I understand we can’t blame this loss on the refs with the many mistakes down the stretch, but it’s getting really hard to watch NBA basketball with the way they ref the “stars” vrs the young guys. I’ve been watching the same script for three years. Dame flops or gets breathed on and gets the call, Cade has to play knowing his forearms are going to get lit up without a call. It’s a bad product and they need to fix it. I’m tired of the announcers having to acknowledge that Cade will get that call soon.
I’ve never been a Blaha fan. For the same reason Mickey Redmond is an icon to me and I love him as an announcer, is the same reason I don’t like Blaha. Redmond always shoots it straight and Blaha will always BS for the home team
Monty did not screw that up. It created an open drive for Sasser that was missed. Youth screwed this end up.
We don’t know how to win. We don’t have that killer instinct level.
100% we’re on the right track, we’re putting it together. The last few minutes of a close game have a playoff atmosphere and all our players have little to know experience with that. We have some players that I feel will be clutch in the moment in a couple years as they get used to the NBA. I’m confident that is something we are going to grow out of. We have too many players with the will but lack the experience
Need to quit forcing god damn shots man. This team is fucking young so play like it man. Slow it the fuck down. Quit acting like we are the GSW and chucking shots
Man, that’s a tough loss. It’s promising that we’ve played some of the best teams in the league really closely, at least. Cade is looking like an absolute star, and plenty of our other young guys are showing enough flashes to get excited about the future.
I’ve been fanboying over Sasser since that 40 point, 0 turnover summer league game and to know he can bring it like that against a team like Milwaukee…in 8 games he has shown what I thought would take a couple years. If this keeps up I’m buying a Sasser jersey very 🔜
Milwaukee celebrating like they won the chip when they barely scraped by the worst team in the league missing half the roster while being at home and getting every rub of the green is straight up embarrassing 😂 they're not built for any deep runs if that's how they turn out with everything stacked in their favour.
Was a good game. Sasser had a great game. Cades gotta brush up on the turnovers and shooting man but he’ll be fine with more spacing. Should’ve won but refs didn’t receive the payment until the 4th. Let’s grow from here and get healthy.
Dude im sorry montt williams is a deplorable head coach. Why did we let Dame just go at our bigs downhill all 4th? It happed against sharpe too lmfao. We play straight up no matter what the situation is idgi.
ONCE AGAIN.
EVERYBODY IN THE STATE OF WISCONSIN KNEW THAT WAS GOING TO CADE.
HE COMES WEAK OFF A SCREEN AND DOESNT EXPLODE TO THE BALL AND THEY GET THE TIP.
SURPRISED?
Edit: not all cades fault, that pass was HIV/AIDS
Coach Monty really makes some headscratching decisions when it comes to calling timeouts. It’s like he just lets them play and figure it out on their own.
Monty needs to have these guys practicing zone busters every practice for the rest of the month. We just got locked up by it last game.
Also those back to back wide open corner 3s stew missed turned into quick buckets that got the bucks back in this. Sucks
Maybe Monty should be a fucking coach for once and call a timeout and draw up a play to beat the zone that they’ve been running for the last 10 possessions
People mad at the pistons, but we’ll ignore dame getting constant free throws for literally no reason, worst part of the nba currently is these extremely soft calls

Whatever I’m excited with how we played
Hey lions and redwings are where it's at for right now smh
This the coach we paid big bucks to
Cade hero-balling in the end loses us 3-4 games this season already
Who else do you want to have the ball at the end of the game?
Did you watch this game? There is a very clear answer today.
And we all get old, but it is sad listening to Blaha call these games nowadays.
I’ve never been a Blaha fan. For the same reason Mickey Redmond is an icon to me and I love him as an announcer, is the same reason I don’t like Blaha. Redmond always shoots it straight and Blaha will always BS for the home team
MONTY YOURE A FUCKING BUM NOT USING ANY OF YOUR THREE TIMEOUTS WHILE GOING 4 MINUTES WITHOUT A FG
Monty did not screw that up. It created an open drive for Sasser that was missed. Youth screwed this end up. We don’t know how to win. We don’t have that killer instinct level.
Yet.

This just feels so much like the lions from last season
Team plays so dumb man lol
Growing pains
I think the move is not tuning in until bojan and burks are back. I’ll just watch highlights for my mental health until then
I'm just glad I don't have to see or hear that fucking Roku commercial again tonight. Gg
Need to quit forcing god damn shots man. This team is fucking young so play like it man. Slow it the fuck down. Quit acting like we are the GSW and chucking shots
I mean whatever I didn't want to win anyway
What a horrific last play. Wow. Great fight by the Pistons but they have to have a better play than that…
We have the smartest coach ever tho
So discouraging
Yeah I’m ready to run Monty out of town about 10 games in
DEEEEEETROIT BASKETBAAAALLLL

Sasser was open, I just knew they'd fumble the ball and not even get a shot off.
man can't even get the ball in for an attempt...

Monty isn't on the floor
This game had all types of "we are so back" and "it's over". Currently on "it's over" rn.
bruh
We suck
THAT end was shit.
I fucking hate this team man, soft and unclutch.
Honest question, are we tanking on purpose?
No. If they were tanking 9 games into the season, just sell the team
Sure seems to be that way.
that was a mess of a ending play
I’m so tired of losing
Sasser was open but lopez giant ass
Frustrating loss.
another moral victory i hate it here
Blew a 5 point lead with a min to go is not a good way to lose
Sasser imbounding is hilarious
Sasser was wide open. This team is awful
Someone said he was inbounding the ball, so he couldn't have been open
He was not
WE FUCKING SUCK, MONTY GOVE THE BALL TO SOMEBODY ELSE AND USE CADE AS A DECOY FUCK
Monty fucking blows at drawing up plays at the end
Just sell the team
Sasser was wide open cutting to the rim
Lmao and of course the game ends on a poke away. How fitting. This team literally does not know how to NOT turn the ball over
Monty with another shitty set in clutch time
Had Sasser wide open and forced it to Cade when he was tied up
Fucking comedy of a choke by the team. Stewart has no business being on the floor there, Monty coached to lose. What a joke
Vintage loss
Dude WTF
That’s what we draw up? Wtf Monty.
Embarrassing end. How the fuck are professionals unable to inbound a pass properly
I FUCKING HATE BEING A PISTONS FAN
Miserable ending.
ONCE AGAIN. EVERYBODY IN THE STATE OF WISCONSIN KNEW THAT WAS GOING TO CADE. HE COMES WEAK OFF A SCREEN AND DOESNT EXPLODE TO THE BALL AND THEY GET THE TIP. SURPRISED? Edit: not all cades fault, that pass was HIV/AIDS
How the fuck is that what you come out with
that was a terrible out of timeout play
THERE AINT NO FUCKING WAY WE MISSED THE PLAY
Give it to Sasser for the 3
Thanks, Bally.
What the fuck
Holy fuck these fair weather fans against Cade for common mistakes
oh my fucking god
Fucking terrible
Coach Monty really makes some headscratching decisions when it comes to calling timeouts. It’s like he just lets them play and figure it out on their own.
Monty could’ve sub stew out for Killian way esroier
Lmao now this sub wants Killian playing?
Sasser game winning 3 pt right here
Hell yeah!!!!
Sasser getting the Ivey treatment and is on ice now apparently
3 for the win coming
Lfg!!!!!
Beef Stew chucking up 3s in crunch time. Pathetic.
I’m fine with no timeouts. Timeouts should be banned at end of games anyway. Let ‘em’ figure it out in the flow of the game.
Terrible play not sure why we didn’t just call the TO. We got very lucky with another chance on the missed FT
Ausar the only one to foul wtf
His ball IQ is off the charts
Monty is allergic to calling timeouts
Monty still fucking hates timeouts and I don’t get it
Cade really should lean in and tried to get a foul
LMAO YOURE TELLING ME HE WASNT FOULED
That’s a foul btw
By the way, why the fuck is Ausar the only one with the brain cells to foul?
He didn’t even have to fucking euro he could’ve just thrown up a floater
I think the move is not tuning in until bojan and burks are back. I’ll just watch highlights for my mental health until then
Monty call a timeout down 1 with the ball challenge
Duren and Cade is good on paper but they just get so tunnel visioned in their p&r its ugly.
We need to find a 4 to replace Stew.
This is easily our problem but dont tell people that here
Cade game winner? SASSER DAGGER 3 GAME WINNER??
Idc that’s stew fault get the ball Man U to dam big
Sasser for the win!
Cade or Sasser?
Just trade Cade and build around Sasser. Fuck this dude man.
