The Pistons are the better TEAM. They did win the East by 4 games. They have been at their best when facing elimination. But now, at home, they have to PLAY TO THEIR ABILITY when it matters most and refuse to blow a 9-pt lead with 2:30 left.

You would have 20 top 10s in a row and be a 10-time major champion. Only have to beat two guys!
If MI getting to a Natty (and likely winning) in year two of May’s tenure after acquiring three NBA frontcourt players last offseason isn’t enough motivation to empty the bank account on a top tier portal C this summer then I’m not sure anything ever will be.
MSU is up 14+ if they stop coughing it up. Lot of unforced. That and the bigs need to finish on the defensive glass. All the ORB so far have been on the frontcourt not checking out. Clean that shit up and let’s finish the half.
We’ve played like hot garbage and our 3PT shooting has covered it up. That’s gonna switch in the second half. So lock the f*CK in defensively and take care of the rock. Been an annoying half so far. Finish it strong.
Took it on the chin! Wisconsin was just the better team in every aspect tonight and MSU couldn’t find the stops and firepower to climb back in. Short memory on this one. UCLA in the house and Mick will play us tough. Regroup. Keep getting better.
