All I know how to do is keep it a buck, man.

It was about 11.20, and I looked at the time.

I'm like, man, this shit's not going to end until maybe 12.30, man.

It's a 25-point game.

What does this say about the Pistons?

Well, the Pistons, I mean, finally, for a good half of basketball, showed up defensively in a way.

I mean, Orlando missed a lot of shots, but

I think you saw when Detroit came out in the second half, third quarter, early fourth, their level of intensity on the defensive end of the court was significantly better than it was in the first half.

What it says, and they're going to need that.

That's what they hung their hat on all year long.

That was kind of the blueprint to them being the number one seed in the Eastern Conference.

So without that, and their limitations on offense, and we talked about some of the things they have

and that they're missing from a roster perspective in terms of shot creation and supplementation offensively to Cade, like they have to be a good defensive team.

They were that in the second half.

So couple that with Orlando kind of getting funky and bogging down on their offense like they tend to do at times and guys are missing shots.

um that's the way they have to play though moving forward to be successful game seven or or you know if they were to win that um you know advancing in the playoffs as far as Orlando is concerned you fucked up like you fucked up and I and I look I'm I was sitting there and I do this all the time so it's not really fair for me to say I felt that coming but when teams hop out

and they're smoking another team that way, the way Orlando was in that first half.

And then I kind of looked at the halftime stats, and I was like – I was trying to find it.

I was trying to find where it was, and it was hard for me to find.

I was like, man, I don't think that's a good sign.
