BIG THREE

Man, tight race between Mickey, Tim and Blaha in Beat the Number!

BEAT THE NUMBER

Tim McCormick: Bullock
Blaha: Ish
Greg: Stanley
Johnny: Andre
Mickey: Curry

One day, Andre's going to show up to a game wearing the exact same thing Blake's wearing and pretend it's just a coincidence.

One day, Andre's going to show up to a game wearing the exact same thing Blake's wearing and pretend it's just a coincidence.

And he's going to start driving the exact same car too.

I see you Stanley Johnson.

Ha! Fucking Ish, man.

Fucking Nets, man. Stop playing so hard against us.

Fucking Bullock, man. Blossoming.

I like that they're answering Nets runs with runs of their own.

Blake... has not played well.

I feel bad that I'm not there to watch Allen's hair in person.

Stanley is just a straight up bully.

Andre's well on his way to 30+ boards.

Allen's hair is magnificent.

Tolly

Best play of Stanley's career right there.

Go away, Nets.

Feels like it may come down to another Dunwimdie game winner.

Allen and his beautiful hair are no match for Blake.

Stanley! Dude.

"Mr. Big Charge" Anthony Tolliver

Dumb foul, Bullock. Dumb.

Allen and his beautiful hair are no match for Blake.

$$$

HAHA

Blake is bodybagging this dude.

I like that they're answering Nets runs with runs of their own.

These fucking guys just won't go away.

Was that Allen on Blake again?

So close to starting a Griffin appreciation thread. Play after play after play down the stretch.

One day, Andre's going to show up to a game wearing the exact same thing Blake's wearing and pretend it's just a coincidence.
For sure.

There was some quote/story from last week where Andre was sitting in the locker room w/ headphones on and Blake asked him what he was listening to. He replied "Myself"....You just know he did that hoping Blake would ask so he could play it for him.

Blake's ability to just get buckets inside at will down the stretch is incredible. Have we ever really had a guy like that?

Reminded me of Sheed torching Slava in game 4.

Reminded me of Sheed torching Slava in game 4.
True but Sheed would need a fire lit under him to do it.

We're fun to watch, fellas.

It was less than two weeks ago that I felt the familiar pain of No Good Pistons and stopped tuning into the games. So glad the team is interesting again.

I was pissed because I forgot to cancel my monthly league pass sub because they were just unwatchable. Trade happened like 8 hours after they billed it....

Dantley, though we didn't have him in his twentysomething peak.

Lol @ Dre rapping. That has to be the worst.

Pretty HYPE for tomorrow fam.

Dantley, though we didn't have him in his twentysomething peak.

This popped in my head instantly too.

Used to old man complain about this all the time. I'll always wonder if Sheed could have been this.

Does anybody know if Hush is going to be available for the playoff run?

I’m guessing that he’s probably free

True but Sheed would need a fire lit under him to do it.

Technical foul power ups. The association made so many things about 04 illegal.

Nash TV, Pistons -3

A RIVALRY RENEWED

I'm sure The Slice will be packed.

Potential Finals Preview in front of 15 people tonight.

BEAT LA!

Hurts a bit seeing Tobias in another uni.

Never liked that PUNK Bradley.

Still love Jon Barry and the Alternatorz

Love ya Tobias, but you're no match for BLAKE SUPERIOR.

Lou Williams is about to go off on us.

GETTING CHIPPY OUT THERE

Kennard is ROY and it isn't even close! That's the tea!

Doc Rivers is a punk ass bitch.

Doc Rivers is a punk ass bitch.

Matt Barnes agrees with me

Hooooly fuck, that block by that Clippers player. Figures his name would be Wallace.

Love ya Tobias, but you're no match for BLAKE SUPERIOR.

These terrible Andre hook shots are making me hyperventilate. Stop doing that! You know better than this!

Fun first half.

I don't know what got into Stanley, but keep it up brother.

These terrible Andre hook shots are making me hyperventilate. Stop doing that! You know better than this!

Man. At the point now where I'd be legit bummed to see Bullock sign somewhere else.

Man. At the point now where I'd be legit bummed to see Bullock sign somewhere else.
I think we have him locked in for another year.

He has been ridiculous. Free talent. Showed flashes the last few years but nothing like this.

Fucking Andre, stop shooting those.

Uh oh. Tobias is hot.

2006 and 2007 hurt me too much to feel guilty about all the calls Blake gets.

BLAKE FUCKING SUPERIOR

Lou Williams is about to go off on us.

Have always liked Bullock.

Starting to hope Stanley gets traded. He’s doing lots of harm out there.

Damn, this offense looks bad right now.

Feels like the Clips should be up double digits right now, but we're hanging around.

Starting to hope Stanley gets traded. He’s doing lots of harm out there.

Having a bad half.

Did you not watch the last 5 games though???

LOSS.

Our only hope is to keep getting to the FT line.

Having a bad half.

Did you not watch the last 5 games though???

Don't feed the troll Vin man!

