing hard, just not playing effective. We still haven't figured out how to play B2B

[GameTime]

Bembry makes me miss Baze. And that says a lot.

With bruno back may as well start him.

[hawkman]

Good to have Teague back. Things will look better after a few games. 

[bleachkit]

70 first half points to the Pistons? Come on man. They aren't even that good.

Not for the points in the paint/rebounding issues though. We need a big.

[Bonkers]

The Pistons are shooting 64% from the field

 

Wow

Drummond auditioning for a trade from us.

Bembry is even lower IQ than Smoove. Didn't know that was possible

Oh absolutely. Schlenk needs to get a starting quality center on this team ASAP. I'm saying Teague will look better after he gets acclimated.

And that means LP has a low IQ too since he KEEPS giving him minutes

How long is it gonna take peanut head to realize that JC is NOT A CENTER!!!!

He worked against the Spurs because they are not that big a team with Aldridge. Drummond is a different story. Lets see if LP adjust or if he still tries to out quick the Pistons.

There's been a lot of back and forth about Drummond. I'm all for having him on this team as long as he agrees to sign long term. Hawks are misusing Collins. He is absolutely not a center. Getting a legit rim protector is priority #1 now that Teague is on board. 

[terrell]

Damn. Goodwin cant get a sec of playing time?

They know. And we know that they know. Doesn't make it sting any less when we have to watch them get abused in the paint. 

[txsting]

Ummm, Christian wood is better than Drummond.  There's a hot sports opinion.

Also, we need to try a lineup with Bruno and Jones, try to shut down the rim.

 

[NBASupes]

Wood like Bertrans doesn't have the size to start consistently but he's an high impact off the bench big

[BudBall]

Yeah, I really don't like Collins at center. He doesn't have the IQ or wingspan for it.
