“Toughness”, “attitude” and “heart” can never be measured on paper, or by analytics. Basketball is art, poetry in motion propelled by the exertion of energy, working naturally in a cohesive state, based on the sheer will of the competitor.

It’s the unseen force the laws of physics must abide by. A force unmeasurable and will always dictate the outcome.

These young men Marcus and Ausar have that

[BDreGaming]

Excited for my Pistons going forward! It will be interesting to see how the new coach manages these talented players we have. Excited to see Thompson play with Cunningham

[tammiesoto]

Thankyou troy weaver. What a pick. Great find

[ChefNikuman]

You gave Detroit a bad grade because they passed on Cam Whitmore but then he fell all the way to 20. Clown reporters.

Better change that letter to an A while nobody's looking 😂😂😂

[fuhayrwookiens]

The twins gon prove everyone wrong i promise🗣🗣

[slasher.]

That dude talking I believe is the BTN dude Kendall Gill clocked.

[coldsoldier]

Is Ausar a Jalen Green clone that plays defense? Either way a win for the Pistons!!

[clarencesmith]

They parents: we got em going baaack to bacckkkk!

Ausar Thompson can jump out of the gym and he filled the stat sheet at Overtime Elite. Patience is needed for him and his brother Amen Thompson. The competition at Overtime Elite wasn't elite compared to college, international and G League levels. Trevor Ariza is my player comparison.

In Troy we trust, but not having any shooters besides Burks & Bojan really concerns me

[robbob]

Ivey and Cade are going to have to be the shooters. If they can’t shoot, then it will be a failure. They are expected to shoot well, they both have less than a year played in NBA

[artaxerxes]

looks like another 10 win season ahead

[steve]

I think both Thomson twins will be future all stars

[umoabasute]

Rockets did great Amen Thompson and Cam and Jalen Green

[slasher.]

We supposedly drafted a point guard so please stop the Killian Hayes experiment.

[planetpoog]

NBA commentators are so stale. they think there’s only true PGs, 3 & D guys (they call 85% of all prospects 3&D guys), and bigs….

[dobsr]

Good on defense and athletic..
However we need better shooters

[umoabasute]

Ausar would be better than Stanley Johnson

[joncena]

Great role player. He can break out and be his own star.

At worst I’m scared we get another Marcus morris mediocre player.
But I love his dads energy and moms support. I’m sure Monty will appreciate good vibes coming in. Let’s go Pistons!
