Stcukey finally makes double digit free throws. I'd like to see more of that out of him as the year progresses.

We clearly aren't the same offensively without Rip.

Anyway, don't complain people, this team needs to find an identity this year. We also need to give Charlie some time to get back into playing shape after missing almost all of the preseason.

They'll be alright.

Off-Topic but the front page of the Pistons site says they won the home opener

I agree with the Stuckey FT sentiment. I would also like to see Stuckey playing off the ball more. Even if he gets those minutes at the 3.

i think the bright spot is, that obviously we underestimated the thunder, obviously we can't do that again, we need the effort they showed at memphis... every night

The bright spot is that Big Ben played great.

Do ou think we can do anything to improve Stucky's horrid field goal percentage of late?

I don't know if Stuckey hitting FTs is a bright spot at all. The team still lost, and Stuckey's performance as the PG didn't deliver, even though some would argue we got the better talent. If you check out Stuck's matchup, Westbrook, 10/10 game, even though he shot something like 2 of 11. That's a real PG right there. The real bright spot was obvious, the Bens.

And if our so called amazing offense comes and goes with one player, then we're in trouble.

You guys are comedians. Judging offense on 1 game. Sure Rip helps, but you act like OKC was letting us lineup shots from outside and we just werent hitting them. The Thunder have great length and athletism with their defense. They played a great game defensively.

We could have score a lot more points if Daye and Wilcox played more imo. But to make these knee jerk reactions of a player or a team and their identity 3 days into the season does nothing but make you look bad.

A bright spot is that the other team's back up guard, Harden, played well. Going through our defense and gave good assists.

Maybe we can get someone like that instead of keeping Stuckey.
