When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Plumlee is just getting absolutely killed out there.

This is a great time to mention my very favorite pasttime, which is going onto the Pistons subreddit and posting literally any critique of Cade Cunninham whatsoever, such as "drat, his box +/- was -22 this game" or "He sure seems to have lower eFG% than every other starting point guard in the league" and seeing how many downvotes I can get

Oh I forgot Kings just went 5-2 on the road, first game back is always a loss. Factor in that Detroit are very bad and missing their best player, automatic Kangz loss

Or maybe, Richard Jefferson, the Pelicans are a good basketball team. Has that thought occurred?

people seem to have all kinds of contradicting expectations and opinions on this team. they are a top team! but none of their players really dominate... They have everything they need! They lack rebounding when Jonas isn't out there. etc.

Yeah they just don't get the benefit of the doubt from the big media that a lot of teams get.

They haven't won a series in the playoffs, yet. The season after they went to the playoffs, they did get some benefit of the doubt. But then they kept disappointing over and over and over, mostly because of injuries. No one trusts them. Look at how they have have gotten fewer and fewer national tv games even as the team has consistently improved their record.

I don't even really blame them that much. The team has been inconsistent on a night-to-night basis the last few seasons because their health has always been up and down. It takes too much time and effort for big media to learn and understand a team like that.

It is nice to not hear that big media just openly poo poo on the team or speculate about the city losing them or where their big stars will be traded to, etc. That has thankfully not been a thing this season like it has been in nearly every season the last 20 years. That kind of thing was exhausting and defeating.

e: i guess there was a little bit of that after the IST showing, but that was only for like a month instead of all season like i'm used to

Sheesh after having really only watched the Pels play the Kings this season I’m convinced they’re the best team in the the league

If you don’t have multiple ball handlers or lack a giant ball handler, the Pels will often blow you out. If you are a strong rebounding team, you stand a good chance against them.

There are also games where they just plain try to go 1v1 and dribble too much. That usually results in losses. They shine when playing off each other and when Ingram is making 3s.

They are still learning how to play with each other and that open 3s are better than open middies.
