I think they just had a decent team that needed a LOT of NBA practice. They were young and the NBA is a huge shock in terms of how much better the players are.
Yes, I presume Bickerstaff(??) has helped. He must be better than what they had.
I’m a lifelong Pistons fan and am glad to see them competitive.
How the hell did Charlotte lose by 13 in an overtime game?! God dammit.
So Draymond Green blocks Wembanyama (no easy feat), and the latter alley oops on the former, who then gets all pissed off about it, as only Green can, and everyone has go pull them apart in yet another Green-instigated melee. When is this asshole going to be kicked out of the NBA?
I think the answer to that question has proven thus far to be a resounding NOPE!
We’re 1-12 through the first 13 games. Pretty much everybody is injured. Aaron Nesmith, Obi Toppin, Benedict Mathurin, Johnny Furphy, Quenton Jackson. Tyrese Haliburton, of course, is out for the season. TJ McConnell only recently returned from injury.
We’re running with Pascal Siakam and a bunch of role players who weren’t expected to start this year.
At least we own our own 2026 first-rounder. Who should we get?
Maybe they ate too many fajitas the night before?
Actually, this is pretty cool.
Charlotte Hornets rookie Kon Knueppel got the chance to play in his hometown of Milwaukee for the first time in his young career, and he took the idea of a homecoming game quite literally.
The first-round draft pick invited the whole Hornets team over to his family’s home a night before facing the Bucks.

No idea, but its supposed to be a really good draft.
Former Sixth Man of the Year Rodney Rogers has passed away. He was drafted by Denver in 1993 and spent 12 years in the NBA. His #54 is retired by Wake Forest.
He retired in 2005, and suffered a life-altering accident in 2008 that paralyzed him from the shoulders down.
