Game Thread 2023-24 Game #5 - BLAZERS @ PISTONS - NOVEMBER 1, 2023 - WEDNESDAY - 4:00 PM PST - ROOT

[Whyachi]

the spacing is terrible! It's not a good setup

 

[Natebishop3]

Only down 12. Not too bad.

 

[beast blazer]

I have a feeling we're going to get a lot of 0 0 0 0 0 stat lines from Thybulle.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Problem with Billups is when things are going solid he is an average coach ( at best ) but when the team needs him to come up with something to stop the bleeding most of the time he seems kind of clueless on what to do.

 

[Whyachi]

hey... it's not a blowout. Good work Brogdon

 

[B-Roy]

It's one step forward two steps back for Scoot.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Who's got a brighter future, the Pistons or the Magic? They're both on the upswing. I think the Pistons have a higher possible ceiling but the Magic have a higher floor and would probably win a playoff series right now between the two.

 

[Predator]

I think scoot has a negative A/TO% so far this season, was not expecting that

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Raptors currently having a lot more success against Dame's new team than they had against his old team

I lean towards the Pistons because I think Cade is probably the best player between the two teams. I think the Magic are better right now though.

 

[Idog1976]

I think they will find their legs in the second half. Billups is a god awful coach. Also, the Pistons are fucking STACKED with young talent, DAMN! I didn't realize they had Marvin Bagley Jr. and Ausar Thompson is a perfect fit for them. I also think their torrid 3pt shooting will cool off. I think we can win this actually.

 

[Whyachi]

Grant has no boards or assists, lol
give ball, me shoot

 

[blazerkor]

All I need from Scoot right now are glimpses of brilliance and we're getting those. The consistency will come with time. I don't mind him getting all the reps possible at PG even if it means he's going to make a ton of mistakes, he will learn.

 

[Boise Blazer]

Unless Scoot has foul trouble I can't figure out why Skylar is getting any minutes. Scoot literally cannot get too many minutes at this point.

 

[Cugel]

No shooting without Ant. Blazers have no 3 pt threat. Scoot is disrespected at the 3 pt line : defenders dare him to shoot it seems. It would be nice if he was a 35 % shooter

It's just the 1st half.
Detroit might turn back into the Pistons 2nd half

 

[wizenheimer]

8 assists vs 10 turnovers...that ratio will lose about 99.7% of the time

 

[illmatic99]

It's one step forward two steps back for Scoot.

This is normal for 19 yr olds.

 

[AldoTrapani]

It's one step forward two steps back for Scoot.

He’s so bad. He’s a late 1st rounder at best. I don’t understand what the hell scouts saw in this dude

 

[riverman]

Bucks are geetting destroyed by Toronto at half...down 22

 

[B-Roy]

Scoot is feeling it.

 

[illmatic99]

Terrific 2.5 mins from scoot

 

[Natebishop3]

SCOOTA!

 

[riverman]

I hope we're a strong second holf team being young and having young legs

 

[Natebishop3]

Grant plays like a fucking rookie.

 

[illmatic99]

He was moving

 

[Whyachi]

Thompson bricked a dunk, Detroit falling apart

 

[riverman]

Scoots second 3 of the season

 

[B-Roy]

SCOOT IS FEELING IT

 

[Natebishop3]

Scoot and Ayton are cooking.
