Heaven, oh!!, this isn't it?!
Checked their schedule and its no different than anybody elses :violin: . Injuries? What injuries? Did they just decide to take a midseason vacation :scared . Losing to the Hawks as a 10 point dog, wtf?

I think they're just a little complacent. They have been beating good teams, but it seems like they take nights off versus some of the bottom dwellers. 3 of their 8 losses have been to the Paces, Wiz, and Hawks. Those teams aren't exactly world beaters.

Its all season fatigue in my eyes.

AFter working so hard for half of the season, all the starters playing 34 min +, it is finally catching up to them.

I am glad they are losing.... but not alst night as I lost my ML parlays

Agree with SpursDynasty

Pistons have been pushing so strong and winning so many games b/c that fab five clocks so many minutes

Flip will start to gear things down... they know its a marathon... so a loss to the hawks in early february means nothing to them since they are a runaway for homecourt

They got a pretty good bench... if they can get regular minutes then they'll heat right back up

Exactly. Did anyone really think they could continue at the pace they were on up until a week ago? The Pistons will be fine, it simply has been their turn to slump a bit.

I was drinking and ranting about them all night long last night. I do think they are fatigue and that contributes to not playing great, but I also think they are not as dominant as their run would indicate.

Went to the game last night, I saw the scripts passed out to the players. Some of the script was blacked out, but noticed Coretta King's name on it.
