In a blowout Game 7 loss the Pistons season is finished.

Definitely need another ball handler to help Cade.

    Not going to lie, kind of wanted the Pistons to play the Knicks. Either way, let’s go Knicks!

    Well that was a poor showing. I know Cade is basically their offense so if he can’t get going or if he’s locked down, they’re basically toast, but I expected their defense to at least hold. Instead, they couldn’t do anything against Allen and Mobley, and Mitchell was just having his way with them.

    Oh well, at least the Cavs will give the Knicks a better challenge I hope.

      I always have to remind myself that Duren is just 22 years old and the expectations of him are probably overblown. I hope he continues to improve over the next few years, and the Pistons manage to add some scoring to the roster in the off-season.

        His performance in the playoffs was historical bad. Second biggest dropoff in ppg for an all-star ever (1st bring Wilt 50>35). The more troubling thing is the drop in stuff like rebounds, the effort just wasn’t there.
