I mean they were missing like 4 guys to start the game that are big minute guys and they arent necessarily a good/deep team to begin with on the second night of a back to back. They had a huge lead early so no excuses but i wouldnt bet on the pistons especially since they just collapsed on another big lead yesterday.
With that said, if holland made one of those free throws you woulda hit so what do i know
I agree. He is terrible in the clutch now. A turnover machine with a rim bending shot. He did make a couple of back-to-back 3s but otherwise he cost us. Holland missing two free throws at the end… WTF? I know you’re a rookie, but you can’t hit one of two free throws?
Pistons are 2-0 in cup games now. If they can beat Milwaukee on December 3rd, there is a good chance they actually make the playoffs or whatever it is called in December.
They’ve been more competitive this year. Games are coming down to the wire now. The team, especially Cade, has to start learning how to finish games. I think they are starting to get it.
That said, Hardaway may as well be a 3pt statue and Harris has played poorly. Duren hurt and no one really is a lane stopper. Ausar and Holland need this year to acclimate and they need to continue to commit to Ivey.
They are not playing bad. What would be interesting would be if the Pistons actually made it. It would be the first time in history the pistons, lions, and tigers all made the playoffs in the same year.
