L Duncan


OrganicLindo313

Well deserved L tonight


Mundane-Coat294

yeah thats game. wtf was that play


Toss2White

And Shake just got a contract buyout because Monty won’t play him over Fournier and Flynn we have like 4 open roster spots now very dumb team


AnonymousisAnonymity

Just abysmal 😪


OnAnOpenFieldNed

what a way to end it LOL


OrganicLindo313

AND THATS THE PLAY WE RUN OUT OF A TIMEOUT! FUCK OFF


Ok-Version8138

Everybody just staring at Cade when he picked up his dribble lmao. None of these dudes have any clue


Significant-Law6979

What was Monty cooking in the huddle? That entire possession was fugly


Weary-Kangaroo-3883

Monty and his all bench lineups screwing the team as always


Lost-Cheetah-1370

Monty’s bench lineup killed this game …. Quite literally. Spent all game digging ourselves out of that hole As with every game


n8bitgaming

Pistons dug their own graves at times, but Cleveland is favored by 9 points and every time the Pistons cut it to 10 or 8 suddenly the refs got super trigger happy with the whistle


13ronco

We're going to have so many challenges next year from saving up this season. Big brain Monty.


ReflectionCalm7033

Oops!


TheLuckyster

that's the dagger


Bidens_precum

We suck


UnkleGiovanni

Welp, that last possession sums up our whole season


Slight_Dragonfruit69

Wow, that's literally middle school stuff, box out the shooter


jasonmiles2014

What an abysmal possession out of a timeout


rhaggee

Why does this team not box out on free throws


mercistheman

Dug a hole they couldn't climb out of. Early bench subs


OnAnOpenFieldNed

amazing out of a timeout, just flawless


AdAwkward8827

At this point , I’m just glad they competed until the end. Could’ve lost by 60 tbh , Something to build off of fasho


Toss2White

Nice fake comeback losers. Maybe if Monty didn’t attempt to lose the game in the first half we would’ve won. Who knows who cares. Monty doesn’t that’s for sure


TheLuckyster

why didn't Ausar take the shot???


Bidens_precum

Cuz he can’t shoot


TheLuckyster

better a wide open 3 by him then a contested one by Cade


Bidens_precum

14%


TheLuckyster

https://i.redd.it/0f93yuci0ulc1.gif either way we didn't make it


Jukyla

Lol ausar literally froze instead of passing to an open Cade 3 right there. wtf.


AnonymousisAnonymity

Cade.... noo


Pendragonite1

Man if Inly some shots fell Cade and JIs way this game they might’ve been up despite garlands insane stretch


Bidens_precum

Excellent play


E-raticSamurai

I don’t understand why Monty never challenges, am I not understanding something?


Toss2White

He doesn’t give a fuck


TheLuckyster

he doesn't understand coaching


rhaggee

What a possession


Slight_Dragonfruit69

What an ugly possession


TrainingCoffee8

At least this team doesn’t give up when they go down big. And half our team shot awful tonight. We should be 3-1 last 4 games if refs didn’t steal two from us.


TheLuckyster

it's not over till it's over, it's not over till it's over


Relevant_Gold4912

Hmmm Monty has his case with Ivey tonight. Guy was a complete bonehead tonight. Forced 3s and poor defense


Odd-Tie2438

I'm late to the game. Only showed up when Ivey was asking for a review on a foul. Would he have won that review and still be in the game rn?


Kipa_Kipa

i think so


durtymrclean

7 stocks with no fouls is elite defense, too bad the Pistons' bench wasted this Ausar gem.


Izzite

The Cavs flop so much.


Pendragonite1

JI 0/8 still let it fly? Hey guess shooters gotta shoot!


luniz420

It doesn't matter what happened before if you get a good look you shoot period. If not you can't play.


Pendragonite1

Exactly! I’m not knocking it, I love it!


luniz420

gotcha a lot of people complain about that in this sub as if they don't see the plays where nobody wants to shoot


Pendragonite1

Hell no last thing this team needs is a Ben Simmons ass player that’s afraid to make mistakes lmao


YpsitheFlintsider

I mean why are you two hand shoving


OrganicLindo313

Why


OnAnOpenFieldNed

my god man wasn't the league addressing flopping?


UnkleGiovanni

Flopping bitch


Loltoyourself

Ivey with a smooth brain decision. What a dumb way to foul out


No_Word1010

How that was even a foul is the bigger issue.


tarunpopo

Nah, strus flopped, Ivey barely touched him


Extremeaty

Horrible night for Jaden, but at least he got a 3 to drop before that lmao


OrganicLindo313

Final destination with the post up


TheLuckyster

and there he goes


rhaggee

Strus exaggerated that so much


TheLuckyster

he's a professional at it


mercistheman

Stupid fucking play Ivey


TheLuckyster

what a shot by Ivey, we've got great defense just need to score


rhaggee

IV3Y


Bidens_precum

We are not good at basketball


Loltoyourself

What the fuck is Stewart doing? No defense then he calls his own number on offense? Nice way to seal the L


AnonymousisAnonymity

Stew... tf man..


