Getting smoked at half by the Bucks 55-43. Out scored by 14 in the second quarter.

 

[biggunsbob]

Team can’t stop anyone right now. Down 63-49 early third.

 

[biggunsbob]

Pistons need a run. Bullock only one really scoring right now for Detroit .

 

[biggunsbob]

Every Piston that has played tonight has been taken off the dribble. Game is getting chippy I think.

 

[biggunsbob]

Just sucks watching ex pistons Torch us.

 

[biggunsbob]

Piston nice run to finsh the third with some second unit guys cut Bucks lead to 81-77 end of the third . Started to push the pace on offense and it worked for the run.

Found this article on Ex-Piston Middleton. He wasn’t a throw in in the Jennings trade. Joe D. wanted to keep him.

Tied at 86 with ten to go .Pistons have hit three 3’s in a row in the early 4th.

 

[biggunsbob]

Took a 89-86 lead but then missed a bunch of shots in a row and now are down 4 again.

 

[biggunsbob]

Bullock come on don’t fall for that fake. Looked like a bad call. Hey he missed all three.


Ball don’t lie!

 

[biggunsbob]

Blake stop forcing it please.... erhhh turnovers... back to back ..
Johnson has 4 threes. I think all are in the 4th.


My bad .. Blake with both dumb turnovers.

 

[biggunsbob]

Blake third turnover in a row.., and he misses a free throw. .
Burned on defense again. Greek freak is so tough.


Please Gm find a damn point guard. So Blake does not have to be the main ballhandler on offense.

 

[biggunsbob]

Pistons within three have ball 14.4 left.

 

[biggunsbob]

Blake misses three to tie at buzzer.

 

[biggunsbob]

Blake had 10 of the pistons 16 turnovers. This team needs a point guard . Look no further the Bledsoe for the Bucks. Johnson. Fantastic off the bench.

Even if true, it was still a bad trade. Jennings has NEVER been a good player, certainly not one that contributes to winning. We gave up Knight back when he had value for a PG that filled none of our holes and exacerbated our weaknesses.

Blake misses three to tie at buzzer.

Are we sating we don't have a better 3 shooter than Blake?

 

[everyoneneedsasmil]

Pistons do badly need a PG, specifically one that can shoot a little bit. Reggie has a nice 2-man game with Drummond, but it's still easy to defend because Reggie poses no threat from outside. But then, we don't really have anything to trade for an upgrade. Are there any decent PGs on bloated contracts or playing for teams desperately trying to shed cap space for the summer?

Technically Kennard, but his shot was off all night. After him, Blake is literally our best 3 point shooter. He's actually shooting pretty well (~37%), but let that sink in.
