@T MC….you are ignorant. It was obvious to anyone watching before the report that something was wrong with Stuckey and while I’m not eager to add to the criticism against Frank–it was his responsibility and not Stuckey’s to sit him or realize he wasn’t going to able to play through the problem and yank him. Stuckey was holding his head and plugging his ears during every breakage in play so he wasn’t trying to hide anything and the coaches had to know. And hall of fame players like Scottie Pippen (in a decisive playoff game!) and Kareem have been unable to deal with migraine’s before so it’s not a weak excuse that is exclusive to Stuckey.
@Bigmarv–maybe Stuckey’s migraine was 10 times more severe than Wade’s.,….how the hell would you know?

Tell Stucky to call Scotty Pippen, he seemed to developed those when the Pistons were kicking the Bulls A$$. Stucky was like that at the end of last year, who knows what is going on in his life, but if he is not able to play a decent game on the floor, he should take himself out until he is felling well enough to play.

Well, by 30 win I don’t mean they’re going to win exactly 30. I agree with your range, tarsier. I think their best case would be 40-41, and that’s if absolutely everything goes right.

But the fact is, they’re still a likely lottery team, and right now people are all having to be talked off the ledge in the comments here because they raised their expectations for the team way too high with all of that playoff talk that came out. This team has never been a likely playoff team, but I’ve read comments all summer and preseason from people who think they are.

Wow, I actually agree with Jodi Jezz on something. I too think the Pistons will win over 30 games. i am guessing 30-35. But anything from 25-40 would be unsurprising.

Maybe if Rodney took his fingers out of his ears when making bad plays to not hear Frank would help…

Anyone else see that loser do that last night after throwing the bad pass to Knight? He acted like a 2 year old saying lay lay I can’t hear you.

I’ve been saying this guy is a joke for 3 or 4 years now. When are we going to end this experiment?

Jodi Jezz is right. Nets are over the cap, so the Pistons would have to take back contracts. And I don’t know why they’d get rid of a young, cheap, improving player like Brooks anyway for an expensive guard who would not play a lot behind Johnson/Williams.

Sounds good, but I don’t think the Nets could afford Stuckey…

My Pistons are going to prove you guys wrong(especially Chad Ford’s bf)…I still think we’ll win over 30 games this season…Monroe and Drummond just need to get some quality time together, and Stuckey needs to get healthy…We’ll be OK…
