i jinxed the Pistons, the Celtics just cut the lead to 1. Blame Whyachi, i'm like a bad basketball voodoo doll.
What was frustrating was that for many years, most of this board answered my Olshey criticisms with, "In Neil I trust." But now the same individuals say that they wanted him gone.
Pistons gave it everything they had against a superior team. I haven't watched a lot of Pistons games this season but them losing 28 in a row doesn't make a lot of sense. They have a better roster than that... they just don't know how to win games.
Pistons played hard, the Celtics put together a near perfect overtime. I hope Detroit gets their elusive win soon.
The Pistons struggled mightily to tie the all-time NBA losing streak record tonight, but they came through in the end.
Detroit has had a bunch of close games. Something like 42% of their losses are within 10 points or less.
I bet they lose their next 6 games as well. Their best chance is at home against SA on Jan 10th........ depending on who the Spurs sit that night
as long as they lose to Toronto im good. I just want that "over 2 seasons" bullshit to be out the window. It annoys me for some reason.
Raptors are about to get slapped around in Boston and then will be on a back-to-back when they arrive in Detroit. The Pistons' players will be playing for their lives. Can't even call it a trap game--they know it will be a fight.
I know people hate to hear it, but we did get to the WCF with CJ playing a major role. We’ve been horrible since we traded him. We didn’t win the title, but the Dame/CJ era was successful.
Ok, but how many players were taken after CJ that ended up having better careers? Giannis and Gobert. How many were taken above him that ended up not being as good? I count 8. CJ was a good pick.
CJ wasn't a bad pick. The problem was when LaMarcus left and Olshey decided that Dame and CJ worked well together as a back court. That's where the big mistake was made and it was made season after season following that initial misjudgment.
