Celtics (35-42) at Pistons (30-47) Game #78 4/8/15

Why not have KO out there to provide a mismatch with the two bigs?

[SHAQATTACK]

Somebody explain Detroit it is in their interest to lose tonight.
 

I think the fact that Drummond was pretty dominant and has stayed on the bench for 10 straight minutes with 2 fouls shows Van Gundy is not being as aggressive as he could be.

Great, now we have to rely on Van Gundy coaching skills to win (desperate facepalm)

Yup.....we don't have Josh Smith to shoot the Celtics back in this one ....LOL

Does anyone else think it is a little strange though? 2 fouls more than halfway through the second quarter is not super big foul trouble and we haven't seen him yet. Did he do something that p---ed SVG off?

The announcers just nailed it. They play their best small, which pretty much limits them to have either Drummond OR Monroe out there. They just don't provide enough spacing.

I'll admit I don't know watch tons of Pistons, but my impression was that the two of them played a lot more together after getting rid of Josh Smith. They both play about 31 a game and both start so have to imagine they play a lot together unless they do some really funky rotation....

Well it worked pretty well in the first quarter with just one big in there. You'd have to think it'd be just as good if not better if you had two options. I'd like to see JJ and KO out there to provide that mismatch.

Agreed

Ugghhhh, Drummond's offensive potential is being sooooooo wasted in Detroit. Smh. I'd love to have the kid on the C's.

Btw, he just picked up foul number 3.

Finally Sullinger has a point, time for a 20 point 2nd half. :p

[Chief]

Bradley is a terrible passer.

I almost punched AB, how do you do a bounce pass that far into the lane?

People probably think it was over already, but barring the Hornets coming back 16 tonight they are pretty much out of the playoff picture now. This is the second team (along with the Pistons) to drop out since the impossible dream began several months ago.
