Pistons did yeoman’s work to come back and force overtime, but didn’t have enough answers for Atlanta in the end. Tough loss but ultimately they got into too big a hole early and gave the Hawks too much confidence. Can’t take whole halves off in this league. #DetroitBasketball

Thst might have been the single worst quarter the Pistons have played this season. Completely outplayed by the Hawks on both ends of the floor. No offensive flow, standing around on defense & watching rebounds land in front of them and go to Atlanta. Pathetic. #DetroitBasketball

I don’t know if they’re just gassed or what, but the Pistons don’t look at all like the team that just took down the Lakers Monday night. Must make some halftime adjustments if you hope to win this game. Atlanta is shooting us out of the gym right now. #DetroitBasketball

Not much you can do when Atlanta doesn’t miss much. Pistons gotta defend the three point line much better though and not allow them so much time and space to shoot so freely. Also need to do a better job cleaning the glass; we’re getting outrebounded horribly. #DetroitBasketball

Above all, there is no sense of unity on this roster in the way that the Pistons, Lions and Tigers all have. We always hear those teams talk about playing together and how their teammates are their "brothers", but we never seem to get that sense from the Wings' room. (2/2) #LGRW

Season on the line for all intents and purposes, & the Wings showed no real urgency until they were down 2 goals in the 3rd period. I’ve said this before, but this team plays a much too passive game to be successful long-term. Substantial changes are needed this offseason. #LGRW

The Red Wings’ power play needs to be completely rebuilt. Totally ineffective right now on both units. It’s just not working, at all. #LGRW

So naturally the Wings have a goal disallowed, and then proceed to give up a power play goal to Ottawa on a lucky deflection. Gotta be better than that. #LGRW

Red Wings were in control of this game up 2-1 in the third and then completely blew it. They’ve just got to learn how to close these games out. Unacceptable to let Boston take this game from you tonight. #LGRW

The Wings are starting to fall apart here in the third period. Couldn’t do a damn thing on that power play, and two weak goals now given up by Gibson to let Boston take the lead. Gotta be better at closing out these games when you have late leads, even a one-goal lead. #LGRW

Turnovers continue to be a problem for this Michigan team. Can’t be that careless with the ball. Multiple possessions now right at the end of this half you’ve just handed the ball back to Saint Louis. Got to clean that up. #GoBlue〽️

@DougAndGator971 They might be able to win a first-round series depending on the matchup, but anything beyond that would be highly unlikely. They're just not set up yet to make any kind of deep playoff run. Need to get the experience of just being there first.

Big win for the Red Wings last night over Montreal. Wings fans, do you think the Wings make the playoffs? Why or why not? And if they make it, can they make a bit of a run in the playoffs? Why or why not? Your answers will be read on the air

Michigan needs to clean up the turnovers. Getting too sloppy with the ball. Can’t keep getting trapped by those Howard double teams on the inbounds passes. Also gotta guard that three-point line a bit better. Otherwise a strong first half for the Wolverines. #GoBlue〽️

@JimCosta_ Pistons are 5-2 this season when Cade's been out, so they can win games without him. Obviously this is far from an ideal situation for him or the team, but I'm not ready to just write them off either. #DetroitBasketball

@emcwilly @cmccosky I've had the same feeling. One injury just keeps leading to another, over and over again. It's too bad cause he was so effective for us out of the pen a couple years ago, but it just feels like it's over for him at this point.

@cmccosky I’m not sure he pitches for the tigers again, to be honest.
