Detroit Pistons are 8-2.

Detroit Pistons are 8-2. With Tatum and Haliburton's injuries. . They have a solid lineup, and Cade Cunningham is an MVP Candidate.

And they play in the lEast

The same East where Markannen was relegated to a role player.

9-2

14-45 :facepalm

They're basically playing an elite rim protector at all times between Duran and Stewart. With a few tough perimeter defenders, you can get by on a lot of bailout offense from Cade. The Pistons will win some rock fights.

Great defense, good role players and a superstar #1 option who is also not a liability on D. Cade is the best all-around player in the East besides Giannis.

Just like Dennis Lindsey greatly improved the Mavericks (for sh!t Nico tried to claim credit for), he did the same with Detroit.

Where next for the greatest living basketball mind behind Sam Presti ?

Lindsey is a quality basketball exec, but nearly every player on the court for the Pistons was already there before Lindsey arrived.

It was Kobe imitation night.

Lindsey is awful. Hopefully the wizard ends up in dallas!

Maybe that is why they are the lEast.

10-2

With no starters last night.

Right. The Jazz have unlocked his ability which he's rewarded them by carrying them to the playoffs and winning records.

Hes an all star because the west is the weaker conference? Dont know what you are getting at. Lauri is better right now than he has ever been. Players improve. Maybe its hard work. Maybe its a better fit. A combination of various things?

Amazing what is unlocked when a 3 level scorer isnt relegated to corner 3s. :bowdown:
