In all fairness the Suns didn't have Booker after a BS ejection - who's to say they wouldn't have been up by a 50 piece with him?

Seriously though we are gonna now pretend that Isiah Stewart would've singlehandedly prevented the Pistons from being down as much as 35 into the 3rd Q and would've put them in position to deliver a knock out?

I'm assuming you meant some multi-verse Kang type variant and not the actual Stewart.



Man...you got got issues and clearly missed the joke...just come into this thread ready to be toxic and attack whatever post you can...

It's weird....


Truthfully a bit after I posted that I did sit back and wonder about his "fighter's chance" line.

Hard to take much from the Pistons but really happy with how the team, as soon as Book got ejected, rallied and played real defense and started to lay it on the Pistons. Showed some maturity, which is encouraging.

So I guess the way to avoid a trap game is to have the opponent punch one of your guys then have the refs run one of your stars. Might be hard to replicate :)

In all seriousness it is good to see this group get pissed off and take it out on the opponent.

Feels like this was the first blowout win of the season where the 4th qtr didn’t feel worrisome at all. Nice to have.

Royce is a nice player to have. Wonder if may start over Gordon going forward. Plays defense and plays bigger than his size.

He’s like a shorter PJ Tucker.

Tucker is 6'5 barefoot and 6'6 with shoes.

Royce is around that height too...probably slightly smaller.

Trust me, I've stood next to PJ a few times out in Old Town (like Bottled Blonde) - he's BARELY 6'5.

It's being generous to list him at that height, but he's got a thick lower body to allow him to play small ball center.

Yeah I don't think neither guys are actually 6'5 let alone 6'6. I think it was back in 2019 or something when the NBA forced teams to list the actual heights of players and Royce was previously listed at around 6'6 and was then relisted at 6'4.

Technically, that was just a KD game.

If he took the court, he played.

Which is why Beal doesn't show up on this count very much.
