Why are the Pistons doubling Tristan Thompson?

Good opportunity to force a turnover because he's not a great passer/ball handler?

Offensively a lot of good things so far. Defense has to step up.

 If someone could throw a cross court pass Pritchard would be open for a lot of 3s.

Smart is a gambler.

That was a bad foul by Thompson to give them two free throws and a 2 for one just for reaching in after he lost out on an offensive rebound.

Jaylen has been supernova for the whole season.

Has Jaylen taken over as the team's best player over Tatum?

I think he has.

This team needs a 3rd star that's a "superstar" in order to contend that isn't Kemba. Jaylen and Jayson are very good, but we have a limited ceiling without a 3rd playmaking star.

I agree with other posters here; a 2 way big would put our team over the hump.

Oh yeah, he has clearly been the best player on the team all season so far. There's no reasonable argument contrary to it.

Eh. I still think Tatum is showing me a bit more overall as a scorer and facilitator, particularly as he's seeing more traps and double teams.

But Brown has grown as a one-on-one scorer for sure and its helping keep us afloat.

Still disgusted by our defense.

Not defending the 3.

Like last game.

We shot well and only up 4.
