This ain’t even the worst collapse in a Pistons game this playoffs.

Cade passing the ball to Jenkins and let him iso for all of the clock was bewildering

Shades of Game 6 Magic/Pistons

Pistons 🤝Wild

Choking easily winnable important games in the playoffs

We are never on the winning side of these, what a weird feeling

CTE ball

We are already dead. No need to twist the knife bro.

The refs absolutely screwed them, but the Pistons should’ve never been in that scenario in the first place.

Strus sonned Cunningham at the end. The steal was massive.

cant blame this all on the refs this time the pistons had so many bad possessions

They don’t have enough fire power. Trade for a co-star. Then sign one of Rui or Reaves and they’re cooking

Struss had Cade on lock for those finals minutes and half time. Cade has displayed some low iq basketball in this series

You thought Lavert or Jenkins were really closing it out? Game turned when the Cavs treated them and Ausar as training dummies on O

Series could’ve been Pistons on 5, but they collapsed in game 3 and tonight 💀 

That was such a disgusting choke that James Harden is like “wow so that’s what it’s like to be on the other side of one of those” lol crazy game

Not even the worst collapse in a game involving the Pistons these playoffs.

Took their foot off the gas

I tuned in and the Cavs went on a run lol

This right here probably lost the series for them

Once Dean Wade was off the floor, things opened up again for the Cavs. It was that rough stretch in the first half of the 4th with him on the floor that the Pistons went on their run.

Seriously, those 4th quarters with him on the floor are just 4v5 for the Cavs offense and he is nowhere near a good enough defender to justify that.

sometimes it feels like i’ll never be happy in my lifetime

Pistons are paper tigers

The lights were too bright for them??

now they know how the Magic felt in G6 a bit lol

Sure but let’s focus on a single inadvertent trip 

Idk man losing after being up 6 points with 30 seconds to go is quite bad

Straight up choked 

James Harden too clutch. 

Yea that was bad we got some decent looks too but no one could make it

I don’t like our chances in game 6

Pistons is still playing the same type of basketball they did in the regular season. Do you really expect a different outcome?

They aren’t winning games if they don’t know how to stop a run. 22-0 in game 4 and 13-0 in this game. They aren’t winning games if you continue play like that. They gotta learn how to stop the run and make good offensive or defensive play. If they want to win.

Maybe one day JB will learn not to challenge at best ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ calls before the 4th quarter.

Detroit learned from the best baybeeeee

When you have the chance to rip your own fans hearts out of their chest, you don’t pass it up.

All yall owe James harden an apology

Ouch

Rockets east

Being up by even 20, isn’t the same as it used to be…

As bad as we’ve been on the road, we’ve been equally good at home. Hope we can maintain

PISStons

Seeing this post right after the Minnesota Wild lose an elimination game after being up 3-0 is better comedy than anything Jimmy Fallon has done

There is all kinds of chatter about the alleged foul on Thompson by JA and very little mention of the landing area no call by Tobias Harris when Harden took a three

We don’t have shooters and we don’t get the calls to make up for it, even though we were #3 in FTA during the season.

Obviously fucked by a no call at the end of regulation but you can’t just put yourself into that position by playing so stupidly.

In Game 4 against the Knicks last year, there was also an obvious missed foul, but that same game featured the pistons missing out on two free points because they wanted to dick around for a showtime dunk and only made it after the buzzer.

Just bad mistakes that bite them in the ass so bad, they’re putting themselves into danger they can’t be in.

Hard to see them coming back from this one, especially with that Cade performance.

And the Cavs gave them plenty of opportunities to win in OT.

The Wild were up 3-0 and then 3-1 with 2 mins left. Seems like choking is in the air tonight

Duren has been non existent this series smh

The Pistons should have been on the line at the end of regulation. On the positive side, Harden has quallified for the US Olympic diving team.

The simply don’t have the offensive weapons when it comes to clutch time.

Worst collapse recently? Might not even be top 3 this playoffs

They aren’t winning the series with how the refs have been

It’s a rough final series of plays, and a definite choke job, but it doesn’t deserve the hyperbole of worst collapses in recent NBA playoff history.

No Duran

Cade it away again

Credit to the Cavs defense for being able to put enough pressure on Detroit. Otherwise Pistons would be up heading to Cleveland.

And then they weren’t.

In the 6 minute stretch from 3 minutes left in the 4th to 2 minutes left in OT Paul Reed was the only pistons player to score

Nah dude, Denver collapse after being up 20 in game 7 aginst wolves is definitely worse.

They called a timeout right before this too. Leaving themselves with only one.

Worst collapses in recent history? Probably not even top 2 this playoffs.

That’s so Nuggets- except make the lead 20 😓

2.5 min

Arguably 3rd worst in the past weeks more likely?

9 points with 3 minutes is nothing these days

Ahead by 9 points with 3 minutes to go is one of the worst collapses in recent history? Sorry but there’s been multiple chokes worse than that just this year, let alone the past couple years. Losing this at home was bad though I’ll give you that.

That’s not a big lead in today’s game

somebody’s gonna do 20 points last 3 mins istg maybe in the next 5 years

Someone please check on Kofie Yeboah

Pistons played a really poor game at the end. There’s was a lot of decisiveness, some bad passes and seriously bad shots. Hard to watch them.

they were too scared to shoot the three in the last 2 minutes. and the cavs knew it.

watch how bad the Cavs were, it’s amazing anyone won!
