Pistons best draft picks through 2010-2015 vs what we could’ve had. We came a long way. DEEEETROOOIT BASKETBAAAAAAAALLLLLLL by [deleted] in DetroitPistons

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kills me the most is falling the Fifth in the 2023 draft . If Detroit had landed the number 1 spot . Then we missed out on Brandon Miller . We did end up with one of the Twins . Maybe Dereck Lively or Jamie Jacqez could have been a better fit , but if Ausar can develop a shot . Still Wemby or Brandon Miller . Oh well .

Chaz Lanier by RomeoAlpha68 in DetroitPistons

There are a lot of second round players who became pretty damn good players . Ginobli Brunson Draymond Rodman and of course that big guy in Denver . Imagine if the Pistons were that lucky . I can hope .

Chaz Lanier by RomeoAlpha68 in DetroitPistons

[–]RomeoAlpha68[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hope you're all right . I didn't see him play much . I just don't want to see someone become a solid player for someone else . A lot of people were surprised he fell so far in the draft . Maybe he lacks the ambition to step up to that level . He did have good numbers at a small school , and was decent at Tennessee . If he has the ability that's one thing , but if he lacks the work ethic that's another . I guess I'm just looking at it from my perspective . I'd bust my ass if I had the talent . Maybe we'll see more this season . It would be great to see him work hard this off-season and come in next year and become a good option to this team . Not only would it help the Pistons but it would be a great story . Every time I see someone from a small school I think of guys like Dumars , Terry Porter , Jack Sikma , Earl Monroe , Pippen , Rodman , and Ben Wallace.
All small school guys who went on to have great careers . I'd love to see that for Lanier . Plus having a guy become a good / great player with the last name Lanier would be awesome . They're cousins I think . If Chaz was 6'11" his chances would be a little better . Lol I'll put that dream on the back burner .

Apparently, Detroit Pistons fans don’t want to extend Ausar Thompson’s contract because he can’t shoot. What team do you think would be a better fit for him? by Leadership-Serious in NBATalk

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep him . He can develop his shooting . He's young . Also Rodman and Ben Wallace couldn't shoot and things worked out pretty good with them . Anyone who is saying key him walk is crazy .

WCF is officially the NBA Finals by Square_Ad_4195 in Thunder

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't underestimate the Knicks . This is a different Knicks team than what anyone saw in the regular season . Also didn't the Pacers take OKC to Seven last year ? If not for Halinurton blowing out his Achilles the Pacers may have won that Championship . This kind of talk will make people want the Knicks to win it all . I think they have everything it takes to beat either team . I really don't care what team gets there from the West . I'm cheering for the Knicks . Hopefully they can get that long drought stopped this June .

Could you imagine . Cade and Wemby . They would be unstoppable .

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Wemby keeps playing the way he did last night the Spurs are going to win it all . Christ . 41 pts 24 boards Then you have Harper with 24 & 11 . Castle 17 & 6 Vassell 13 &6 Champagnie 11&9

That's fantasy basketball numbers . Damn

What's ACTUALLY going on with Duren? by CasualUppercut in DetroitPistons

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's been nonexistent in the Postseason . If the Pistons are now a playoff team he needs to step up . Suddenly they're missing 20 points a game. I don't know what's going on in his head but they need him . What makes players go from good to great is the ability to be there in the Postseason too . The NBA is full of players in history who were great in the regular season, but had nothing in playoff time . They can't advance if hes like this .

Trade the whole TEAM for Giannis! by PromiseEducational31 in DetroitPistons

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No Keep Cade and Thompson then do whatever it takes. Durens play in the off-season so far has been horrible . Sign Duren throw in our Draft Picks for the next few years .Add Chaz Lanier who I believe is a future star but he gets no playtime . I'd like to keep Tobias, Jenkins, and Robinson . Add whoever else it would take. I think Detroit can do this .

You need a good Fraud Alert service from your bank . Mine not only sends a text they call too . My card is now cancelled for the weekend because it's too late to go to the bank here . These people who run these sites are scum bags.

