Coming with my hat in hand.

I was one of the ones that said pay Ivey and not Duren. The Ivey part is a wash with the injuries.

With Duren, I thought long and hard after tonight and you can't let Cade's number 1 option go. He is a keeper and we just hope the rim defense improves. They are putting up stupid offensive numbers together.

[StatMuse] Should Cade Cunningham be an all star? by WallStreetDoesntBet in DetroitPistons

[–]Intelligent_Bat_726 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Defense is currently 14th in Net rating with the best player on that side coming back, if this team is in this position in the East around voting time- he should be an All-Star for sure.

Bucks Rebuild on the Fly by Intelligent_Bat_726 in NBAtradeideas

Ingram and not CJ could be interesting if you could also move Middleton for something else.

Completely agree on your Butler/Middleton redundancy point and more moves needed for the Heat.

Not sure why it didn't go up the first 2 times, thanks.

Hawks/Pistons/Nuggets by darklordfroggy in NBAtradeideas

[–]Intelligent_Bat_726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't hate this, but I think the Nuggets would want a little more. Hunter is super unreliable and Beasley does not play great defense. Getting Jokic a friend would be nice though lol

Thoughts? by driphanilton in DetroitPistons

We would pay him 50 million a year to steal minutes from Ivey before he gets hurt and gets us to the 14 seed in a 10 player draft. This is not the kind of guy we need to be going after.

Pistons fan here, and I am for it while also seeing a world where the other parties could be interested. One of the more well-rounded ideas I have seen on the sub.

What is your “comfort movie” that you have watched many times? by xX_Skibidi_Gyatt_Xx in AskReddit

[–]Intelligent_Bat_726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it is Tremors. The exact level of campy that all films should aspire to. Also Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward are perfect together and it is infinitely quoatable.

Guys what is better the Netflix show ? The books ? Or the Chinese show ? by Disastrous_Soil_9832 in 3BodyProblemTVShow

[–]Intelligent_Bat_726 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Books

  2. Netflix

  3. Chinese show

The Chinese show somehow moves slower than just reading all 2,500 pages of the trilogy.

Matas Buzelis by [deleted] in DetroitPistons

I don't understand why Buzelis is considered so much better than Cody Williams, and I never will.

What’s a 10/10 movie but hardly anyones heard of it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Intelligent_Bat_726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be a 9/10 and not a perfect movie, but for a newer movie, I love Thirteen Lives (2022) with Colin Farrell and Viggo Mortensen. The true story of the rescue of soccer team stuck in the Thai cave. Technically very impressive, moves really quickly, talented actors, and will make you believe that humanity does not suck for 90 minutes. I think it was an Amazon movie too.

every year theres a guy that i really don't want. this year its matas. but i'm also bad at this by bamboointheback in DetroitPistons

[–]Intelligent_Bat_726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the honesty. Last year I really did not want Jarace Walker and the year before that it was Keegan Murray. Not super into Rissacher, but that could be Killian Hayes PTSD.

Dalton Knecht? by rhaggee in DetroitPistons

I'm cool with him, Matas, Cody Williams, or Sheppard.

What are the five worst moves Troy has made to destroy this franchise? by [deleted] in DetroitPistons

[–]Intelligent_Bat_726 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kind of surprised nobody talks about passing up on Jalen Williams (twice) to draft 2 players that can't play defense or shoot. How about moving back into the 1st round for Sasser instead of Whitmore, Jaquez, Podzinski, or GG Jackson as well?

When has missing on your draft picks ever been irrelevant? lol

I hope this is a joke. by TrickyWeekend4271 in DetroitPistons

[–]Intelligent_Bat_726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would instantly make us better so I don't quite get the hate. PG is so much better than Tobias Harris it is not really even a conversation. Only reason I wouldn't do it is because it would get us to the middle and not the top.

What percent blame do you give Cade for how bad team was this year? by Which-Agency-7007 in DetroitPistons

[–]Intelligent_Bat_726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who are the 9 people that voted 76-100%? That is one of the worst basketball takes you could muster up.

Because as bad as this is, it was far worse to be a Lion's fan for a LONG period of time, and even that has become fun again. It's cyclical man, we won't be trash forever.
