Sas is a clown. Detroit has one of the deepest teams in the entire NBA. We were playing with 4 out of our 5 starters and still beating teams down. ESPN has been hating on Detroit teams for decades. Keep that same energy when the pistons win.

What is he smoking? No depth? Does he even watch basketball?
Detroit has dominated all season with or without Cade.

Stephen A’s good buddy Monty Williams was in purgatory a couple of years ago, now he wants to call out us again… Stephen A already knows he will not head to Detroit unless it’s the ECF

Notice how when she said the top two teams, she said “thunder & Spurs and Celtics and Pistons”. Unconscious bias?? These ๐คกs constantly talk out of both sides of their mouths. ๐
