In the last four games, the current Pistons starting lineup with Cade, Ivey, Ausar, Stew, and Duren has posted:

124.5 Offensive Rating 112.7 Defensive Rating +11.8 Net Rating

Despite these solid numbers, the Pistons have lost by an average differential of 18.75 points per game in the last 4 matches.

They aren’t the issue!

    Either Ausar or Ivey need to move to the bench when Bogy or Morris returns, a team this young CAN NOT compete with NBA players, tiny mistakes can derail an entire quarter.

    injuries aren’t helping but neither are monty’s full team substitutions

    Bojan needs to get his ass on the court so we can evaluate properly.

    this will probably get downvoted, and as much as i like stew as a culture, hustle etc type of guy i don’t believe there is room on the team for him, for as long as bagley is here.

    cade | ivey | ausar | bagley | duren

    in reality bagley is the bench 4/5 rotation guy if this team had a good 4 - maybe we’ll find ausar can be a 4 once bojan is back. but for now, start bagley. let stew bring energy off the bench like he’s destined to do. because when that bench unit comes on, it’s ROUGH to watch - no energy or cohesion (also i hate the full team shift shit)

    bagley allows for some/enough spacing and isn’t totally incompetent on defense. i think stew gets touted as a good defender because of his motor when in reality he’s undersized and has the hands of lions great eric ebron. ausar gaurds the best player. duren gaurds the best big. cade third best, ivey smallest. bagley remainder.
