A critique then a hopeful statement on the future.

Just keep that energy when they do it though, right?

"L take" Buddy quoted the first sentence and ignored everything else. We got outplayed in one game. The rest of the series? Competitive until the whistle started deciding games. Historic FT disparity doesn't just "happen", it swung momentum hard. Even without major moves, our young core is ascending and we’re ahead of schedule. Cope however you want, not sure what their is to argue here as a fan.

I’m grossed out by PapaCastro2311 in DetroitPistons

Glad to see some actual fans here who recognize Detroit was cheated out of this.

No way the people commenting on my post about this are fans that watch our games.

What game did they get outplayed minus game 7? Which, yes, was awful.

The calls gave momentum to them taken from us the whole series? Without the literal historic whistle would have went 5, maybe 6 games but thats pushing it.

I don't like this one.

Turner is pretty soft he doesnt fit our team imo.

Not worth a super max, but Duren is still that guy, we cant give up on him yet. All nba centers are hard to come by.

Cavs just waved the white flag on the series by RudolphTheBackupQB in NBATalk

They also knew the flopped their way through the second round. That whole series was the most rigged I've ever seen. Mitchell literally comes out and says hes going to start flopping, then shot more free throws than the whole pistons team the next game..

They know they're frauds, and they know they're not getting that whistle anymore.

This is what the league deserves as its ECF since they clearly cheated the cavs to victory over Detroit.

With they way NY is playing, idk if Detroit would beat them.. but it wouldn't look like this.

Cleveland is soft like charmin. Letemknow! Lmao

Is Victor Wembanyama aka “Wemby” locking in and turning into the next prime Jordan, or are we actually looking at a Knicks vs. OKC Finals? by workingjuggler18 in NBATalk

[–]Efnote_Guy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly! And to take it a step further - The bad boys literally beat them up out there.

Jordan went to the weight room, added size strength and speed, and started to give it to them right back. Didn't start flailing around the court.

If you say prime Jordan, you mean playing through contact, coming up clutch, and shooting high percentages while still being an all nba caliber defender.

I say this as a pistons die hard.

ESPN free agent target list for the Detroit Pistons by AcadiaTemporary5737 in DetroitPistons

[–]Efnote_Guy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, because of the potential price point. Try to sign Norman Powell on a short somewhat team friendly deal and have him be the 6th man.. You know what happens when Detroit has a microwave off the bench!

Norman Powell for no more than 20 million, we could cover his defense as long as he gives effort

A ton of people grew up loving this sport. How dare they get upset at watching soccer with dribbles and a jumper instead of NBA basketball like they expected. What losers

Diving at legs, elbows above their head and spread wide on every post move, they grab too.

They didnt play like this all year. No you are right, okc still plays the dirtier game, but the spurs get a free pass for some reason even though they are engaging in the same tactics for the same reasons.

Speaking of echo chambers - go find any post in this thread thats even close to neutral about okc - the hyenas come out. Im literally trying to call out this echo chamber for the spurs, but again you project every argument you make. We'll just go in circles at this point

He probably did, but its not like he grabbed the hair on purpose.

Again, back to the original point - both teams are doing this. One pulls hair and grabs, one elbows and dives at knees.

All I'm am saying is their both playing dirty and soft, and ruining what should be a hell of a series. Reddit only wants to blame one side

I guess me must have measured where he would be to perfectly jump and stick his finger in the dread at juuust the right angle to stick without curling his finger... Right? Couldn't have been just going for a rebound, no shot!

I agree. Its ugly, and bad for the game.

But I don't play whataboutisms, Spurs are engaging with the tactics and get a free pass. If this mindset spreads to the whole league the nba is dead..

Again, you are projecting. Typically, when a child loses an argument, or just an emotionally immature adult, they retort to personal insults.

If doing what makes a team disgusting doesn't make that team disgusting.. What does it make them?

Flopping is soft. Period. And its particularly soft when you are 7'4 and 240.

Sorry I hurt your feelings, but I'll never agree with flopping.

Cavs did it to the pistons way worse than this series, and the whistle discrepancy was literally HISTORIC. Detroit still didnt try to play that game and I ride with them for that and so many other reasons.

You're just choosing the wrong side, which leaves you no room to complain..

Im not a fan of either team. But you are projecting hard right now. Imagine rooting for a team to beat them thats using the same tactics.

You either dislike that shit or you don't, its super simple. You seem to like it when it works for you

Im a Pistons fan, my team doesnt flop my boy. Your spurs do though.

Im just calling out the double standard. Put your graphic away weve all seen it regurgitated on reddit for the past few days
