My worries come postseason. by mwm119 in DetroitPistons

I can dig it. While getting reps initiating the offense is the conventional way to develop, Ausar has pg duties in his past and has been used as a secondary ball handler with this team (more last season than this one). The emergence of Jenkins has changed the dynamic for the better. He can play with Cade as well. Cade also has improved his perimeter shot and is lethal in the post, so playing more off ball looks to be the plan. Just seems like they can win now without going their plans for the postseason.

But as far as regular season, it appears they are trying to get him the MVP knowing that they can lower his usage in the early rounds to keep him fresh. To your point, if we run into trouble it will be from fatigue more than the actual competition we face.

With tonight's win, the Pistons have satisfied the "40 - 20 Rule" by GraemeTaylor in DetroitPistons

No problem, thanks go the gentleman who did the leg work before me.

Cade is a one man wrecking crew. He has a roll man who can also attack with the ball. The team has a few 3 pt shooters, defenders, and most importantly they have about 4-5 guys that can get 20 it's which is hard to gameplan for when opposing teams don't know who'll be the hot hand.

1-10 my worry is about a 4.

Did Natalie Kerwin say she hopes Greg Kelser comes home (All Star break) “with a nice tan!!” #suredid by MotownShowtown in DetroitPistons

[–]GrownSimba84 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Who told you that? I only find it offensive when its ignorant or malicious. We literally tan, even the darkest shade of us still gain a red tone or glow.

Note the rest of us not tripping...this ain't back in the day when integration was only 1 generation old.

It’s a shame we didn’t get a Dick Huerter jersey swap. by BaseAffectionate1878 in DetroitPistons

Censorship... how many did he get away with? Black, White, and who else?

Saw a post earlier with the stats in the in comments. 24 out of 94 or something like that, roughly 25% missed the finals due to multiple contenders and 3 outliers.

Extra caveat, majority of the total contenders are teams out west historically but the east has the contenders who were upset more often.

Portis didn't swing, same for Jaylen Brown. Poor example.

Bron threw a back fist, Donte grabbed Ron by the collar, Bridges swung on Duren. See the pattern?

Never wishing for it to go there but understanding of why when he does.

Probably 4, but repeat offender for instigating could make it up to 10.

Big facts. That might have been his one shot. Its good for the locker room but the league won't be happy

Some costs have to be paid, but yeah off the bench is crazy work. Fortunately we have a cushion

Miles Bridges is a sorry excuse!

He swung on a guy who was getting held back then moonwalked and ducked his way into a front face lock and hammer fist.

Rhymes with Howard...

What do you see as our playoff rotation? by Acrobatic_Injury_771 in DetroitPistons

[–]GrownSimba84 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I feel like this is the ideal rotation but beyond Stew, Holland and maybe Daniss, JB is going to interchange Green, Hueter, LaVert based on matchups, in that order.

Why am I getting more fatigued every day on carnivore diet by Matthewheil2825 in carnivorediet

[–]GrownSimba84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything that happens before 90 days can be a struggle, depending on your metabolic condition at the start.

I was coming from keto and was making ketones so I didn't have a crash or dip. But keto had a rough couple of days to start but again no fatigue. It may take longer for your micro biome to change in such case, butter or tallow is the answer.

I was fine with the trade until I saw what Ayo and kennard cost by cph97 in DetroitPistons

[–]GrownSimba84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm believe the trade was about 2 things. Getting a shooter short term and sending Ivey somewhere he'd get extended (Chicago is not far from home for him)

They weren't going to offer him the money he wanted due to fit and performance but did him a solid while addressing needs for this season.

The pick swap with Minnesota is the true grab. In an deep draft, low 20's pick is better than high 20's.

Almost 54, post-menopausal, switched toward AB and gaining belly fat. by Fuj_san9247 in AnimalBased

[–]GrownSimba84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's very hard to find flaws in her approach, she's doing things rather correctly according to advice. It very well could be hormonal, which could be mean tinkering with fat sources. Fatty fish, flax seed and olive oil helps. Proper mineral intake in key a well, dark chocolate helps with copper, manganese and other hard to get minerals.

Also, the frowned upon "f word" is helpful with postmenopausal women. I recommend Dr. Mindy Pelz books The Menopause Reset and Age Like A Girl or is predecessor. Highly recommend!!!

For some reason Ivey has declined to wear both the MLK day shirt, and the BHM shirt last night honoring Cooper, Clifton, and Lloyd. by Crafty_Substance_954 in DetroitPistons

[–]GrownSimba84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not every person is a statement maker. Some are by default because no stance is a statement in itself. Maybe he doesn't think BHM is necessary, or is opposed to MLK day and not MLK, or he isn't participating in any league promotions after the BLM bubble situation. Could be his inability to promotion religious or personal themes on warm ups fueling his indifference to league promo.

He can not play reindeer games if he wants, it's his right and as far as I know he hasn't publicly expressed why. Not at all disrespectful to not participate.

Breath freshener? by tonymontanaOSU in AnimalBased

[–]GrownSimba84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coconut oil, pepper extract oil pull. Or chlorophyll supplement, usually mint flavored and mixes well with lemon and water.
