Back in Detroit, going to take a day and then do a Pistons mailbag. Send me your questions, so I can tell you why Booker and KAT won’t be Pistons.
I asked Anthony Edwards if he considers himself a star yet. “Nah, not yet, man,” he said. “Not yet.” Unbeknownst to him, he lost the privilege to decide. On the NBA’s poster boy who can’t hide anymore: theathletic.com/5457247/2024/0…
A banger from @JLEdwardsIII on Anthony Edwards rising to stardom theathletic.com/5457247/2024/0…
NEW EPISODE OF THE DETROIT PLAYERS WITH @lazchance JUST DROPPED! Really enjoyed our conversation this week patreon.com/posts/10321444…
🙌🏽🙌🏽
Asked Anthony Edwards if he considers himself a young star yet, after saying he can't be that until he wins in playoffs: "Nah, not yet. Not yet. I can't say that yet." KAT interjects: "He's the face of the league. Like I said, future so bright have to put my glasses on."
Edwards on KAT: "First off, he wasn't in foul trouble. The motherf***** kept fouling. "If he's not in foul trouble, it's trouble for any team we play."
Edwards said the relationship with Finch at first was up and down. "When you tell me something works and I try it, and it works, I trust you. ... Ever since then ... end of my second year, we gained each other's trust."
Edwards on Finch going down: "I was mad as hell. It's not something I want to talk about."
KAT on first playoff series win: "I couldn't be happier. Getting the money of our back."
Edwards: "This man to my left (KAT), he's a mismatch problem for any team we play."
Finch: "I know it's one series win, you don't want to overblow it, but it's progress for our guys. It's the next step in the process."
Micah Nori on Finch: "They're evaluating him now. We're not sure. It's kinda like hockey, lower-body injury, right?"
The Timberwolves sweep the Suns. This trip to the second round is 20 years in the making… theathletic.com/5451689/2024/0…
My guy Micah Nori is filling in for Finch to close this one.
Finch is being helped off the floor after colliding with Conley. Suns fans clapping. What an unfortunate moment in what was a juiced up game. Super somber in here now.
Conley and him collided. Boy, I thought it was something else.

@JLEdwardsIII The fact that you never follow up by actually putting Kat in your bio is extremely disappointing
@JLEdwardsIII Those are the three I usually think of
Basketball analysis will come soon, but can you imagine playing in that game? Six guys played 40-plus minutes in *that* game. Salute. My god, what an effort, what a game.
@JLEdwardsIII James after watching Naz Reid hit a jelly layup in person 🤣
@NorthlandJack @JLEdwardsIII He didn't say in "his" first road playoff game. He just said in first, and honestly maybe he meant "on" first, but either way everyone was able to use context clues and understand what he meant except for you. He's using shorthand to Tweet a quote quickly, not writing an article.
@JLEdwardsIII @JonKrawczynski Jon is the 🐐 but you’ll do just fine covering for him. Your Pistons coverage is great!
@JLEdwardsIII @JonKrawczynski Jonny, I’m right next to him. Did you still need me to sabotage his coverage?
@JLEdwardsIII SMH. You’re younger and faster. They’ll forget about me quick
This is particularly important tonight. Suns will throw their best shot to start. They haven’t shown much of an ability to absorb a punch yet. If the Wolves throw early, they should be in good shape. (Thanks to James for covering me on the road while I tend to family at home)
Chris Finch in first road playoff game: “it’ll continue to be important that we get off to a great start, take care of the ball.”
@JLEdwardsIII @Sam_Vecenie James, this is a weekend of celebration for the city of Detroit and you’re over here reminding us we have a basketball team 😩 Great read tho, you and Sam always bring it
