Cade initiates aggression pushing castle down. No respect for that. Hope Castle goes after cade in the 2nd half

 

[spurraider21]

Can't watch the game due to work. What happened to Kornet?

some kind of knee to knee or knee to his leg. doesnt seem serious

 

[thiste]

I like that we still managed to put them in foul trouble even with our poor half. Let's continue with that in the 2nd.

yeah from castle to dylan to carter. Keep throwing bodies at him.

 

[Spurs Homer]

Playoffs wont be a cakewalk…this will be a good win and mitch is getting the boys clued in on how to stay focused and hurt the pistons with good EXECUTION In the 2nd half.

Believe.

 

[Spurs Homer]

Oh yeah, carter bryant needs to play…he was immediately ramped up to meet detroits physicality and mitch should go to cb over hb in this 2nd half…

 

[heyheymymy]

Lol scalabrine halftime show is tragically awkward

yeah let him get to 6 fouls before putting HB back in tbh

 

[spurraider21]

that clearly should have been a flagrant on Cade, and then a tech on KJ

Should have been a flagrant 1. Then a tech on Duren on top of that. Giving Keldon a tech was bullshit, he could have muscled Cunningham of he wanted but barely touched him.

They took their best shot with their goon ball bullshit and the Spurs still won the half. Just keep fighting, playing tough defense, and hitting shots. Vassell and Champ were huge in that half.

yeah loved how Mitch was telling him to not get caught up in Pistons game...play the Spurs way, get boards, and push the ball.

 

[spurraider21]

Have they made a damn FT this game?

we are 10-28 on 2pt FGs and 4-8 from the FT line

devin/julian 3pt shooting is the only reason we arent down double digits

 

[kjhip1]

Lol scalabrine halftime show is tragically awkward

gotta say i do like listening to Frank and Scal

 

[Ni-G]

yeah let him get to 6 fouls before putting HB back in tbh

That will be like 3 minutes?

 

[Dex]

lol Jazz vs Rockets next...should they even bother playing the game?

 

[heyheymymy]

Tech on kj was bs bc for all he knew pistons were about to go into fight mode like the Hornets fight a few weeks ago

Kj has a right to get defensive when the pistons show a recent tendency to brawl

 

[tearsofmorningdew]

That will be like 3 minutes?

3 less minutes of HB could be the difference in a game like this

 

[kjhip1]

lol Jazz vs Rockets next...should they even bother playing the game?

i'll watch just to hope for a rockets loss. its crazy how mainstream media still thinks this team is a title contender

 

[scott]

This reminds me a lot of the first OKC game. Another great test for our young team.

I believe.

 

[Rocalcio]

face of the league with only 7pts at the half

Maybe you should change your name here then ?

 

[Sec24Row7]

This Cock broadcast is horrible. We are winning the game and it’s all about how awesome the pistons look and how we suck.

 

[Snake Eyes]

Vic and Fox had rough halves. HB was atrocious. We missed so many layups. Have to finish strong!

The positives - We are up by 2 with our two best players having subpar halves. Devin and Julian are en fuego. I thought CB looked good. Harper brought some energy. KJ will finish those layups and hopefully get a call or two in the 2nd. Castle might be in Cade’s head. Let’s do this.

 

[kjhip1]

feels like refs treat Pistons like Thunder. They know how physical they play so they allow some leeway when calling fouls

 

[heyheymymy]

Mitch needs to level the team at halftime. Young coach must find the right things to say and the correct adjustments. The other little game within the game
