The Mitt strikes.....

And that's why some people wanted Jeremi Grant.

That's a move that John Collins does not have in his bag.  And he must add it in the offseason.

 

Grant sucks, don't let this one good game fool you.

DET has beaten Boston, Cleveland, Charlotte and more.  This shouldn't get yall up in arms.

We played like total shit. They didn't beat us, we choked on countless occasion. Lou on fire and Trae playing like dog shit but leave Lou on the bench. No energy at all. Tied the game to go to ot and nobody gives a damn. This is to go to 500 and there is no sense of urgency at all.

Detroit has been playing pretty well, but it's taking a monumental amount of suck for us to give this game away that should have been a comfortable dub if we played even average.

It doesn't matter if he sucks.  He possesses skill sets that our bigs just don't have.   If Collins had a move like that in his offensive arsenal, he's a perennial All-Star.

And to move from 10th to 8th in the standings.

They don't care.

I'm so glad I missed this game due to work. These guys are allergic to .500. Inexcusable loss! SMH!

Little things.

Always like Grant.  He played with the proper habits as a role player so he has carried them over to a lead role.  You could do a whole lot worse than a core with him and Cunningham.

Absolutely no sense of urgency in must win games.

2 good looks at the end.   I thought Dre's shot was going in . . but it was an air ball.

 

This was a Vegas game.  Vegas got paid tonight, just like with Houston and Memphis last night.

 

Oh well . . . let the hate fest commence. 

 

[LucastheThird]

Deserve this loss. No urgency. No real want to

I'm emotional right now, but let the rooks finally get some real burn in these last few games. We aren't gonna make any noise in the playoffs anyway. This team as constructed is not a contender and I've finally had to accept that reality.

They've won 6 of their last 8.   

[JTB]

And still under .500 since December 5th….

 

YOOOOOOUUUUUUURRRRRRRR

ATLANTAAAAA HAWKSSSSS

 

im going to bed.

[BrazilianHawk]

they be like "oh we beat Washington so it's all good if we play like shit tonight".

No fkn Comment..............................

[gHost83]

I'm ready for major moves in the off-season. Bring in someone who wants to win. This is a clownish performance and everyone needs to be ashamed of it.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

I want to review Trae's shots tonight.   Pistons made life difficult for him, but I don't remember too many floaters at all.   A lot more off balance layups off the wrong foot, than floaters.  At least that's what it seemed like.