Blake's block did more to motivate the Clippers than us. lol

I watched, he’s had some flashes, but he just doesn’t seem to have ‘it’ to me.

If we can get a re-do on him (a first), I’d take it. Would rather give Kennard his minutes.

Blake just doesn't have it tonight.

Straight up abusing Tobias, though.

Flashes??? you have not been watching.

Fuck Lou Williams

That...was not a good 4th quarter.

55-27 still in reach.

Flashes??? you have not been watching.

Ha, okay.

Kinda have to beat the worst team in the east today.

Take no prisoners.

Andre made a faceup hook!

That's actually probably bad, now he's going to think he should keep taking them...

2-2 on those now!

Aaaaand, that's why it's a problem.

Ennis III wearing Grant Hill’s #33

Ennis III wearing Grant Hill’s #33
Hahah, kind of shocked it wasn't retired yet in some publicity gimmick.

Moreland needs to come in and deck Dedmon.

Feeling lossy.

This is some bullshit.

That stupid fire siren they play in the arena after the Hawks score needs to stop. Think it might give me epilepsy.

Feels like we should be down 10

This is some bullshit.
Nobody's paying to see Michael Smith.

Just tuned in. Has Jameer played at all? How's Pennis been looking?>

Just tuned in. Has Jameer played at all? How's Pennis been looking?>
Jameer played in the first half and even hit a shot!

Penis has looked "ok". he's bigger than i thought he was.

Really going to need a heads up next time if you're not going to be providing the beat the number picks Z.

Sorry bro!

Fucking Blake and his acting, man. lol

Yikes. This is kinda concerning.

Liking Pennis.

LIKE ENNIS

ENNIS

LOVE JAMEER

George (or Greg?) was saying in the pregame that Stanley was looking to lose some minutes to ENNIS. That would be good.

JESUS CHRIST, ENNIS!!

Pennis is pretty nice. SMALL SAMPLE SIZE, I know.

So sick of that TROLL Glan.

Pennis is pretty nice. SMALL SAMPLE SIZE, I know.
It's not the SIZE that matters bro IYKWIM.

Jameer playing like it's 2009, fam.

It's not the SIZE that matters bro IYKWIM.

IKWYM

LOL!!

New dudes are winning this ball game for us.

LOVE Tolly.

Ennis is a lot bigger than I thought, and LONG, too.

Ennis is a lot bigger than I thought, and LONG, too.
That's disgusting. Pervert.

Ennis reminds me of Shawn Kemp.

Not sure how many kids he has, but neither is Shawn Kemp, LOL!!

Boom!

They're doing the Hot-Sauce challenge this timeout. Greatest promotion ever. A random fan has to guard hot sauce from streetball for 24 seconds to win $100.

I don't know if your guys' feed picked this up, but when Stanley launched that three he yelled out "EAT SHIT DADZIG!"

I heard it. Loud. And. Clear.

I liked Schroder better when he couldn't make a jumper to save his life.

I liked Schroder better when he couldn't make a jumper to save his life.
They need to switch Reggie or Stanley on him stat.

NANANANA NANANA HEY HEY HEY GOODBYE!

Man, when Griffin starts making his shots at 50%+ watch out!

Blake's jumper is broken

He's looked awful all game.

How many steps are there really in between "NBA Dance Team Member" and "Stripper"?

Seen enough of Blake’s “improved three point shot”. Take it to the hole and take your free throws.

fuck

Same old Pistons.

Same old Pistons.

Can't wait for the all star break, Vinny.

Can't wait for the all star break, Vinny.
So sick of these CHEATERS ruining Blake's party.

So sick of these CHEATERS ruining Blake's party.

I'm sick of it too, Vinny.

If they played us without any refs they'd get CREAMED.

Feels like we can’t ever get our boats out.

I hate Schroder so much.

He might as well play for the Heat.

This was the Hawks' Super Bowl. All downhill from here for them.

Meanwhile, the Pistons are TRENDING UP! This team is going to #BeImpactful.

Blake wants to be chucker Sheed when he grows up. :(

Got my new cable/internet bill this morning.

I take this as a sign that this is happening tonight.

http://i67.tinypic.com/3326zbp.png

Let's get back in the W column tonight, boys!

Hopefully the stormtroopers get lost in the snow.

Pennis: "I'm used to it [being traded]."

Poor guy. I want to give him a hug.

McCormick: "I've been traded 7 times."

Mickey: "8, bitch. We're sending you to Fox Sports Southwest."

BEAT THE NUMBER PICKS

Kelser: Bullock
Jonnny "Sugar" Kane: Ish
Mickey: Pennis
Tim: Andre
Blaha: Stanley

Please don't take 10 threes tonight unless you're going to make at least 4 of them, Blake.

Holy fuck

Emeka Okafor?!?!??!

I'm still having a hard time processing this.

That's a clear path foul?

I'm still having a hard time processing this.
Same.

That's a clear path foul?
Of course it is, as long as those CHEATING refs we had last night aren't there.

Love when Blake goes to the hole.

