I’m beyond grateful about how deep our rotation can be, and how engaged the guys who weren’t playing are behaving inside and outside the court. Wendell Moore and Sasser are playing their roles so well now that is sad to say they will not see many minutes once Ausar and THJ are back. GREAT ROSTER BUILD… something that Troy was never able to do for 5 years!
It has actually been a wildly easy schedule, just look at who they've beaten: three tankers, a Lakers no-show, Sixers w/o Embiid and PG, Heat w/o Jimmy, and the mid-ass Hawks.
@@markwood3440 All I'm saying is we don't actually know anything yet except the things we already knew: that last year's team was a joke and Weaver was a war criminal.
@@markwood3440 That's true, but my overarching fear is they've messed everything up so bad that they're gonna end up building the Wall/Beal Wizards who never accomplished a 50-win season or ECF appearance. I hope Langdon can do better than that, but I remain dubious.
Sasser is very poised on the floor. He's got good fundementals and he can shake-n-bake a little as well. He is an NBA roster player, for sure, and valuable.
DETROIT BASKETBALL!!!! i was real worried after that first half with the foul trouble. Having a strong rotation is crucial, whether we keep Beasley in the starting or Asaur, using defensive needs on the day to day basis. options we havent had recently. Real impressed with Holland, Cade's Defense and have made crucial late game blocks, this has been fun for the first time in a LONG time.
This Pistons team is hooping right now. Hopefully they make the playoffs! Tobias Harris & Tim Hardaway Jr. were good pick ups! This team needed some vets💯👌👍
JB played sasser because thj is hurt, not a conscious effort to provide another ball hander. I think they should stagger Cade and Harris. Tek is a willing 3pt shooter while tobias would rather shoot middies.
I certainly wouldn’t move Sasser just to move him. But if we could get a PG out of it, then I’d consider. Otherwise, we might find ourselves needing another guy who can handle the ball and score.
I think because his offensive scoring ability is so good, that coaches would be willing to use the rest of the 4 players to cover up for any of his mismatches. He reminds me a lot like A.I, I just want him to play with that NOBODY CAN STOP ME mentality every time he hit the court. If I was JB I would even encourage him to try to take over the games if we need a offensive boost(instilling that belief in him and allowing him to be a go to player)
@@scottwickett1273 lol the nba and just life in general is all of opportunity and having the right people see the “potential” in you. Kobe was benched his first year only 15.5 minutes scoring 7.6 points a game, he then said an opportunity for more playing time presented itself in HIS THIRD YEAR because people were injured. What I see in Sasser is a dude with a killer instinct when he plays, an amazing ball handler, playmaker, can create space, and get to any spot on floor…all these qualities Allen Iverson had. I’m obviously going by eye test and not comparing statistics as it is only Marcus sasser’s second year in the league with him not being a primary option for scoring
@@Blackscree28 Now you're comparing ANOTHER hall of famer who was a teenager coming in (THAT'S why he was coming off the bench!) to a MUCH smaller player who was MUCH older upon arrival. Everything about you is ridiculous.
I like Ron Holland's energy, toughness, and defense. But my man can't shoot an outside shot to save his life. I think the coaching staff need to use Simone better. He just doesn't look comfortable coming off the bench.
Dude I'm sick of people being negative this team is so young will take a few years for them to get to where you want them to be ivey is thanking god that the last coach is gone for sure he reminds me of Westbrook so much
It's been unfair to sasser having to play mostly pg so far. I just want to see him in his best role, which is exactly what you said - off ball scorer. He also has to be disruptive on D, which he was the last couple games. That version of sasser is worth keeping around
14:00 Bro everyone who watches you hates when you do this shit we all know you are talking about Duren stop tiptoeing around things because you want to wait for more people to agree with you before actually saying how you feel
Hell no I wouldn't trade Sasser you have to realize them vets not going to be here long than we back at the same crap again trying to find another player close to him crazy
Ive been very critical of cade which i feel is justified! If he can cut his turnovers down and be more shot reliable in 4th he will be a dawg! Im actually seeing hope cause his numbers are crazy good 23...7....8.... nice
Ku needs to drop pregame vids along with these postgame ones, if he’s not allowed to on here then on his personal channel and some sort of content between games consistently would be nice as well
😂😂😂 while I appreciate the support, the postgame “post casts” is a new edition to Locked On where every Detroit sport Loxked On pod will have someone drop an immediate postcast afterwards. Jake is great and isn’t changing anything over here on Locked On Pistons!!
@@LockedOnPistons there’s stars emerging on this Pistons club and the work you’ve been putting in for years you’re due for incremental growth on both channels you represent. I understand how much time has to be put into my suggestions especially if you’re doing it by yourself but what I have in mind are these few things if time permits. it’d be nice to get some pregame content, a bit of a scouting report if you will on matchups and give your honest thoughts and predictions, sort of rally up us troops beforehand, maybe even come in with a live feed during halftime to give your 1st half synopsis, and I’ll use this instance to make my point, say the scenario when Pistons have those stretches of off time in between games like (tonight) Monday they play Bulls but don’t play again until Thursday, some in between game content like on Tuesday and Wednesday would be cool, it’s ALWAYS something going on to talk about or speculate so if you can’t do it on LockedonPistons maybe consider doing it on your other channel which in my opinion would be better to hear your raw and uncensored takes there, going live and posting more shorts frequently would have us up, too lit and this would be a great opportunity to get more active since potential all timer in statistical accolades Piston Cade Cunningham seemingly appears to be coming to form looking more like a star putting up triple double numbers
@@LockedOnPistons pregame videos, livestreams during some game’s halftimes, interactions with chat/comment feedback shouted out in video, content between multiple off day stretches for the Pistons, uploading YT shorts
Beasleyis only 27 and he really likes playing with Cade and Jayden and the rest of the team. Why trade him for "assets " that may or may not pan out. He has got swag and can space the floor, I hope they keep him.
@@markwood3440 Because they're never gonna build a contender if they don't capitalize on the depressingly small pile of assets they DO have in the aftermath of Weaver's disastrous reign of error.
It’s really weird. Simone should be jacking threes every chance he gets and never drive. Holland should attack and cut and never shoot threes. Both these guys playing dumb and doing what they’re not good at way too much
So true!!! That is my only gripe with the coach so far. Holland is standing in the corner for what, an attempt to provide spacing???? Same thing they did with Ausar last season. Cade hits him in that corner a lot too because, guess what, the guy guarding Holland sags and collapses on anyone that drives. Holland for some reason thinks that they made a mistake in doing that and jacks up a three, while the defense mumbles to themselves, thank you. Half of Hollands drives are a last second change of plan so he drives in out of control and misses. Whenever he looks to attack like it was the plan, he looks pretty tough to stop.
@@HakeemTheDream616I don’t mean jacking threes like bad shots. I mean if he’s open. Let it fly. He’s hesitating a bit. Holland shouldn’t even shoot them at all
@@Antonio-h7c You don't know that, because they haven't beaten anybody good: even if you think the Lakers are gonna be good this year, they no-showed and absolutely played like shit in their loss to the Pistons. We don't know anything yet.

