@Razzzv2 @JimCosta_ Are you keeping up with the spiraling salaries and ever expanding NBA TV contracts? Reaves just signed for $46 million per year with the Lakers - you have to pay to keep your top players! Duren isn’t a finished product yet but I say pay him his money!

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@JimCosta_ I can’t imagine a rebuilt Pistons team without Stewart and Duren! My preference would have been to have patience and ride the current roster a bit longer and add a few tweaks. Every team can’t win immediately!

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@JimCosta_ Great news? Clearly, Langdon doesn’t like the current roster that just won 60 regular season games in spite of Cade missing 20+ games. I don’t think Langdon and Bickerstaff are aligned in their evaluation of the talent on the team!

@BenchHighlights Daniss Jenkins

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@JeremyOttoPxP The chemistry between Cade and Daniss Jenkins when they are on the floor together is causing problems for their opponents!

@Mikecam520 @DetroitPistons 🎯

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@RidenourDamian @DetroitPistons I fully agree with your assessment! Daniss had 14 assists to 1 turnover…incredible team performance today to clinch the #1 seed.

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@FanDuel He didn’t handle that 14-point L well at all!

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@JLambregtse Yes…you have been a bit hard on the young fella…it is hard for a young player to be consistent coming off the bench most games when you don’t know when you will get pulled. He has played well when the team has needed him most!

@MarksSincere @NBA_NewYork Which St. John’s team were you watching if DJ was the 5th best? Stop the hating and give the man his props!

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@CastrenceJoseph @Keith_Langlois One reason they lost to the Wizards is because Cade was the only PG available that game. Daniss couldn’t play because he only had one game left and they saved him for the Knicks!

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@Tigers_fan_2023 @PistonsThoughts Can Cam Thomas handle the ballhandling duties when Cade is out of the game? I know he is a bucket but I have not seen him as a floor general.

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@Mark_Travis But if he continues to deliver late in games, what is your issue?

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@laurencejn @BruceTennen They are 36-12 so I believe Bickerstaff knows a thing or two about lineups!

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@AuntEstherUgly @BruceTennen Ivey is coming off of injury and they are gradually working him back in the rotation. The experience that Jenkins has gotten this season benefits the Pistons for the next few seasons. Even if Ivey/Sasser knocks Jenkins down in the rotation, Jenkins is a gamer!

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@IH8NBAIdIoTs @michaelnoveck @BruceTennen Volatile? So now you want a PG who shows no emotion? Miss me with this thought process- Jenkins has delivered for this team all season when called upon and he takes tremendous ball handling pressure off of Cade.

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@BruceTennen The best pros don’t play great every game. Jenkins has consistently delivered for the Pistons when called upon. Even though his offense is solid, Bickerstaff has said he loves the way he can guard multiple positions on defense and that is why he is getting to play more!

[Joe Pala @joepala]

@tsnmike I vehemently disagree with his thought process. Was he comfortable that head basketball coaches at the mid to high major schools were making upwards of $3 million and several more than $7 million per year while the players were making ZERO $??? This is the new normal!
