Hey at least it isn’t last season where the practice squad plays because of load management. Lebron is out for today?

Yeah, ankle tendonitis. At least I'll get to see Hillbilly Kobe go off.

Unfortunately the Wolves don't play high $ basketball.

As a kid I went to see the Wolves twice a week. Tickets were mad cheap. Like $12-18 for the upper deck, and I'd just move to the lower level because nobody showed up. Now all these fairweather shits come in and the new ownership group has prices soaring. It's horse shit. They're not woth $80 upper deck seats. Even my promo tickets aren't worth what they'd charge. Just a bunch of bum ass pricing, fans, and product.

The price you pay to be relevant and good. When they become shit again then prices will drop lol

They wont be shit as long as they have ANT

I just remember going to see KG and the Wolves get the 1 seed. I went to like 35 home games that year. It was awesome. All of it was cheaper than season ticket prices too. Or you'd have random scalpers just offloading seats like 4 rows back for $40 a pop.

The Pistons look like shit at home against a shitty Jazz team. The Universe decided to sacrifice any goodwill the Pistons would ever have so that the Lions could stop sucking. At this point if the Pistons don't lose 30+ in a row it will be shocking.

 

[heavyarms21]

And fucking there it is. 25Ls in a row.

Pistons bless.

Dirk's single ring feels weighty. Probably not the hardest run of all time like the tweet claims, but still damn hard.

Fuck dirt. Only had his ring due to the jet and kidd bailing him out. His merits dont compare to the guanlet of true bigs, Dream had to go thru in 94'95. With no allstars or hof to help in 94. Dirt can kiss a rats ass and f off.

 

[llperez22]

poor pistons. They have 8 lotto picks on the roster including 5 guys drafted in the top 5. Monty williams has a long term deal and is the second highest paid coach in the nba behind only popovich.

 

[heavyarms21]

The Jazz were Playing without their 4 top scorers on the 2nd night of a Back to Back after losing at Cleveland. The Pistons are a new level of terrible. Their next 2 games are vs the Nets 1 in Brooklyn and 1 at Home, the Home game is probably their next best shot to end the streak otherwise they might get to 37Ls in a row before they face the Wizards , who are also fucking terrible.

I mean, Dirk was one of the pioneer stretch-fours and was one of the most deadly 7 foot shooters in history. His one legged fadeaway is mimicked by many players in todays game.

Prime Dirk averages 35-12-7 in today's game.

Was brutally averaging 2 dork fadeaway per game in my rec league last season. Almost as unstoppable as my 50 ft back foot bombs

I don't think many ball fans rate dirk higher than Dream

Dirk is still an ATG

50ppg and a triple double in todays nba

Vinnie Johnson is just great -- you can learn a lot about playing basketball by watching Vinnie Johnson -- the tempo of the dribble, the positioning of the body to get off the shot, always in control, and just cruising on the court minding his business coming through.... Vinnie was a great off the ball player and an underrated passer in the half court offense. Vinnie Johnson should have been on the Pistons in 1991-92 and could have helped them win more titles.

Lmao

That release and jump are fucking dumpster tier
