Yeah they got no vets on their side to school them
Because our bench players aren’t even bench playwrs
This is disgusting and I hope Cade and Ivey ask for trades. This team has failed them
Do you even know what the rest of this team is doing?

What does the rest of the team have to do with him getting constantly swatted or turning the ball over with a bad handle?
People keep acting like he's Luka and has zero fault on having the worst losing streak/season of all-time.
Difference is Luka had no problems getting those buckets when he was 20 years old.
Cade is 22 and showing he still has difficulties going 1v1 vs tight defense or making quick decisions.
Can you see a 22 year old Luka losing 25 games straight?
At 22 dude went to the WCF, which included getting go-ahead baskets when the team needed it the most.
I'm not saying he's a bust or a bad player.
I am saying though he's not a #1 option on a championship team, during a time when the league is the most stacked it's ever been.
On what team with Cade being your best player can you beat these other monster teams with true #1's?

You gotta be mentally ill and/or blind to put this team's historic, like truly once in a century level HISTORIC failures on Cade, straight up. Kid at some point in his career will end up on a good team and inevitably ball TF out with a great career when all's said and done. For poor Pistons fans sake I hope it eventually turns around enough that it's with them and not elsewhere.

If i was coaching the team theyvwould have more than 2 wins
one thing Dallas always did was surround Luka with shooters. Giving him the space to do as he pleased . Pistons have done the exact opposite with Cade. Surrounded by one of the worst shooting rosters ever. Cade definitely needs to be better but Pistons do him no favors in his development

I agree that'll definitely help dude out.
However, him and Luka are still two separate tiers.
If it's the Finals for example where both Luka and Cade had similar teams, I don't think the latter would be favored. That's all I'm saying. Luka as a playmaker and scorer is highly more creative and advanced.
To beat the former team you'd need a better player than Cade to get it done and the Pistons should be on the lookout for that talent/player rather than think Cade is that talent. Don't make the mistake the Suns did. Booker is a great player, but they passed up on the chance to have a Luka/Booker backcourt because they most likely thought it'd hurt Booker's progress when in fact it would've been easily the league's best backcourts and maybe one of the best of all-time (as evidenced by the way him and CP3 got to the Finals and took the lead in a series vs Giannis).
Solid, good player. Not a bust and a solid #2/#3 option on a championship team.
However, not a special, A+ tier-type either that'll outright carry over the best of the best like a Jokic, Giannis, etc. That kind of player would not have the team where they are right now: they would've willed out one or a few of these other games, nearly certainly against a team like they matched up with tonight.

I can’t see many players playing with Killian Hayes and zero shooters outside Bojan doing much better
Objectively their individual players aren’t 2-26 bad. It’s too bad they’ll be remembered as laughingstocks though.

Cade and Ivey combined for 11 turnovers tonight
, those guys aren't PG's, period. That's problem #1.