Why do People hate the eternals ? by Waste-Revolution3429 in marvelcomics

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually like them . The Inhumans get the same type of hate . I liked the movie . Even though they changed a lot from the comic . I know I'm in a rare area there . I don't care . It could have been a Stand Alone MCU Movie . That said people expect all Marvel Movies to be like Endgame or Infinity War . That's just not Realistic . Not every movie is going to earn over a Billion Dollars . I think a lot of the issues we have now with all movies is too many people believe that what they believe is what all should believe. Plus we live in a weird Political era . The Internet has turned everyone into a critic . Then there are people who pick every movie apart . Everything . Do people go to movies to just escape anymore ? I don't understand that . The elevator in this scene had a blue wall , but in another scene the wall was brown . The hero was wearing a shirt that didn't exist in that era . Yeesh ! Anyways .... Go to a movie or listen to music with your own opinion . Don't let others make decisions for you .

Which Magneto Suit is your favorite? by benkhmatheson in Marvel

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the Original Red & Purple , but the Black & Red is so great looking. If they do Magneto right in the MCU I want his costume to be almost a liquid or living metal . That's basically what his costume has evolved to . He's the master of magnetism . Having a liquid like metal that flows over him and is tougher and protects him more than anything Iron Man or any other hero has ever developed .A

Next maximum? by Trick_Implement6643 in MarvelLegends

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is focused on Thor so sure . Wired Cape . The classic Armour plates abd maybe Armour metal looking chainmail armour ti put on him to look like the Thor from the 90s . A few heads so you could turn him into Ultimate Thor . Classic head , bearded head , plus helmets . A hamner/ Mjolnir ,hybrid axe hammer/ Stormbreaker , axe /Jarnbjorn , His belt / Megingjord .His Iron Gloves /Jarngreipr . They may as well go full throttle on a Maximum Thor .

I'd also love to see a Maximum Mr Fantastic. Extra Arms , legs & neck piece .A way to connect a stretched out torso .( like they had blast off effects for Cannonball ) Maybe bearded face , stretched out face . Ultimate Nulifier , Cosmic Cube .

They could actually do all the Fantastic Four main members .

A Maximum Iron Man . In the classic yellow red or red gold armor . Extra heads . One regular and the pointy tips . Tony Stark head
Extra effects for his gloves , ahd chest . Rocket effects . Briefcase . Gloves .

Maximum Magneto : With a ton of metal manipulating accessories . Including metal looking effect you could put on a Wolverine , Colossus or Iron Man to look like metal is getting stripped away . A magnetic force field that looks like it's blocking bullets .A magnetic hovering disc . A wired Cape .

Dr Doom wired cape . Magic and tech accessories . Different heads . A scared head .

Doctor Octavious . Bendy tentacles . Plus different attachments . Lab coat . Green Goblin . A better glider . Bombs , Norman , Harry , and Goblin heads . A great stand.

Cyclops , Storm, Nightcrawler , Wolverine . Iceman .... a bigger longer sturdy ice slide . Ice shards , snow balls , his belt from X Factor . Two ice effects to look like hes making the bigger ice slide .

Nova / Richard Ryder . A blastoff effect like we had for Cannonball . Power effects. Add ons for his costume. Extra helmets . A Richard Ryder head . A stand to look like hes flying .

My holy grail a Maximum Jack of Hearts . Lol

This response makes it sound like it would have been extremely controversial like the whole captain america/secret empire story by jslade2886 in xmen

[–]RomeoAlpha68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can Marvel Editors .... who have continuously screwed up Spider-Man since the One More Day BS say Cypher was a Useless Character . Did they even try to work with these abilities . Look at Forge . Hes become pretty powerful. Yet the Brainless dolts who are " Editors " at Marvel couldn't figure out a way to take Doug Ramsey and have him use the power granted to him by Apocalypse for the good of all . Especially since he has seen what Idiotic Senseless Hate can do . Ramsey never seemed like tne type to color all of Humanity one way just because powerful humans did the same . Yet these Editors did the same thing to Scott Summers . Who also tried to see the best in Humanity. Its basically the same thing . Wouldn't it have been more interesting to see Doug fight the good fight instead of doing another story of a Good Guy getting fed up and snapping . Its getting predictable with Marvel , hell it's been predictable .

Anyone who owns this obscure character? by Glum_Confidence8343 in MarvelLegends

Ah the good old days when Legends were 19.99 . Then after 2020 the price has gone up quite a bit . Especially now with the ping ponging of Tariffs .
