Don't blame Bynum for obvious frustration towards Kuester's ineptitude. I’m totally with you there.. Don’t blame Bynum for obvious frustration towards Kuester’s ineptitude.

I can stand the Portland loss because we competed the entire game against a good team and had one bad minute - it just happened to be the final minute of the game. But a game like this - to be up 15 in the second quarter and then lose by 15 is inexcusable. What happens that suddenly makes the players check out? Are the coaches just terrible motivators? I know we have fundamental weaknesses all over the place, but at some point it comes down to keeping the players' heads in the game. That aside, we can't guard anybody's power forwards. Any team that has a decent PF torches us. I know Josh Smith didn't start the game at PF because they went big but he played there most of the game. Our frontcourt defense is atrocious. I'm tired of Ben Gordon too. Has anybody noticed that with Rip out of the picture he hasn't gotten any better? When he occasionally does have a good we usually lose it. I hope Joe is shopping him but I'm afraid that even if he is, he has a difficult contract to move. Another bad Pistons contract - story of the state of the team right now. Just a frustrating stretch of games - all at home no less, which should have given us a chance. If we were going to make a playoff push now was the time to do it - on a home stand. I'm afraid we're bound for the lottery once again. I’m so sick of losses like this.
