PrintDetroit Pistons at Indiana Pacers, Feb 5, 2010 7:00 PM EST
Excuse the communications breakdown, DBB. Here is your game thread, without the standard details you've come to know and love. Discuss!
------
Sorry, everyone. Big thanks and steak dinners to Mike and Kevin for taking initiative to get a thread up -- at the same time. I hid Kevin's because it was a minute later than Mike's, but here's what he had to say:
Is it weird for anyone else that the Pacers have suddenly become the most plain vanilla team in the league? Other than that, it would be nice to get a road win.
DISCUSS!
Again, sorry for the non-traditional preview. Keeping with the theme: Discuss!

Pacers are garbage. Detroit should take this.

I remember when Tayshaun blocked Reggie Miller out of the galaxy
Detroit set the Pacers franchise back a decade. Their entire fanbase should loathe us.

mark champion was talking about how the indiana papers still talk about malice at the palace on a regular basis.
that one event fucked their whole franchise.
How many wins...
…do you think the Pistons will have by the end of the season?
How many do you want them to have?
I’m not one for tanking, but i don’t want this team to get stuck in the middle w/ something like 34 wins….almost enough for the 8th seed, but too high to get a high draft pick.
by Steve Kays on Feb 5, 2010 7:53 PM EST via mobile reply actions
I'd rather get that pick, whichever number it ends up
but as I’ve said, Detroit don’t tank.. I have no idea how it will play out.
"I didn’t even know Elvis was from Memphis, I thought he was from Tennessee." — Drew Gooden.
34 wins is totally out of reach
We’ve had 5 wins, FIVE, since December 12th. I think it’s safe to assume 30 is our ceiling.

modelo is a damn good beer.
I’ve lived in a latino neighborhood the last couple years and now I can’t imagine being without Tecate, Sol, and Modelo in ample supply.
Mexican beer is just so superior.
BOUT IT BOUT IT.

Hell, we only have, what, 4-5 wins out of our last 25? That might be optimistic…

its a pretty cool after hours place that sometimes is open after the lager house gets out.
its on brooklyn right behind lager house. its a pretty cool place, like a speak easy and it goes til like 5 in morn. i think it got busted in the fall but i thought they were re-opening it.
I'm going to Lager House tomorrow night.

I think Dumars HAS to make a trade...
Just to keep people interested in this team this season. This is painful to watch.
Yeah, pretty much TDPeezy
"I didn’t even know Elvis was from Memphis, I thought he was from Tennessee." — Drew Gooden.
co-sign
tay and/or rip should be traded to places where they have a chance to win… i love the fact that sheed and chauncey are on contendors, and dyess as well
tay and rip deserve the same… and us as fans deserve a fresh start, no one left from the 2004 days, having them here just reminds us how good we use to be… hopefully ben retires after this season too as a piston… he’s had a great year
that's exactly who Kobe Bryant is.
"I didn’t even know Elvis was from Memphis, I thought he was from Tennessee." — Drew Gooden.
plus the rape of the hotel maid
ain’t help his case none.
"I didn’t even know Elvis was from Memphis, I thought he was from Tennessee." — Drew Gooden.
Wow
Only 5 wins since Dec. 12?! That’s incredible.
Well of they go .500 the rest of the way (big if), and everyone stays healthy, then 33-ish wins might be possible.
I just don’t want to get to 33 wins by playing Rip, Tay, & Ben 37+ mpg.

Who else would you rather see than Big Ben play?
Wilcox?
Im with you on the other two, but Big Ben is one of the silver linings.
I'm not saying...
To just totally tank, ie, play Summers 30 mpg, but hey, throw Wilcox out there, Kwame, Max at center going small.
Big Ben’s great, but he shouldn’t be playing 35 mpg on a 25 win team.

Every NBA arena has an organist right?
When Detroit plays at home they should just get two cars to have a head on and let the horns go for the entire game. What I mean to say is that this team is a wreck.
Would it hurt to make Tay run until he breaks again? I wouldn’t miss him.
Fans should show up dressed for a funeral.

If we win tonight...
…we’ll have the same record as the Pacers. If we lose, we’re two games back. I guess Malice at the Palace killed both franchises—it just took a lot longer for the Pistons to die.

Why did Gordon pass up an open three? More than anyone else on the team, that shot is his responsibility.
MFWB should be attacking these dudes like Normandy right now
"I didn’t even know Elvis was from Memphis, I thought he was from Tennessee." — Drew Gooden.
That defensive sequence was pathetic—like some kind of bizarro zone scheme where everyone stands around the foul line.
Where is Daye Man?
Least they could do since we’re getting beat down.
He should naturally be gravitating to the D
he can go hang out at city club

Rip and Tay need to get over themselves.

Are they going to try to grab a QB this draft/season?
"I didn’t even know Elvis was from Memphis, I thought he was from Tennessee." — Drew Gooden.
Like who?
They’ve got the 13th and 16th/17th pick. Tim Tebow could be available, I suppose. Alex Smith is okay with me. Yeah… I know, I know… No Stafford. But we need to shore up or O-Line.
I was just curious.
Sign & Trade maybe. I don’t know. I don’t hate Smith either but I don’t think he’s a viable long-term QB.
"I didn’t even know Elvis was from Memphis, I thought he was from Tennessee." — Drew Gooden.
I don't think he's worth the asking price, personally.
I think they could do more with that kind of coin.
"I didn’t even know Elvis was from Memphis, I thought he was from Tennessee." — Drew Gooden.
