I remember that well from the dark years when Tayshaun Prince was the best player on the Pistons. He would slump and skulk and the coach would get fired again.

What was sadder: Tayshaun Prince being the best Piston or Jonas Jerebko being the best Piston?

No, you're dark-side intergalactic encyclopedia salesmen. Unfortunately, the home office hasn't been quite upfront with you.
Dray needs to hurry up and get his 16th tech before the playoffs so that his suspension game doesn't matter.

Poor RoCo held the line so well for the Sixers but now he's irrelevant with a Redick/Simmons combo.

It was really Tayshaun, he was so so tired of the team and the city, and when Stan traded to get him back he was visibly miserable every second on the floor. Pouting Tayshaun, Moping Panther, sadder than crying jordan, taller than a ladder.

Remember pre injury bouncy Jerebko? He could have been a decent full time starter

Yeah, in the Kobe years we thought that guy was just a front runner, wants to be on TV more than watch the game type fan, but then he just ramped up even more for Julius Randle and D"Angelo, so actually he was just a really passionate. "YOU CAN'T HANDLE RANDLE" owned.

Vaguely. The nadir of the Pistons was during my college years so I couldn’t watch them on TV, couldn’t pay for League Pass and hadn’t figured out the best way to stream them illegally (not that it would’ve been worth it). I would just read recaps the next morning and sigh. The 2011 playoffs revitalized my interest in the NBA generally but I didn’t even gently caress with the team much at all between the Michael Curry and Van Gundy eras.

I personally believe it is due to how much ground players are covering so quickly on both offense in defense in addition to more possessions.

I woke upset about King Zing, that's never happened with a basketball injury before. This year has been awful for injuries. Maybe time to reduce the number of regular season games, or legalize HGH

Reffing in the NBA is hard and its getting easier to grab clips like that. Reffing is WAYY better now than it was like 10 years ago.

I'm curious about your intuition, are any of you guys convinced the Cavs have flaws serious enough to hamper their playoff performance, or is this just another LeBron boredom slump to you?
