Westbrook struggled the rest of the game but went 22/16/12

Oladipo still doing all-star type things

Dwight Howard went back in time to go 25/20 in just 30 min

Seems like a lot of the national media already have a Celtics/Warriors Finals penciled in.

A lot of empty seats, but classy should be grateful that the Cavs quadrupled the pistons average attendance last night!

47 from Kyrie last night. On freakin 22 shots.

16 in a row for Boston.

I think it’s safe to assume we should have told Kyrie to fuck off and play with lebron. Should have never traded him.

It's still early, but it looks like I was wrong about Kyrie. I thought he'd have a harder time becoming "the guy" in Boston. How much of that can be credited to Brad Stevens?

I don't know how much of it is KI being "the guy" as much as it is Stevens having them buying in on his mindset. I don't think his ppg are really up this year. Boston seems to have a pretty balanced roster, as far as scoring goes.

I think most of us wanted to keep Kyrie, but pettiness got in the way. Stevens should get a lot of credit, because when Kyrie was alone on the court in Cleveland he didn't do shit. It's also an attitude. Boston is playing every game right now in November like it is a game 7, meanwhile the Cavs per usual go thru the motions. Boston will eventually regress to the mean imo. I am always wary of streaks (except probably GSW a couple years ago), and this streak is no different, especially since it is early in the season.

Knew the Clippers would be bad. But 9 straight losses bad?

Gotta assume Doc won't make it to the All Star Break.

Rivers needs benched so badly. My nightly box score check has been full of 3/12 type shooting performances.

He got his chance...bump someone else up

I will say the attendance in Detroit sucks, but I haven't been to a game at the new arena either. Ticket prices are ridiculous, $65 for lower bowl student and military discounted tickets is fucked up. I'm not trying to drop $200 for pro teams that just missed the playoffs, and that's if I can still use a college ID. Hell when you go through Ticketmaster or StubHub it's as much as Lions games, a playoff NFL team

Wait, you come here to brag about how the pistons are legit after every time they win, but now you’re crying about $65 tickets? This is after you bragged about that $40K job you have in Detroit. Excuse me while I LMAO. Detroit is a pathetic sports town.