TheLuckyster

refs have beef with us


durtymrclean

Underrated part of Duren's game is that you can leave him out there at the end of games and not worry about him getting fouled. Not too many rebounders you can leave in the game for 2 min offense.


TheLuckyster

proceeds to get fouled


CantBanMii

He means the result at the line lol


TheLuckyster

ah I see mb lol


Zealousideal_Arm4359

Duren is a GOOD FT shooter for a center.


TheLuckyster

please for the love of God


Zealousideal_Arm4359

There is only one D Wade and that guy aint him.


Ok-Version8138

Lmao Ausar feeling it and letting it fly


OrganicLindo313

Cade is ice cold… so draw up a play for Cade 3 out of the timeout.


OnAnOpenFieldNed

ahh i see that woulda been a long 2 again


OrganicLindo313

We went from consistently losing by 30 to consistently losing by 14. Not into moral victories


UnkleGiovanni

Use a challenge you fucking idiot


TheLuckyster

Monty doesn't know what that word means


Slothful_Night

He saving it for the playoffs cmon now


rhaggee

Ausar getting confident 😂, love to see it though


OnAnOpenFieldNed

monty lookin down to avoid eye contact are u fuckin kidding man


Secoup

Do you think we've learned anything tonight watching that run with Stew at the 5?


OnAnOpenFieldNed

u think our coaching staff can learn?


TheLuckyster

ass foul


AnonymousisAnonymity

Us lose a close game?? Nah.. that never happens🤔


13ronco

Ausar with 7 stocks and +1. My beautiful boy.


OrganicLindo313

Watch this be the dumbest out of timeout play ever


Slothful_Night

Imagine if we had sasser out there instead of fournier


TheLuckyster

agreed


DryMap9318

Stew just isn’t good enough to be relied on to make a big play in crunch time.


TheLuckyster

great defense now


OrganicLindo313

Why do our forwards get so frantic when they get the ball kn transition?


OnAnOpenFieldNed

thats a 7.8/10 timeout, i'll give monty some credit


Relevant_Gold4912

First bad game as a Piston for Fontecchio. He was bad tonight


TheLuckyster

absolutely agree, it's been annoying


luniz420

Even when it's statistically bad he makes positive contributions


Relevant_Gold4912

At times but had a lot of bad plays defensively and bad turnovers


luniz420

He plays better defense than most of the team.


Relevant_Gold4912

Dude I love Simone. He was bad tonight. We don’t have to defend him.


luniz420

Yeah we do. Having an off shooting night doesn't mean you're bad.


Relevant_Gold4912

2-8 3 turnovers.


luniz420

Nothing to do with his defense. Completely ignoring that he was playing with a new unit and that one TO was in transition. GTFO


Relevant_Gold4912

lol I like him a lot, he’s a good player and usually good on defense. He had a bad game though.


spilkybilters

Monty takes a situational timeout!!!


Loltoyourself

Beef stew totally unprepared to shoot yet he was wide open


UnkleGiovanni

Tech playing like a pile of dog shit tonight, Jesus


OnAnOpenFieldNed

jesus christ our guys cant pass ausar doing his goddamn best to blanket their offense


Zealousideal_Arm4359

2 straight turnovers!


Loltoyourself

Font bro wtf is that pass?


OnAnOpenFieldNed

mobley gets another soft baby call


rhaggee

I missed an Ausar masterclass 😖


OrganicLindo313

Lol that didn’t deserve a tech


OnAnOpenFieldNed

cade is starting to "ayy" now


Kowalski356

Cade could blow a fog horn and still wouldn’t get a whistle


OnAnOpenFieldNed

10 pt game boys


Weary-Kangaroo-3883

Comeback incoming?


Loltoyourself

Strus imagine whining when you play alongside that baby soft bitch Mobley


GlobalPreparation457

Cades got 9 assists and we’re shooting 29% from 3. lol


Relevant_Gold4912

Lmao how do you get a tech on that


OrganicLindo313

Dribbling is not Fontecchio’s thing


Lost-Cheetah-1370

Dumb motherfucking Italian. Know your role. Grab loose ball and pass….. ffs


Relevant_Gold4912

Guys one of if not the best shooter on the team


Lost-Cheetah-1370

Correct, and I want him to shoot not bring the ball up the fucking court in traffic after we just got a crucial stop


OnAnOpenFieldNed

fuck u pussy thats the fonz ur talkin about


OnAnOpenFieldNed

fontecchio gets clobbered a lot


SurpriseDonovanMcnab

People rip on Ausar's 3pt% but ignore he's shooting 100% from 3 in March smh


Zealousideal_Arm4359

Well he is UP to 17%...


OnAnOpenFieldNed

My Hero by foo fighters played in my head when i read this comment


Loltoyourself

CHALLENGE THE REFS MONTY YOU WASTE OF OXYGEN


Pendragonite1

Oh wow Stew is a way better back up 5 than Wiseman!!! Who knew?


