No Kevin Love, we should have won this.
You joking, right :lolbron: They missing 4 out of 5 starters on a already trash team. But somehow they're playing better defense than they were when everyone was healthy. At least this west coast trip all games were competitive and with watching.

CLE defense was good down the stretch but we had some dumb turnovers. We had the lead most of game. I get out starters are out but we was playing good enough to win. But hey we are a terrible team so no surprise. Sorta like another Detroit team...

First game I didn’t even bother to watch

No Cade. No Ivey. Duren still in bench role

So disappointing. Never seen so many injuries on a basketball team. Arnie Kander need to come back

Atleast killian seems to have waken up from them terrible first 10 games and playing like he did at the end of last season.
East side p*ssy and late night Coney island visits will make a nikka grow up fast. He playing like he finally not scared of nikkas without his big brother on the court.

I miss Cade and ivey so bad
Too many old dudes on the roster. I don’t know if the plan was compete this season but why Bogdan still on this roster confuses me. Trade that dude for some More youth with high upside.pull more deals like the one you did for Bagley.


If you can get a Cam Reddish and Grimes for Bodgan that’s the route to take.


I know y’all getting tired of watching them old nigguhs on the court. I was watching y’all game last week to seeHow Ivey would do without Cade and instead turned into the Burks and Joseph show:francis:

Even successful young teams with a gang of talent have contributing vets. This theory that young teams have to be that way from top to bottom is a ridiculous myth that basically started with making live and 2k rosters. Youth only learning from other youth doesn't work. They have to learn from somebody that's been there before and it's even better when it's one of their peers as opposed to just coaches. Players like Cade and Bey need to be picking Bogo's brain on how he's constantly able to get off good shots while being slow and unathletic. Plus he still holds value himself in several ways to the team. On court the front office gets to see how and if the core pieces fit with a deadeye shooter. Off court Bogo is still a hot commodity because he's showing he's still extremely effective with a premium desired skillset. And it doesn't make sense to rush and flip him when he'll more than likely increase his value as the trade deadline gets closer and those teams fighting for playoff position go on their annual arms race....







And shyt, half the young promising players injured now anyway :manny:
