I don’t know any way around it. There was contact on his jump shot. He left his feet.” -via Bluesky

As the Detroit Pistons enter a new chapter with a retooled front office and fresh talent, Mahorn sees signs of real cohesion. “It seems that they have a togetherness about them,” said Mahorn. “It seems like the veteran leadership is very contagious with Tobias Harris, Malik Beasley and Tim Hardaway Jr. and then the rookies are responding with Ausar Thompson and Ron Holland.”
“You gotta credit — it starts from the top. Trajon [Langdon] did a great job coming in his first GM year to hire a guy like J.B. Bickerstaff… His record has shown. Nobody gives him that type of credit from Houston and when he took over Cleveland. He has a pedigree with his dad, Bernie Bickerstaff. I’ve known him since he was a kid. And so to see his relationship with the players is more about making sure they’re on the right page.” -via ScoopB.com