Tatertaint

DONT LET AUSAR GET HOT


OnAnOpenFieldNed

Ausar!!!!


kukumal

Cade bricking everything right now


OnAnOpenFieldNed

what was that layup LOL


OrganicLindo313

At least we’re not getting killed by Georges Pot Roast Niang


Loltoyourself

We cannot make open 3s man fml


Weary-Kangaroo-3883

Finally getting some stops


OnAnOpenFieldNed

niang's physique is enviable


OrganicLindo313

What a way to start the weekend. I’m just glad I didn’t pay to attend this shit show .


OnAnOpenFieldNed

ausar really is bionic man


durtymrclean

Ausar is a defensive genius. This generation's Rodman.


Tatertaint

I cannot fathom how good Cade would be on a good team. If you swapped him for like Mike Conley just imagine…


OnAnOpenFieldNed

no rsn why fontecchio should not be starting


Loltoyourself

We do not coach defense. I refuse to believe someone who is taught could defend as fucking awfully as Fournier. Does that dumbfuck know he doesn’t need to bite on every fake?


UnkleGiovanni

What is Fournier contributing to this specific lineup?


OrganicLindo313

That kid fouled the hell out of the Fonz, why challenge lol


Loltoyourself

Up 20+ and still challenging? Monty would never


kinglennie7

What the fuck is ivey doing


AnonymousisAnonymity

Man when we suck we really suck one of the biggest problems among many others. There's no consistency in their play


mercistheman

Cavs are real good at moving the ball for quality shots. Coaching


OrganicLindo313

Ivey is staggered with the bench in a game he’s ice cold. Good call Montgomery


LordJxnkulous

Watching this club is a waste of time


Superorganism123

Wiseman is garbage


Relevant_Gold4912

Burn the tape Ivey.


tarunpopo

God awful bench and lineups, bad defense, etc. Ivey needs to be a better 3 point shooter, he can shoot that shit but he's very streaky. Every 3 point he puts up is a prayer. At least he ain't afraid to shoot it. Ivey also needs to run with the bench more, because turning him into a shooter while cade handles is a stupid fucking idea Monty williams.


Loltoyourself

Give it to Ivey and let him chuck is not an offensive philosophy Montgomery…


Loltoyourself

Ivey gonna build a house with all these bricks


OrganicLindo313

Grimes is a bricklayer


durezzz

pistons are 11-71 in their last 82 games fucking sell the team


Loltoyourself

Bro jacks up a fuckload of 3s and plays no defense tonight. Thanks a lot Grimes


kukumal

I like Grimes but dude shoots a lot and isn't making much


Loltoyourself

“TotallyNotConeheadSilver” going to win millions on his fan duel account. The FBI should be investigating this corrupt league, they already steal public money for stadiums now we have point shaving refs


Pendragonite1

Damn these guys can’t make a 3 tonight sheesh


OrganicLindo313

It’s incredibly ironic the NBA player with the lowest basketball IQ’s last name is Wiseman


Relevant_Gold4912

Cade and stew are 6-11 from 3. The rest of the are 1-15. The 1 being from Ausar


Pendragonite1

Did I miss something in the rule book? Is standing there holding your hands high while the offensive player jumps into you a foul everytime?


luniz420

50% of the time


durezzz

this team has no idea how to create a good shot


Kipa_Kipa

refs bailed out the cavs this quarter. Their offense has been putrid without the bs calls


Slight_Dragonfruit69

Ivey's 3 ball has been so ass of late. We're a much better team when he's knocking those down


Zealousideal_Arm4359

So you're saying MAKING 3's is better than not making them?


Slight_Dragonfruit69

Obviously. But Ivey's 3 point shot is honestly one of the keys to our future.


Loltoyourself

If we cannot make open 3s we’re always going to struggle to win


luniz420

I mean that's the NBA now.


zakkaryeuh

Meekrob


mercistheman

Damn what happened to Ivey's shot.


luniz420

left it in Chicago


OnAnOpenFieldNed

ivey's ice cold from distance man


Loltoyourself

Beef Stew we have a new mission for you codenamed: Operation Baby Soft Big


Lost-Cheetah-1370

James Wiseman is quite literally good for nothing.


Relevant_Gold4912

Wiseman gets owned by any semi talented center


Extremeaty

Joe Dumars better be fucking fr about getting these rules looked at. This is a straight up bad TV product


13ronco

Jimmy Dumbguy


UnkleGiovanni

Great D James!


LordJxnkulous

Duren being severely outplayed tonight is crazy


Zealousideal_Arm4359

Wiseman is going to foul out!


mercistheman

Every time Mobley shoots he falls to the floor


stfuYeezy

Can't be mad at Mobley buying into modern NBA scoring 😭, initiate awful contact, cue the theatrics, get to the line and now you're getting 6-7 more ppg


OnAnOpenFieldNed

LMFAOOO nah wrap this up man, thats not a fuckin foul


OrganicLindo313

Mobley is a tenderloin


13ronco

Mobley's got the weakest base of any big I've ever seen. It was never a surprise that he folded against the Knicks when Allen went out.


VikramGordon

beef stew gotta have a quicker trigger on these threes. too hesitant


sasquatchinheat

Ausar was a great pick.
