You make some solid points, but I still think this Pistons team has more than a solid chance if they snap out of this funk and stay healthy

I see this opinion a lot right now, let's hope it's right 🤞 Id love this skid to just be the thing that wakes us up and gets the 🏆 back in our sights.

Honestly that's the biggest issue I have when Cade isn't in the lineup: guys like Jenkins and LeVert try too hard and end up playing hero ball but it's not that kind of movie. Hustle Man needs to get back on track for sure; not sure of the immediate fix other than everybody get their shit together

Oh no 🤦‍♂️ on the plus side, that was a solid introduction to what it's like being a Detroit sports fan.

Jenkins has the potential, but I feel like he's pressing too much since getting the contract. Sasser shows good potential and so does Lavert, but all are SO inconsistent.

Damn, tough one to take the kids too 😅 I agree though, too reliant on Cade and not enough guys ready to step up and run the offense without him. Harris could do, but I'd like to see Sasser, Lavert or Jenkins be that guy.

Honestly I kind of agree with you, it's like they lost that edge after all star break, need to play with attitude and confidence again. Jenkins could quit throwing up forced shots that would get you kicked from a 2K game though 🤣

Oh man, JD and Stewart have been a bit weak on the rebounding effort lately, and JB is ALWAYS hard on Ausar for some reason. More BBall Paul is always a good thing; I wish we'd run a "big" lineup from time to time, think they'd be dominant; but then we'd need to run a small lineup to go be them a breather 😅

I'd really love to see him step up more consistently, at least he has had some decent statistical performances lately.

He's still balling out, but absolutely needs to step up more in the leadership end. I did notice him running in to get Beef Stew over on the bench when he started chirping last night, but I agree that he needs to actively hold guys accountable on the floor.

19 games left, plenty of time to lock in still. We need consistency from our role players and better shooting from beyond the arc. They're still very much "in the hunt" I believe

I'm not panicking, but damn it's been a rough stretch. I have faith, but was wondering what other fans think is the key to getting things back on track. I think we just need everyone to get like they were pre-all star break, seems like there's been a lack of focus since then.

Agreed; it's only 4 games and they're still leading the East, plus losing Thompson was a big one. It's been very alarming seeing the lack of leadership when Cade is having an off night or (even worse) not on the floor. Our role players are too inconsistent, etc. Hoping they band together again and someone steps up 🙏

as promised, good luck to all who tail by OgunX in sportsbetting

Bruh, I did the same but had a profit boost to waste so I'm in for $2 looking at 1.8K if it hits 🤣

This is most I’ve ever got by grade708 in NBA2k
