    I haven't followed the Pistons too close as of late due to the boneheaded signings since our early 2000's run. I can say that I'm liking this team again though. Hate Villanueva though, wish we could give him away to a team. Knight, Monroe, and Drummond are looking good. Even this 2nd round kid, English I think, is looking good off the bench.

    Not saying there a contender, but I think they could be a player or 2 away from being a sure playoff team and could possibly sneak into the later playoffs. I don't think many people believe in this young team, but I can see a good amount of talent, we just need that star player or a couple more solid starters to surprise a lot of teams.

        Im not knocking what you guys are saying.i was just stating that for KD to be perimeter oriented so much and still manage to nab 8 rebounds its kind of good.I think his rebounding goes un noticed because he dropping 30 every night.

            I was big on him when he was coming out of high school.

            I was surprised when SDSU was the only one seriously going after him.

            Edit: Jeezus. We're making Joakin Noah look like the reincarnation of Ben Wallace out there. 5 Steals and 2 blocks so far for him. And it's still only the 3rd quarter. Le Sigh

            DEdit: Make that 3 Blocks.

              Yup rookies getting the cold shoulders from the officials so far, not surprising though.

                And the Spurs late pick drafting looking like geniuses...what's new.

                Leonard looking very, very nice. Offensively and defensively.

                    Needs to work on his dribble drive, ability to shot off the dribble and (eventually) develop some post moves. He's already a good catch-and-shoot player and finishes well inside.

                      Officials always do that.

                      Shumpert would get visibly hacked last year and the refs always swallowed their whistles.

                          Poor Rockets... getting ripped off in that trade and all.

                          Scary part is, James Harden is still getting better.

                            Yeah. I think that's what scared colleges away from him as well. His handles have always been suspect. Worse than MKG and Barnes actually (and those two can't dribble in anything other than a straight line).

                            He just need to work on his pull up. Wouldn't surprise me if he becomes another version of Luol Deng (which isn't a bad thing).

                              I liked what he did in summer league when Pop let him run the offense as a point forward.
