The Official Detroit Pistons Thread

[GAVol]

Josh was 5/6 from the paint tonight, and 0/9 everywhere else.

I've never seen a guy with as much ability and so little basketball IQ.

 

[zjcvols]

Josh Smith was 0-7 tonight and got benched in the 4th quarter.

Brandon Jennings just played the worst 4th quarter in the history of PG play.

God help us.

Smith also didn't start, did he?

 

[zjcvols]

Nope, he didn't.

He actually did some other stuff tonight though. Rebounded, 3 blocks.

My bigger gripe tonight was the pathetic performance by Brandon Jennings. Never have I seen such an ugly 14 assist night from a PG.

Dre Drummond the monster

Dre Drummond the monster

Yes. This.

Was a beast all day. They couldn't stop him.

Dre Drum da realest

I really, really hope the Pistons sign Monroe to an extension.

They can be a very deadly twin towers combination.

 

[TBrown]

He's single handedly killing me in FT% but it's worth it

 

[zjcvols]

Yeah **** Miami!!!!!

Dre Drum 30+ boards per 36 min amirite

Dre Drum 30+ boards per 36 min amirite

He will average 15 for a season.

His instincts are as good as I've seen.

Gotta ask The Huff

Andre "Motha****in Big Penguin" Drummond kicking ass and taking ******n names.

 

[zjcvols]

Andre Drummond last six games:

16.7 ppg
14.3 rpg
2.5 spg
1.2 bpg
1.0 tpg
61.5% from the field
45.5% from the line

If he can ever become a 60% shooter from the line..........oh boy......

 

[zjcvols]

I thought Drummond was a good draft choice.

By no means did I think he would be this good already.

 

[zjcvols]

When Brandon Jennings is on, he's so fun to watch.

Defense won this game tonight. They were excellent. Monroe/Smith/Drummond didn't play that great, but the defense and Jennings get us to .500. In this East, a 45 win season is the #4 seed.

Is KCP seeing more time Z?

 

[zjcvols]

Is KCP seeing more time Z?

Yes. Will Bynum got hurt and continues to be hurt with "The organization is not saying what he hurt or how he is hurt but it seems like this is the best way to get KCP minutes so Cheeks will give the rookie run"-itis. Billups has tendinitis in his knee.

And not coincidentally, the Pistons FG% defense with KCP is 6% better than when Billups is in.

I thought he'd be a better outside shooter right now, but it's early and it's tough because he doesn't get many shots. But he's an absolute beast on defense. Dunleavy was getting good looks for Chicago tonight and KCP shut his ass down in the 4th quarter. KCP reminds me of another former SG for Detroit, Aaron Afflalo. I really like what he brings.

 

[zjcvols]

Also, strangely enough, Josh Harrellson fills a nice need for this team.

 

[zjcvols]

Andre Drummond had eight offensive rebounds in 30 minutes.

That's almost unreal.

 

[FalcoVol]

Beast.

 

[zjcvols]

I've gone into full "I'm really happy I get to watch Andre Drummond tonight" for this season.

 

[FalcoVol]

Don't blame you. Worth the price of admission.

 

[zjcvols]

I don't think I've ever hated a player so much just for how he plays like Josh Smith.

He's literally a ******n idiot.
