Weird flagrant call. I thought Duren made an honest contest and just landed under Durant a bit.

KD has a cut on his hand and has to sit. Pistons on a bit of a run now, down only 10. Hope KD can come back into the game.

Glad Coach is giving KBD some minutes, but he isn't really delivering in them today. He started and he's been out there for 20 min so far, but he has 0 points on 0-3 shooting.

Maybe he's just seeing what he has with different guys but I thought Little was starting to come on right before KBD took his spot.

Incredible. They call Yuta for a travel, then the Pistons come down the court, commit a WAY more egregious travel, no call. Oh well.

KD with a nice pull-up jumper to end the 3rd. He has 35 points so far; what a legend.

I don't think I have ever seen so many jump balls. Especially this game but the last few also.

This bench unit is absolutely hungry on defense. Really going after it. Fun to watch.

EG can't buy a whistle. Really good help on Duren defensively, Eubanks is handling him well.

Okogie and Goodwin are out there stirring up all kinds of trouble. Both dogged defenders and tough as nails. It's fun to watch them doing their thing.

Eubanks sets really hard screens. He gets called for an illegal screen about once per game, but I'm convinced it's mostly just because his screens hit with such an impact that you can really see the defender recoil back. So it "looks" like a foul even if it isn't.

Up 19 with 2 minutes left. KD sits with 41 points; bravo. Nice bounce-back game for our team that needed a win.

Isiah Thomas being interviewed and when they brought in Bol Bol and he said that he could be as good as Wemby and that he is the Suns best ball handler and passer. WTF?

He'll be running BOps in two years and give Bol a 4 year 190mil contract.

I was also just subjected to Isaiah Thomas' insane Bol Bol takes. Clearly by the end of it we really found out the actual reason; he likes his dad. :roll:

Well now we know who was responsible for the Bol signing. :lol:

They left us hanging. Did those "more kind words" involve anything having to do with Sasser being the father of his grandchildren?

And what’s the deal with Jalen Rose standing on the sideline all game long and acting like a coach? I’d be pissed if I had a seat behind him.
I was wondering who that was. Maybe he had a few too many drinks? Kinda weird.
