Did u guys really think that the A.I trade was going to help the Pistons?

He does not fit in our syste, in no way, shape or form. This trade was made for the future, for 2010.

But am not giving up though! If we keep learning from our mistakes, and keep on practicing we will do something BIG this year. Something bigger than the ECF!

So…. the Pistons lose every Sunday. The Lions lose every Sunday. Hmmmmm, could it be that the Pistons are suffering under the curse of the Lions? (Just Kidding)I miss Chauncey!!! And by the way, his team ( the Nuggets) won their game. Looks like the Nuggets are the winners in this deal.

good team, bad coach.

Vote Tay for the All Star team.

One more thought, How good is Larmarcus Aldridge? He was the best player in the whole game. Like I said before he’s going to be an All Star eventually. We could really use somebody who plays like he does.

Let me start off by saying I hate the media. What a bunch of freakin chumps. I like George and Greg but the rest of these guys are idiots. They talk about the same old crap every game. Enough with the Sunday game crap, and can someone please explain to me why the media is asking AI after every game what they could do differently and how they need to improve. Anyone else on this team could answer that question better than he could because they’ve been here longer.

Curry seemed pretty pissed after the game in his presser but some of this should go on him anyway. I don’t understand why you go away from a lineup that got you back in the game. Give the guy’s a couple minutes rest and go right back at it.

Is it just me or are the Pistons a better team when AI is not playing. I think serious consideration should be taken on moving him to the bench. It won’t happen because of who he is but one thing he’s not is a point guard. He’s not being allowed to do what he does because he can’t come off the ball. I say move him or Rip onto the bench and let Stuckey start.

In the end the outcome didn’t surprise me at all. I knew Portland was a good team coming in. Nobody talks about them, but I think they’re right up there in the West. They just play the kind of basketball that wins games. And the funny thing is that I feel like the Pistons are moving further and further away from playing the way they should. If we continue on this course we’re going no where this year.

The more games I watch the more I’m convinced that the AI experiment is not going to work.

Interesting explanation of the 4th-quarter lineup:

why do we get beat by 11 when we’re tied with 5 minutes to go in the game. wtf is that all about.

i don’t know about you guys and girls, but i’m sick of watching the boys in blue lose by double digits, night in and night out.

we have no fire.

The Pistons did lose about the same number of games this November that they have in the past two years; that doesn’t make it feel better, but it is true. I looked it up just because the way they are playing feels so lazy and Chauncey’s numbers are better than Iverson’s now, but when I looked it up, it isn’t that different than in the past. Hopefully, they’ll have a strong showing in San Antonio.
I like the way Portland plays!

I like this team too Nat, and I’m a big fan of Lamarcus Aldridge. Did you guys see the ball movement from Portland, that is how I wish the Pistons would pass the ball, too much dribbling and one and done pasiing.

Overall you can’t say a lot about the Pistons not giving effort, because the effort was there. And that was the loudest I’ve heard the crowd in awhile which was really nice.

I think our bench is better than our starters (at least they were this game.) I think we would have lost worse if the starters were in at the end.

But this isn’t a game I was frustrated with or anything, there were a lot of things the Pistons can build on from this game, if they take the time to really look at it.

Also is anyone else sick of the extra commercial break before the game, it’s so annoying.
