  1. The_Halal_Guys

    Ahhh we safe tonight can’t imagine being a basketball team in NY losing to a poverty team

    NETS REALLY LOST TO A HORNETS TEAM WITH NO LAMELO 🤣🤣🤣🤣relocate these bum frauds back to jersey

  2. anditcounts

    Let’s just agree now never to speak of this game again.

  3. CrossingYoulnStyle

    Even when we play like shit that two man game can always win us one

  4. Randle tonight showed why he’s a frustrating player and also why the team values him so much. He couldn’t have looked more disinterested in the 1H (along with the rest of the team besides Brunson) but he flipped a switch and ended up having a dominant performance. There aren’t a ton of players that have that switch.

  5. ZoidbergSaysWoop

    Hope Knicks aren’t gassed for the Raptors tomorrow.

    Raptors always give the Knicks problems.

    They should have put the Pistons away early to rest Brunson for tomorrow in the back-to-back.

    The Raptors game is a huge game.

  6. Odysseus_Lannister

    Did you guys know some guys on our team went to Villanova university?

    All jokes aside, good teams get the job done even when it’s ugly. We took care of business today and it wasn’t as comfortable as we want, but that’s why they play the game. On to Toronto where we hopefully whoop barnes’ punk ass

  7. chicken101

    In the past we would lose this game 100% on some bullshit play where Killian Hayes hit a game winner.

  8. TriviaWhiz

    Thibs pushing Randle and Brunson on the first day of the back-to-back since they had it going.

    Hopefully IQ (19 minutes) and RJ (24 minutes) will be able to pick up some slack tomorrow.

  9. Ok well we didn’t lose. Brunson and Randle were great. Uhhh idk that wasn’t fun to watch at all though really

    Did get a great Mitch story, he knocked down 2 big FT’s in the fourth, love that guy

  10. Constt-Fi

    I won’t want to talk about it tbh, this was embarrassing.

    Brunson had to go off for 42 and have the Pistons turn it over 20+ times just for us to win by single digits.

  11. beanie_mac

    Brunson with 42/6/8 on 54% shooting.

    Randle with 29/10/8 on 57% shooting.

    Brunson was absolutely incredible and Randle did a great job of complementing Brunson’s spectacular play.

    Our two top guys led us to the dub…just like it’s supposed to be.

    Edit: Shoutout to Donte for some really clutch shots in the 4th.

  12. ObiOneKenobae

    I get it was a rough one, but you can’t be crying about Randle that much when he’s 29/10/8 and we’re building leads with him on the floor.

  13. DatDudeJP7

    It’s nights like tonight that make those postgame threads in 2019, where we were collectively ready to slit each others throats debating whether or not Frank dropping 6/3 was a sign of a breakout, absolutely hilarious. God Bless Jalen Brunson.

  14. WhatIsGoingOnHere_2

    Some of yall act like the pistons just gonna roll over cuz they suck. They still a team fighting to not have the longest running losing streak in the nba. Good for them for making it tough

  15. Ilovecharli

    Jalen Brunson is the greatest athlete of all time across all sports

  16. cuteshortkid96

    This is the type of game that drives you nuts if you a Pistons fan. A rare hot shooting night and the team fumbles the bag. Reminds me of our dark ages not so long ago.

  17. pistons are bad bad. but the more embarrassing their streak gets, the more hungry they are to win. so we got the best version of themselves considering their situation.

  18. We are on the cusp of a world where teams are going to go over screens on Brunson.

  19. BeachCruisin22

    I’m still mad about Randle letting that rebound go out of bounds

  20. SanjiSasuke

    Another rough game for Randle haters, love to see it.

  21. Lovejones722

    I swear as a fan base, WE HAVE TO DO BETTER. Why aren’t players allowed to struggle?? The thing I like about Thibs is that he lets his players get themselves out of funks. Y’all killing grimes and he’s in a rough stretch right now. It’s an 82 game season and this is his 3rd year. We gotta stop calling for changes to the lineup because someone doesn’t have it. You gotta give the player the opportunity to build his confidence and bounce back.

  22. slyguy183

    I think DDV has won the starting spot over Grimes very handedly at this point

  23. kingkazuma387

    Julius and Jalen combine for 71 points in a win: 🤩

    We needed it to win by 6 against the 2-15 pistons: 🤨

  24. Diligent-Cookie-1695

    42, 6, 8. & 29, 10, 8.

    Wild stats for our guys.

  25. Could’ve used more rest for a b2b but oh well. Randle and Brunson carried hard until Dvo hit those 3s.

    Not liking our chances tbh in Toronto. Feels like a scheduled loss

  26. bloodinthegarden

    Holy shit what a terrible game.

    Brunson is a superstar.

    Grimes might end up in G League.

    IQ has zero handles and absolutely terrible court vision.

    DDV hit some nice shots.

    RJ injured or something? 24 minutes? Weird.

    Mitch is a good dude.

  27. Mr_Jersey

    They gotta make some kinda change with Grimes. He is an absolute zero right now.

    JB for God.

  28. WillyBlunts

    I’m just here to remind everyone Grimes is ass.

  29. Sk8dawg00

    Now I know y’all heard of NNN…

    But Detroit just completed NO WIN November… Congrats guys, now let’s not speak another word of this game

  30. NoScopeMusical

    – It should’ve been an easy blowout, but it’s a good win nonetheless.
    – Jalen Brunson with a 42-piece. He is the best player on the floor. He better get some damn honors this season. All-Star & All-NBA nods.
    – Orange Julius with a great showing on his birthday. RJ did his part. Donte hit four threes and played the entire fourth quarter. He’s been great whenever he’s called into action. A shrewd pickup from the front office.
    – How the Pistons remain dogshit year after year is a mystery. 16 losses in a row. And they still might get the first pick again. How the mighty have fallen
    – The Raptors (who tried to cheat us) are next. Let’s take it to them!

  31. ZoidbergSaysWoop

    Cavaliers with a trap game loss to Portland.

    Cavaliers really needed Mobley to turn into a star quickly and it hasn’t happened.

  32. nightmare_ali95

    We are going to break Jalen Brunson at this rate.

  33. JNerdGaming

    just gonna say it: its not okay that our best player has to get 18 points more than his average to win a game against possibly one of the worst teams in the league.
