It's so weird.
I don't think it's, I'm saying anything profound here, but I think people seeing it play out makes you wonder how this series could go.
The Pistons punk a lot of teams.
I think we all, as people who have watched Orlando, knew that Orlando may stink.
They might miss every shot they take.
They're not going to get physically punked.
And the fact that they played two good games going into the first round of the playoff or two games like they got to get the rust off and high pressure situations as the Pistons wait to find out who they play one and then a day and a half later play Orlando.
it's that's not the type of team that i would want to play uh when you have no when you're still lacking in playoff experience like detroit is and uh orlando's ability to just be physical with them and to me that really showed itself but yeah the physicality that orlando plays with detroit's not going to shy away from that and i have thoughts on that series i
There's some stuff I want to see Detroit do differently just as an observer.
I think it would make life pretty easy for them.
But, yeah, I mean, Orlando has talented players.
It's just can they make shots?
Can the offense look fluid?
And, again, Paulo seems to rise in the playoffs too.
I know we all give Paulo a lot of crap, but he's been pretty good in his –
few postseason experiences.
Yeah.
No, that's a serious question, and it's – you can't play 11 guys in the playoffs.
The whole thing with Asar not closing, every – and I'm not the biggest advanced stats guy, but I factor it into all – I consider it strongly.
All of the offensive numbers suggest that they're better when Asar is on the floor, but yet JB doesn't do it.
