How about call an effing foul on Drummond?? Lands on Theis with no freaking call.

Only two points but 2 steals, big block, 2 assists nice defense.I guess for some people that = trashI mean, the dude was getting constantly scored on, blew a wide open fastbreak due to poor ballhandling, and had two TOs that made up for his two steals.Not sure why some people on here are so overprotective of Brown and get butthurt when he gets rightly criticized. Just because he's played less bad than he has the past two games doesn't mean he's still not playing like trash.Brown wasn't constantly getting scored on. No one is getting butt hurt, but your post just wasn't accurate.Quote from: keevsnick on December 15, 2018, 08:05:18 PMQuote from: jpotter33 on December 15, 2018, 08:01:26 PMQuote from: blink on December 15, 2018, 07:54:20 PMQuote from: keevsnick on December 15, 2018, 07:53:52 PMThat was a fairly effective stretch of ball there for Brown.

Just because he's played less bad than he has the past two games doesn't mean he's still not playing like trash.He was not consistently scored on, I dont think he was scored on more than once or twice on a man he was guarding. One of those turnovers was a bad traveling call. And not for nothing but judging by the fact he was out there at the end of the half I'd say Brad would agree he played well.I mean, it *literally* is true. Went back and rewatched (with the help of fast forward) all of the first half possessions with Brown in them. Below are all the possessions Brown was scored on either as the man's primary defender in the halfcourt set or through bad fastbreak defense, leading to 13 points of Detroit's 57 in the first half, or 1/5 of Detroit's points. Some were worse than others, but most of them were due to Brown biting on fakes, not staying engaged with off-the-ball defense, or poor fastbreak defense not recognizing the need to pick up the lead man.2:38 of 1st quarter (bad fastbreak defense)1:24 of 1st quarter34.0 of 1st quarter (bad fastbreak defense)10:24 of 2nd quarter8:11 of 2nd quarter6:04 of 2nd quarterSo, yeah, he wasn't very good out there defensively for us, and most of it goes back to his poor BBIQ and propensity to bite on every ball/shot fake.And while his one traveling call was definitely a bad call, both of his steals were him happening to be in the right place at the right time with someone else actually forcing the turnover.

Smart has been making winning plays all 3rd quarter.It's too bad nobody else is really showing up.
Smartacus is leading our comeback
C's not out of it but they're going to need to improve that D immensely to pull this off. offense has been too easy for Detroit this game
