Detroit pistons basketball season

So you thought he was clutch?

JK we will just have to see. Sometimes he looks elite and sometimes I am disappointed.

G L O R I O U S!!!

And I mean that. I Absoloutely believe I could help them, not just in handsomeness.

They have massive drop offs in focus and intensity. We could cut that down. Toughness is something they are capable of, but not a huge part of their identity. Anchor that shit to who they are and what they do. Own it and BE it.

Would be a massive change in them. What would happen if they had ā€œsecond half of game 6ā€ intensity all game every game, instead of just in spots?

To jump in on this, look at his playoff stats compared to Drummond and you’d be surprised at the results. If you’re paying Duren max money, you’re paying him to be something he isn’t right now and that’s pretty scary because if he doesn’t improve significantly in a few key areas you’re dealing with an anchor of a contract. He was better in the 4th quarter last night but still far from what a max contract player should bring.

Refuted.

OK, right. seems that you were also sure the last time and it turned out to be totally false.
But keep trying.

False.

Something is fishy here. Why do you hate Duren so much? Did he kick your grandma, steal your woman or sell you a timeshare or something?

Not worth a response.

Here is a list of the $50 million dollar men.

  1. Stephen Curry (Warriors): ~$59.6–$62 million
  2. Joel Embiid (76ers): ~$55.2 million
  3. Nikola Jokić (Nuggets): ~$55.2 million
  4. Kevin Durant (Rockets/Suns): ~$53.3–$54.7 million
  5. Giannis Antetokounmpo (Bucks): ~$54.1 million
  6. Jayson Tatum (Celtics): ~$54.1 million
  7. Anthony Davis (Lakers): ~$54.1 million
  8. Jaylen Brown (Celtics): ~$53.1 million
  9. Karl-Anthony Towns (Knicks): ~$53.1 million
  10. LeBron James (Lakers): ~$52.6 million
  11. Kawhi Leonard (Clippers): ~$50–$52.3 million
  12. Paul George (76ers): ~$51.6 million

2026-27: $50,105,628 Here is cade next year, just squeaking in there. The salary cap keeps going up.

Duren is a mile away from this list in terms of production and helping a team win basketball games.

We had 8 playoff games and Duren has played terribly in 5 or 6 of them. Good in one and good in one quarter of another.

And its not just production. Watch him. He has almost no urgency. He goes up soft as Charmin.

Drummond was getting 20 rebounds in the playoffs.

Also - this team can not shoot and other teams shoot poorly against us, There are WAY more rebounds to be had in our games. Still, getting 10 in 30 minutes is an achievement for him.

Off topic but is anyone watching this 76er knicks game 2? Paul George is on fire

Last i checked he isnt on the Lakers so your list is now under review for potential fake news

In all seriousness, Duren so far in the playoffs has disappointed but to me it is much more the energy and defensive effort i have a problem with. He can improve those and it was much better in the regular season, but am i willing to make a $50M bet that he figures it out… good thing i dont have to right now cause i would probably prefer the sign and trade if i had to make the call on what we have seen so far.

You are free to check yourself.

And its Duren Charmin reply. Do you think Duren is worthy of any of those contracts.

This is where we are at. Super soft puffcakes replies.

Weak edit. Softer than your reply.

Sarcasm bro based on the fact that Davis is on the wizards.. thought the gif would give the hint

My edit was only adding my actual stance on Duren, my callout of dated information remains unchanged and was sarcastic AF. My bad that you cant laugh at yourself

Yes. Good game. Sixers are shocking me a bit.

I just want them to go 7 either way. Sixers with Embid or Knicks not sure it matters (if we beat Cleveland that is). Although with Embid he can always break a hip getting off the plane.

Alternatively, Oubres hair bugs me…
