Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

First of all, Randle traveled down the stretch and refs missed it.

But love the two man game with JB and Brunson. I want to see more of that in the playoffs.

DDV is the best SG pair with JB on this team. I rather keep IQ in a backup PG/SG role and DDV starting. But I’m also warming up with DDV finishing and Grimes developing into a starter for now. As long as we do not have consistent slow starts.

I’m looking forward to him playing a three man game.

Missed most of game… what is up with Ivey barely playing?
VDesai @ 11/30/2023 10:02 PM
Donte made some clutch 3s and Randle with a cpl nice buckets to put it away. Sure he traveled but they only call it 10 pct of the time.

Was the best game I've ever seen Killian Hayes play. And that Marcus Sasser kid looks like IQ part 22. Was Grimes teammate at Houston

I vaguely remember 2nd of back to back with Cavs when they were missing 1/2 the roster and whooped us at the garden.

I’m warming up to DDV getting clutch mins and Thibs playing the hot hand down the stretch, outside of JB, Mitch and Jules, you never know who finishes in the 4th in those last two spots. Today it was DDV and Hart.

We’ll see who finishes tomorrow. Thibs is consistent and a “if it ain’t broke” kind of guy, why fix it. I wonder if Thibs keeps this same rotation tomorrow. RJ sat most of the 4th I believe. Probably load management with Toronto tomorrow.

Black Mamba Time

Grimes making me want to watch highlights of Elfrid Peyton 3’s.

Kid better wake up or he is going to start getting boo’d - he is as afraid of the ball as any player I can recall off the top of my head. Jared Jefferies had more confidence in his offense.

With DD it feels like it’s going to go in and his movement is succinct enough that he is getting himself better (more open) looks vs Grimes.

RJ starting to look like a slow turtle again.

Julius - hard to argue with his game - errors yes but the physicality on offensive end is fun when he goes downhill quick.

Brunson- thank you

VDesai @ 11/30/2023 10:18 PM
I would like to say that Mitch made 2 free throws at an in important point in the game late in the 4th.

Thoughts?

I get the sense Monty isn’t enthralled with his game - didn’t think Ivey’s body language looked great….that relationship could be one of the things dragging Piston’s down.

Some of those young guys are going to hit more pine when M. Morris and Bogey are activated could be tough for Ivey in terms of minutes.

Recall that the front office was supposedly trying to trade up for him in the draft and the draft earlier we wanted to trade up for Chris Duarte... When the Knicks look to trade up, like they wanted for Obi they seem to want to get players who aren't that great
