Can someone explain why Curry takes Amir out when he has two fouls. Is he going to play 30+ minutes ? Putting Max in was a brilliant idea because it's not like CHI are really tall or anything.
I love how this team just decided to stop playing defense after Rose left the game with his second foul.
Well, I think we deserved to lose that game. Can't recall the last time I saw so many mistakes and misques to close out a game ( that was a blowout ). It has to be coaching. Just no direction out there.
Thank you Curry for taking Amir out and putting Max on TT so he could continously abuse him, get in to a groove, and then going to the patented Dyess/Sheed line-up which caused more pick and roll abuse. Rip please learn how to dunk the ball next time. We did not need a 3 and it could have potentially been a 3 pt play. This team doesn't know how to finish games w/o CB. Will Amir ever play in the 4th quarter? Will we ever switch this effin crunch time line-up up ? How many more losses will it take ? Ok i'm on the bandwagon now. Curry you suck.
Coaching no doubt has played a role in woes but let's be realistic . . . the pistons are not a great team. They are barely okay these days. For all Rip's thirtiness shooting this team cannot convert down the stretch and are making some awful mistakes. I just wish we would tank this season and go lottery bound because I do not want to see this current group in the playoffs.
Joe D also suck.. This is not another "Wonder what's up his sleeve" moment.. he has run out of tricks.
Fabio got in for :15 secs? Glad I had homework to do. Man Curry just flat out sucks. Edit: I too want a lottery pick!
The GM who has survived completely off of his playing career and one championship. Only here. The league knows that he's no longer all that. And Rodney Stuckey is not a ****** PG. Max got one board and got manhandled by Tyrus.
What a terribly coached game in the last quarter for Michael Curry. He played Stuckey what the entire second half with no breather? Dice made some crucial mistakes in this game and I just don't like the pairing of Dice and Sheed as our two big men. Curry is going to ride his vets into the ground and Stuckey is the only other player that will get major minutes. It's enough to make a grown woman cry I tell ya! On a positive note I liked watching the Pistons much more with AI out with the flu. I'll take Will Bynum over AI anyday of the week, he brings really good energy, plays D and if he took the volume of shots that AI did he would be a scoring leader in this league. I noticed from the box score that Amir was a +13 and of course he is sitting on the bench during the times when we need D the most. Let's face it the Pistons are just an average team that have a hard time beating any teams regardless of their talent pool. Tyrus Thomas really wants to be traded by the way he played tonight and he was the difference maker for the Bulls.
Couldn't Curry see that the Sheed/Dice pairing wasn't working? Did he not realize he built a 15 point cushion with Amir/Sheed duo? Did he not notice that things started to go downhill when he made the change? What are the assistant coaches doing over there? Is Laimbeer still available?? He wouldn't stand for this type of play. There would be five new starters on the floor tomorrow!!!
Joe I believe still made the right move, we weren't going to beat either Boston or Cleveland so why not take the hits now and free up money in 2010. However, it is very painful at times to watch this team. My neighbors are going to call the police on me eventually for screaming loud obscenities at the top of my lungs. Stuck, rip, tay, you keep eveyone else is expendable. Joe please turn this around, please!!!!!
