The suspensions are in. Isaiah Stewart has been suspended for the next 7 games. Jalen Duren has been suspended for the next 2, but will be allowed to play in the NBA All-Star Game. A huge opportunity coming for Paul Reed and potentially two-way players Tolu Smith/Isaac Jones.

7 games….

Pistons run the Raptors out the gym improving to 40-13 on the season. Only the 4th time since 2009 Detroit has achieved a season above 40 wins. First time since 2010 Pistons achieved back to back seasons with 40+ wins. JB Bickerstaff has truly established a culture in Detroit.

Pistons are currently in the midst of their toughest stretch of the schedule, but they’ve still got a more than reasonable chance of reaching 50 wins before 20 losses.

I was very unsure of how it would go, but it looks like this format is working so far. Shortening the game seems to incentivize guys to give more effort, I get it

Wemby's pissed, Ant is talking shit...this is exactly what you want. Unfortunately might have to hand it to Adam Silver on this one.

Every time team stars comes down the court and Cade doesn't get a touch is a W for the opposition

Ant+Cade has to be what Team USA builds around for the Olympics moving forward, right? Surround those guys with great two-way players on the wings (Flagg) and guys who can rebound/defend/finish at the rim (Chet/Duren) and you're absolutely cooking. Tons of size AND skill

One last Kawhi gem before prison

Forget 60+ wins, how many national media members even had the Pistons hitting their over at 44.5?

Juan Cabal…fuck off.

I’ve gotten sick more this year than I think I did for the previous decade combined. Extremely frustrating.

Ahhh the ol' Tom Gores special