5th in East, and 15th in NBA as of 10:38pm 😎
After being thru the darth ku days , today is a great day, let’s get to .500 tonight
Jaden Ivey ran pg this game and he thrived idk if they should experiment more with playing Cade more off ball
This is the best description for us, fans " this is a Team". Finally we have a legit NBA team!!!
This tough schedule has been a blessing 🙌🏿
It has actually been a wildly easy schedule, just look at who they've beaten: three tankers, a Lakers no-show, Sixers w/o Embiid and PG, Heat w/o Jimmy, and the mid-ass Hawks.

Gotta get to 10K!
Ku, the season is still young. Let the coaches do what they do while we fans sit back and watch the results.
This Pistons team is hooping right now. Hopefully they make the playoffs! Tobias Harris & Tim Hardaway Jr. were good pick ups! This team needed some vets💯👌👍
Tobi was a terrible hire.
For now...the HOLLAND 3 pointer should not happen at all...he is only 18...focus on what he does real well..def,transition and euro to the hole!
Techio has been doing wayy too much i want him too perfect his craft as a spot up 3 point shooter or he’s gonna end up another sadiq bey
Fact, Bruh be trying to initiate the transition offense waving off Ivey & Cade to throw up some dumb shii. I want him off the team 😂
Tech plays defense gets rebounds and plays smart he's played really well the last five games bruh. He's an elite spot up shooter.
Lets goooooooooo
Jaden Ivey through 15 games: 36.6% from 3. Thank you Jesus!
Sasser should remain a Piston even as a PG
Why? He doesn’t get assists, is streaky shooter and couldn’t defend a bingo
He can't play point guard by any stretch of the imagination.
JB played sasser because thj is hurt, not a conscious effort to provide another ball hander.
I think they should stagger Cade and Harris. Tek is a willing 3pt shooter while tobias would rather shoot middies.
Sasser is glowing
Full disclosure. I've Argued, Wolves will regress, Sixers too...and Pistons can be a ceiling top 6 team ... Since August!

Where’s the fools hating on Beasley now 😂😂😂😂😂. Been saying since day 1 he should be a starter on this team
Your argument was Beasley to start over Ivey. If that's what your still referring to, I'll object to that 10/10 time😂. I remember that
@@philosoqhywho was the sf in that scenario ?
When was the Pistons' last easy win before this?
Been over a year... Maybe 3 years...
disagree about marcus sasser. nobody wants a 6”0 sg who can’t defend anybody because he’s so small
I think because his offensive scoring ability is so good, that coaches would be willing to use the rest of the 4 players to cover up for any of his mismatches.

Why did Duren played so little minutes?
Foul trouble.
we could easily be on a 9 game winning streak, those 3 losses we coulda/shoulda won
Ausar doesn’t have the right to come in and just take anyone’s minutes
?????
I think Detroit is better than Orlando.
That is an INSANE taek.
(Seriously, go look at who the Pistons have beaten; we have learned nothing, really.)
With or without Paolo?
Idk bout all that. But the fact that it’s even a discussion shows how far we’ve come
I think they're kinda on the same level, but Magic might be slightly better. Pistons can be better in time, we have the better talent.
Only without Paolo Banchero. But Pistons do look better. If guys can stay healthy and continue to build with each other on the court, sky’s the limit.
