I'd be surprised if they were on the outside looking in come playoff time.

Harris is overrated

Mediocre motor

Very solid and unpredictable team with no bench.

They are definitely thin, but I wouldn't say no bench.  I mean Stanley Johnson is on their bench.  Steve Blake and Anthony Tolliver aren't bad.  They are thin so an injury would crush them, but that starting 5 will cause all teams problems with Drummond, Morris, Harris, Caldwell-Pope, and Jackson.

I agree. I think this year isn't the "it" year for them. Although I expect them to be pretty solid for the remainder of the year. Just wait until SVG gets into FA next year and makes 2 vet signings and I think this team is going to be a force next year.

They tried to bolster their bench with the deal for Motiejunas and Thorton, but Demo's back issues got it voided. Too bad for the Pistons.

Not a fan of Harris. His game doesn't fit inside the parameters of today's NBA offense (3PT proficiency, or lack thereof). I guess SVG liked his size and athleticism hoping he could be a poor man's Crowder? Yes, poor man's Crowder. I'd take Crowder over Harris any day.

Harris may be 22/23, but five or so years in the league is five or so years. I don't care about his age as much as I care about how his game doesn't seem to fit.
Long-form is far from dead, but please refrain from paragraph-laden posts! Who wants to read that?!
