Chapter 2: How did the Cavaliers tie their series with the Pistons?

539.017 - 560.488 Unknown

What a weird turnover when Jalen Duren just didn't have his head up and Cade ends up... being credited or discredited with the turnover because Jalen Dern ain't ready. They try Isaiah Stewart. He couldn't score. They just needed more scores inside. And Dern's not doing it. Isaiah Stewart's not doing it. Yeah, they go to Paul Reed. But Evan Mobley has been dominating Jalen Dern, blocking his shot.

0

560.508 - 583.068 Unknown

He's literally blocked him. Now, seven times coming into this game, directly on Dern, and then had one more last night. So he's dominating that, although he's not dominating the offensive. And scoring-wise, he's doing so many things, as you said. And you're 5-by-5, just two steals away. Mobley was awesome last night. I mean, he got to 17 points. That's like his average for the season.

0

583.088 - 602.665 Unknown

It's an average game, but he was on point defensively from the very first game. quarter. He was just everywhere. And I thought that turnover with Duren where he's rolling down the lane, Cade goes for the jump pass. You know, it looks like he's taking a jumper. That just shows me Duren has zero confidence right now. Three points, one rebound, two turnovers in the second half.

0

603.106 - 621.587 Unknown

He's barely looking to score. He's got no moves. I mean, he had one post up where there was nobody around, looked really nice. But other than that, he's trying to body guys up and he's not able to push through Jared Allen right now. I thought Allen played a really good game as well for an under double digit scoring night. Like he was emphatic at the rim. He was rebounding.

0

621.707 - 625.131 Unknown

He looked tougher than Duren. And if Duren doesn't have toughness, what else is he bringing?

Chapter 3: What were Donovan Mitchell's standout moments in the game?

625.151 - 640.829 Unknown

Because he's not much of a defender right now either. So, yeah, if I was JB Bix, I wouldn't. Hesitate to go to Paul Reed if Durant's struggling. At least he's going to give you some energy on the offensive end, and kind of they need offense, I think, for the Pistons, too. Yeah, he's just not consistent.

0

640.869 - 659.297 Unknown

Jalen Durant did have one move where he broke down Mobley, and he scored on him on the dribble. One move, that's exactly how many he would have per game throughout the season. I'm always waiting for one move where he puts it on the floor, and he had that one move, but he didn't score a lot. And then you get an Osar Thompson game where you have to take him off the floor.

0

659.438 - 662.346 Unknown

That was maybe the worst game I've seen him play all season.

0

662.366 - 664.552 Isaiah Thomas

In watching a lot of pissing games. He was brutal.

0

664.752 - 680.585 Unknown

He was frustrated with the whistle he was getting early, but he was completely taken out of this game. Yeah, that was... Very bad to start Thompson. And that's not that's not going to be a good pairing when he's having a rough game. And then Jalen Dern is also having a rough game. It's like these are two guys that are not shooters by any means.

680.625 - 698.329 Unknown

So they're just getting in the way when they're having bad games like that. And to me, like, sorry, like the Pistons felt like they were attempting to, like, play basketball in a Trader Joe's aisle. There was no room. There's no room at Trader Joe's. You can't get two people by each other in those aisles. So that's true.

698.369 - 715.227 Unknown

They were just always like, just like, just like these passes that were not there. There were these like windows that were like way too small. Yeah. So many times credit to the calves, active hands, all that. But like there was times where like, what are you doing? Stop, like take the shot. There's like three or four times.

715.267 - 732.251 Unknown

Like somebody should have shot it instead of like maybe a little too cute with the extra pass that was then deflected and picked off. Max Truce had that dunk that was surprising to everybody. He had a huge dunk. I thought, okay, he's got one of those glue guy steals, right? Because it was in the backcourt of Detroit.

732.972 - 752.475 Unknown

So I had to re-watch that play, and it was just to start Thompson dropping the ball. He literally just dropped the ball. He did it twice. He had one with Harden in the first quarter as well. So 20 turnovers for the Pistons, four of them for Thompson. Tobias Harris finally cooled off, went 0-8 in the second half. Pistons only took 23 three-pointers.