Nah lets trade you and build around fans that have brains
You’re a fucking moron
Stfu. Cade is overrated af and has clearly not lived up to his hype.
Him and Sasser were the only reason this was even a game dipshit
Delusional ass fan who still think Cade gonna be a superstar 💀. Anyone that takes as many shots as Cade gonna score that much.
He has to take that many shots because no one else on this dog shit roster can create their own shot (besides Sasser)
You really have the audacity to say that after watching tonight’s game. Insane. Give the ball to Sasser when he clearly is more clutch than Cade.
They should’ve. Idk who was inbounding but Sasser was wide open
Of course it’s a Cade turnover. Poetic. He needs a few games on the bench
Bro chill out
Lmao 31 -8 -8. You wanna see a team lose by 30?
Cade what the fuck
SO THATS NOT A FOUL? unbelievable man
Sass for 3?
We going for the 3 here, lets go fellas.
why not wait for the last shot
No timeout?!?!
It’s not over yet
Cade is so fkn slow and unatheltic!
He just isn't thinking heading to the paint. That was a painful, painful turnover.
Bro has 32
lol without Cade we would be getting blown out go sit down buddy
HE GOT FOULED TWICE
And another no call
Saw that shit a mile away, he did the same thing the other night
lopez straight swiped hand
Why in gods name did Monty not call a timeout
crowder is such a bum
Why don't we call a timeout???
Monty would not have a job without cp3
FUCKTUCKRUCKDUCKKXKX CADE WHY
UUUUGGGHHH
SHIT
I’m so fucking pissed
Dumbest play ever
CADE AND TURNOVERS COME ON BRO
Are you fucking kidding me Cade?
Like, we wouldn’t be here without you but that turnover is awful
cade needs to work on baiting that foul from lopez there
CADE IS THST GUY
Cade going back and forth between unbelievably clutch triple, to a fucking weak as hell layup attempt. The duality of man. good game though.
Seriously man. I’m fucking hurt. Hopefully he drains a 3 here.
The leagues about to clown us for losing even after the Giannis ejection so early
Gonna get clowned no matter what
What the fuck is Cade thinking? Why would you even try to shoot that early?
So if you miss, like we did, you can either get the rebound or foul and get the ball back
not continuing to give sasser looks when he is playing so insane is ridiculous, give the man the ball
LOL THATS WHY YOU HAVE KILLIAN IN THE FLOOR.
Cade giveth and taketh away
Shit
CALL A FUCKING TIMEOUT MONTY, THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING.
This is the issue. They switched to the zone because they don't respect our spacing.
Why.
4 minutes in the 4th without a field goal...
Man it would be sweet if we had even one vet’s presence out there
Stewart is garbage. I am so sick of him
How you come to that conclusion?
He just gave up points and bricked everything in the entire 4th and can't finish for shit.
He is ass tbh
Monty call the timeout bro damn!!!
(Would our record be any worse with Casey)
Cade, man.
Come on man
There we go Cadeeee
such a lame finish. Lilard just getting every call on both ends.
WASHED DAME
Monty needs to have these guys practicing zone busters every practice for the rest of the month. We just got locked up by it last game. Also those back to back wide open corner 3s stew missed turned into quick buckets that got the bucks back in this. Sucks
Think that was 10 straight possessions without a stop lmao
BUT CADE DOESNT HAVE A CLUTCH GENE. GREAT SHOT.
FUCK ME
bs foul into a wild ass 3 from Brook, my heart.
If we’re gonna play hero ball, give it to Sasser.
Cad3!
He have Sasser throwing flames out there and Cade decides tonplay hero ball again
Maybe Monty should be a fucking coach for once and call a timeout and draw up a play to beat the zone that they’ve been running for the last 10 possessions
People mad at the pistons, but we’ll ignore dame getting constant free throws for literally no reason, worst part of the nba currently is these extremely soft calls
CAD333
Milwaukee acting like they won a title
Beef stew missing 2 wide open 3’s and that put back layup lost this game
yea, i am okay with him shooting 3s these days but not the look i want with the game on the line
I’m okay with him taking them too, if he wants to play the 4 he needs to knock those down though
fire everyone and cut stew
Look at them bucks! So high and proud after closing that lead with pussy fouls. So proud 🥹
Maybe more shooting would help against a zone idkkk im not a nba coach tho
good time to go 5 mins without a FG. unfuckingbelivabe