Andre keeps trying to show off that he's a "rim protector".

Andre keeps trying to show off that he's a "rim protector".

Just trying to impress Blake!

Just trying to impress Blake!
I'm all for it, he just needs to stop volleyball-spiking it into the stands.

Wow Jameer actually hasn't looked half bad.

Fucking curry.

Nope.

This is garbage offense in general though. Dancing around and then a half-hearted 3.

This may not be POLITCALLY CORRECT, but can't give up 30+ in a quarter.

Blake is just straight unstoppable in the post like that.

Mirotic looks almost helpess trying to defend Blake.

We gotta stop trying to play like a western conference team.

This may not be POLITCALLY CORRECT, but can't give up 30+ in a quarter.
LOL! Hopefully Glan and Hoe don't catch you.

LOL! Hopefully Glan and Hoe don't catch you.

Some people just want to live in an ECHO CHAMBER, Vinny.

Mirotic strikes me a the kinda guy who makes a lot of racist comments in his native language on YouTube.

The whole team needs to spend the next 4 practices just working on post-entry passes and lobs. Both for Blake AND Dre. It's one thing if the D is actively denying it but I constantly see just terrible passes, too high, too low, etc...

Trash defense.

more Blake acting!

Bullock needs to get that most improved player award.

Tolly's gotta be top 10 in charges taken.

Tolly can't guard ADavis, this is silly.

Tolly's gotta be top 10 in charges taken.

Big Charge Tolly, Vinny.

This team needs the ASB pretty badly right now to work out some of these issues.

STANLEY!

Ish. Get him the fuck out of there. You can't shoot guy. 19 left on the damn shot clock too.

Same ol' Pistons right now.

Blake with the "Ole" defense.

Somebody worked with Stanley on his shot. Whole release point is different.

SMFH

Team sucks.

Now that SVG has a vet backup PG, Buycks May never be seen again.

Not that that’s a bad thing

We don't even run any offense.

It's horse-bleep fam.

I just screamed at some poor telemarketer who kept calling because of this fucking game. Gonna give me a stroke.

Andre's playing like a little bitch.

Ennis is legit good.

It's horse-bleep fam.

Bullcrap, Vinny. It's freakin' bullcrap.

Let's gett his win and move to *tries fighting back the tears* 28-29, fam.

Haha, the stadium cam guy just got caught following 2 girls' asses.

If the Pistons lose again to the Hawks without Schroder, Bazemore and Ilyasova, SVG needs to fucking stop coaching this team.

Dedmon??? More like LIVEmon.

Couple lazy asses from Blake...

Dedmon??? More like LIVEmon.

Boom!

Damn, the Slice looks REALLY empty tonight. Things were looking so good a week ago.

That was a fucking charge.

Pennis in for Stanley. DADZIG would be fist pumping, IF HE WAS EVEN WATCHING.

Defense is still trash, they just can't shoot.

Ok, they can stop showing Dominique Wilkins now.

That's more like it.

LOVE Ish.

This is a shameful ending, regardless of outcome.

98 points to that team without those players? Yeesh

Gotta wait three more days for a game.

So upsetting. We righted the ship and everything last week. Hopefully we don't lose this momentum!

With an entire week of free time for practice under their belts, this team will be right as rain. Guaranteed.

Every day we wait, the rest of the league will only pay more.

Totally agree, guys!

Do :we: need a new thread for the second half of the season?

Do :we: need a new thread for the second half of the season?
You mean for the Playoff Push??

I think so.

GAMEDAY!

Who's ready for the playoff push?!

Oh god it's going to be so brutal when it's just the Tigers on.

Liking the ball movement so far

WHat a pass Stanley!

Last three trips down for the Celdicks haven't been good for Horford. Ha!

MAN. Bullock still looking good.

Damn, Ish!

HATE Tice.

I like you Marcus, but I hope you have a SHITTY game tonight.

LOVE Pennis.

How old is Pennis? Because dude looks like he's about late 30s.

Love how every time a player comes to Detroit they talk about how "blue collar" the town is.

How old is Pennis? Because dude looks like he's about late 30s.

He looks like Denzel out of prison in He Got Game.

Stormtroopers made it.

Jameer is useless.

Three point defense is still ass.

Theis is my most hated CelDICK ever.

I wish Brad Stevens was our coach. so not fair.

I wish Brad Stevens was our coach. so not fair.
He's so good.

This team can't pass at all.

Andre getting handled by Chris Andersen. SMH.

Getting OWNED by Vanilla Theis. Trash.

About time you stop being a bitch Andre.

LOL

Ish is unbelievable.

When's T-Mac going into the Pistons hall of fame?

When's T-Mac going into the Pistons hall of fame?
Gotta retire the number first.

This damn team driving me to drink.

This damn team driving me to drink.

Just don't drive while drinking.

Jameer is trash, Ish owns and I HATE BOSTON.

Andre is getting outplayed by Vanilla Theis. Chump.

No idea how this is a 7 point game.

Please get Stanley out of there

Fuck you Thiesce.
