Based Pistons (he/him)

the original Piston and Sickle. tweets are my own. tweets may or may not be serious or literal.
I think Jalen Duren signing is the domino holding up any other moves in the NBA right now.
I am tired of these Detroit sports shitshows. same news stories over and over, none of them optimistic or promising a solution. Just more problems and perpetual waiting. August is going to be a rough month.
Damn. Would be excellent back up power foward

If Peyton Watson really worth 25 Mil a year?
Jalen Duren’s camp is threatening QO because they think it will motivate Pistons to allow for S&T right now. Fat chance.
It feels like we will never moved past this Jalen Duren saga. Idk as a fan base, whether he stays or goes. It is going to be very weird and off putting.
I see KD post with Cade on IG. Dude is obvious and if I was a Rockets fan, I would be pretty pissed. Issue is KD is mad expensive and idk how he fits
Idk why Pistons would want Benedict Mathurin. It is a weird fit for a guy who is a nonplaymaker and meh shooter I get it, back up forwards that can play 4 are hard to come by right now.
My prediction is that Utah Jazz will have home court advantage in playoffs next year.
The East is much better than West conference right now.
Okay. Now LeBron decided. Pistons can make moves. Hell maybe Draymond who is still unsigned be open to come home.
Was there really any other possibility than joining the team that would guarantee being a contender if he joined. Joining Cavs or Heat would just level the playing field in East. Joining Sixers would put over top.

I am sick of this nba off season. It is the final season of Euphoria of pro sports offseasons.
the biggest fear Pistons fans should have is Cade ever asking for a trade to go to his hometown Dallas Mavs and pair up with Cooper Flagg. If Pistons don't make the ECF within the next 2 seasons, that is going to be a reality.
The only reasons the Pistons don’t trade for PJ Washington is b/c years on his deal and the FO is not confident Duren won’t take a QO.
The 2nd apron is bad for the nba as it stands
I have to believe that Duren’s strategy right now is that if the Pistons don’t pay him that it will create bad vibes.
I need to get better at being friendly with people. Like trying to learn people’s names.
Should fans expect Cade to be the mentor vet to Ebuka Okorie as part of the rookie’s development? Or is Okorie’s flaws not something Cade can really help with.
I think this is a pretty fair trade as it gets Denver some pretty good return
I hate to be THAT guy, but Lanier isn't going to find himself in a rotation if his shot diet is 99% 3 pointers. His shooting alone shouldn't buy him minutes on the rotation. It is way too 1 dimensional and players won't get away with that in today's NBA.
Okorie's issue isn't strength. It is decision making as a self creator
reading the tea leaves that Duncan Robinson isn't likely to be on the Pistons next season. I think that would be a mistake, but I think he is being shopped
Maybe Trajan had a few too many misses this offseason.
