    Going to have to play a lot better than this to have any shot at that. This game has just been sloppy and gross.

    That's true, but the Rockets are one of the best at beating good teams.

    It happens. The celtics lost against the hawks and the Cavs lost against the pacers. Good teams come out flat sometimes and the Pistons are desperate for a win.

    Matinee games are weird. I remember last years Toronto abomination as well. These MLK day games are stupid AF.

    Yep, this game is being decided in the paint. Defense and Rebounds. We missed Jabari and Adams today

    Jalen and Sengun are frauds, this isn’t what MLK meant by black and white children playing together.

    Kyrie and Doncic, SGA and Chet is where it’s at.

    Ime won not one, but TWO challenges? Too bad it was wasted on this sh*tshow of a game

    Maybe we're better off with him losing them?

    This was the first time in a long while that we just didn't have it. Fell behind early showed a little fight but not nearly enough to run with the Pistons.
