Book, Dunn and Richards are the new Big 3.

Richards has been fantastic. the parasite is killing us.

I don't understand why anyone Plumlee continues to get minutes over Oso
Oso didn't look great either, both stinking it up. We need Nurkic.
Love, Hurts.

Booker seems like he's better when he is option A and not trying to share the ball with KD. Is he the ideal 1a? Nope, but there is like what, 5 of those in the NBA? KD for all his strengths seems to detract from him and Booker when they play together trying to keep each involved. I hate watching it.

Book's back to working his midrange game we all know and love. That's why he's looked better this month. KD's midrange/postgame is where he needs to be as well wen he's not hitting 3s. Both are midrange scorers, not shooters. We know this and now the offense is taking shape around their strengths.

It's no coincidence tho, that our 3pt attempts are down from about 40 to 34 from November until now. There's got to be a balance with Book and KD's midrange shots and getting Allen, Dunn and Royce their 3s.

I would love if we would just ship the parasite out, get a young stud and a draft pick in return and roll with the team from there. Get us under the second apron give us a little room to get creative with the cap and roster and continue to compete

At least Bud has reacted and taken him out.

See, Richards goes for a block, Cade misses shot, Durant doesn't box his man so they get the put back, and just like that having a C doesn't even matter.

Two baskets made by Durant. Hopefully he's back.

Pistons announcers believe Grayson is Dexter and that he brutally murdered Marcus Sasser

Can’t let Sasser cook us. Stop it. Maybe Grayson should murder him

Not only on offense. Tobias is owning him.

It's crazy how bad he has played and yet you look at the box score and he somehow has 20.
