2025-26 Eastern conference predictions: 1) Knicks 2) Cavs 3) Magic 4) Pistons 5) Hawks 6) Bucks 7) Celtics 8) Raptors 9) Bulls 10) Hornets 11) Pacers 12) 76ers 13) Wizards 14) Heat 15) Nets

@STlRTHEPOT @omarisankofa NBA has a clear agenda against the pistons. Investigate beasley right before FA starts, refs missing blatant calls in playoff games and awarding the other team for phantom fouls, list can go on and on

@omarisankofa Imagine inheriting a 14-win team and coaching that team to seasons of 44, then 60 wins your first 2 seasons and not winning coach of the year either year.

Mazulla received 62 1st place votes. Bickerstaff received 29. Johnson received 9 and was a distant third in total points.

@gamedaygiants @pistons_jack either kyrie or kawhi

@pistons_jack Who would you want to add? TM3, Lauri, Kyrie, Kawhi?

I’m telling you we good building around these three, improvement needed for sure, but don’t overreact to a 22, 23 & 24 year-old led squad falling short in Game 7 of the ECSF…

@jdcchap02 @UnderdogNBA are u fucking retarded the cavs are literally in the second apron u dumb fuck , ur owner paying luxury tax isn’t helping ur team retarded ass. U a lil boy with another man as ur pfp lmao pathetic piece of shit

@kd_3767 @UnderdogNBA I never said we’re blowing by the second apron dumbass. And we literally aren’t lmfao. I watch more basketball than you pussy

Cavs' offseason outlook: - Harden $42.3M player option - Wade, Ellis, Bryant, Nance all UFAs - Porter Jr. team option - Allen's 3-year, $91M extension kicks in - Mitchell, Mobley, Strus, Schroder, Merrill all under contract Cleveland had the highest team cap hit this season.

@smoothCPB @HonoluluBlues_

@HonoluluBlues_ We did it to shut LIL BRO Detroit up who we smacked in their own house 2 straight and emberrassed them in game 7 and then just to Lu crusted it we went to Fetroit and swept your choking Motor City Kitties in 4 games. We own DETROIT you imbecile. Thee dumbest fans I’ve ever met

Cavs fans did alllll that shit talking just to lose four more games🤣🤣🤣

@jdcchap02 @UnderdogNBA “The league introduced a multi-tiered system called "Aprons." If an owner blows past the luxury tax line and crosses the Second Apron, the league strips away almost all of their roster-building tools” We not in 2018 anymore u stupid lil bitch

@kd_3767 @UnderdogNBA Our owner pays the luxury tax dumbass

@jdcchap02 @UnderdogNBA

@UnderdogNBA It doesn’t matter when you have one of the richest owners in the league. Such a stupid take

@pistons_jack caris duncan sasser either stew or bball paul (i would keep stew 2 FRP’s I think this should get it done

What’s the trade look like? Genuine question

@Grantstyle3 @Pistons__Talk would this work if we add caris and give reed instead of stew?

@kd_3767 @Pistons__Talk And picks

Cade was recruiting 👀

@nbalive123 @Icewood2311 @therealwesd3 Ok and? We also should’ve won the 2nd round. Hypotheticals don’t work in the NBA. Coming back down 3-1 is one of the most difficult things u could do u can’t take that away from them lol

@kd_3767 @Icewood2311 @therealwesd3 We shoulda lost in the first round. Only reason we won is cause franz got hurt

The Pistons have 2 All-NBA caliber players, bother will be 25 years old or younger to start next season The best perimeter defender in the NBA, who just earned All-NBA 1st Team Defense & is only 23 years old And there are those who would have you believe the team is in a "difficult spot" after winning 60 games with those 3 as their core #detroitbasketball

@Icewood2311 @therealwesd3 being 1 win away from the ECF with clear roster construction flaws should give u even MORE hope about what this core is capable of achieving lmao.

@therealwesd3 This is hard to even argue with because it’s a bit dishonest. People can have their own opinions. The pistons have some massive holes and yes they won 60 games they very CLEARLY are not an actual contender. Come on man

@russ48239 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil So let the 22 year old all nba player walk, got it 👍

@kd_3767 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil Have a firm walk away number for Duren

5yr/215

@russ48239 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil Ok so what would you do if you are trajan

@kd_3767 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil I literally just showed you it’s the reverse

@7mntive @Hustel21 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil Ayton was never an all star or all nba guy lmao. Before the playoffs started everybody loved duren. I don’t understand how u let 14 bad games override the 60+ elite games he had this year. Playoffs shook him and he will figure it out just like how he figured out the reg season.

@kd_3767 @Hustel21 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil And if he doesn’t we have to attach assets to him like they did with ayton

@russ48239 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil Listen man, you have to pay guys at some point. Do you want to pay a young player that has shown upside and bet on him long term to keep your window open for 5+ years or do you want to trade that for some old star making the same money for a 1-2 year window.

@kd_3767 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil That Sengun deal knee capped Houston fwiw

@7mntive @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil he went from 11.8 ppg last year to 19.5 this year. That doesn’t give u hope that he is capable of improving? He is not a finished product by any means.

You see him shooting 45% middy and getting a tight handle at 6’10 250 and post game? Cause they clearly took away that weak ass low gather euro from the RS. And we kno he will never be a defensive anchor he just doesn’t have the feel for it so we’re betting his offense will get to a level so high he will be our second option? There is an offensive ceiling with a traditional big and wing that can’t shoot so when will they make it work? They might be young but this year 4 and 5 where is this offensive trajectory that you’re seeing?

@DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil Paying both ausar and duren 40 M is something i doubt will happen. I think duren will end up getting the sengun deal which is around 36-37 M and ausar will likely get 30-33 M’s.

@kd_3767 @KuKhahil The supporting cast; role players such as Tobias, Duncan, Stew, Jenkins, etc is only going to get harder to fill with Cade, Ausar, & Duren making $40+ million a year. Not saying our supporting cast was good this year, but good luck finding good players with that top heavy payroll

@Hustel21 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil Duren played very poorly i’m not denying that. But a lot of young players struggle in the playoffs. You have to give him the chance to come back and improve especially after he just had an all star and all nba season. You just simply can’t get rid of a 22 year old all nba player.

@kd_3767 @DETsportsfan12 @KuKhahil The only explanation I keep seeing about why Duren got exposed in playoffs is that he's just 22 yo. Sorry, that's not going to cut it, his effort completely disappears if the game doesn't go his way. These are some Ayton like issues and Ayton played better in playoffs this year
