Three very important things to help contextualize Cade. 1. He has only played 126 games. 2. Cutting Killian and starting Ivey made Cade's job a lot easier. 3. A year off and very little experience means he had to get his legs back under him.This dude is a monster and his stats next year, assuming health, are going to be mind blowing. Duren and Ivey developing with him two, it is a slow rebuild but we have a very strong young core.

All that happened is they started Ivey. Nothing else. Literally, give a naturally great playmaker like Cade even just 1 good shooter and they'll be able to space the floor off that alone.

Can’t wait for one day to see Cade around legit good or great spacing. Considering he’s been this great and efficient lately despite the poor spacing he has to work with is indication he is a future all nba guy in my opinion

Cade Cunningham always been fye yall just been sleeping on him

I believe in Cade's game, so smart, calm, West Europe skill style, mental. This is a playmaker under constrution. 😎😎😎😎

That the quality on these breakdowns never suffers despite the frequency and volume is incredible! Good stuff as always

Drives like a guard, but on the low post he's a classic forward. Plays bigger than his size. I like him, it's torture seeing him on that team.

another fun lunchtime

You have a great eye for the technical details, always progressing from the simple to the more complex, then drawing solid conclusions from that analysis. So much substance, thought, and hard work on your part. I always learn more after watching your vids. Hopefully, you can connect with a pro basketball entity (ESPN, etc.) and cash in like Ben Taylor/Thinking Basketball did with the NBA.

It helps when they finally realized to stop giving minutes to Killian and Livers who were blackholes offensively. Ivey has been solid hitting threes (except lately), and they are finally forming some chemistry which is something that they were really struggling with initially. Fontecchio has been a more two-way version of Bojan which has also helped. Stew missed a bunch of time this year too. Monty basically killed our season by wanting Killian to date his daughter. When they were on that long losing streak, you can definitely tell it was affecting them psychologically. Having won really got the monkey off their backs and they are more or less focusing on just building some chemistry now. I've been really high on Sasser too, he's kinda the perfect backup PG. If his defense gets better, he may be one of the best backup PG's in the league imo. He's incredibly poised and makes smart plays, which as a rookie is really impressive. One thing I would like to see Cade improve on is his aggressiveness, a majority of the time he has no dawg or killer instinct. He really needs it imo before we write him into top PG conversations.

I'd love to see you analyze the reason the Pistons keep losing, they're a good team in hindsight but somehow rarely wins. Alot of people say it's due to Monty's coaching/bench lineups. I really would like to see your thoughts tho!

Bro ur my new fav yt this has even helped me on the court irl thx bro!🔥

Got a bad feeling that Cade will be like kemba great but can never get to the playoffs because of team,coaching, etc

He was playing on all star as an 80 overall. Now, he's playing on HOF, but a 90 overall 😂😂😂 Cade bought some more VC and leveled up!

Great video you have keen analysis

Favourite channel rn ;)

Great vid!!

Your videos are fantastic.

Thanks for the breakdown!

I really like cade cunningham as my favorite player to play at the PG position Very good size for a 6'6 point guard i know that he is young he is already 22 years old and he will turn 23 next season and with his length and size cunningham can do basically anything a team need the big issue in his career and it's a major weakness is his 3 point shot and his turnover ratio he has to fix both of these issues if he is able to he will be a very good player for a long time. he needs to be more picky with his passes and his 3 point shooting.

Happy for Cade.

Would love it if Cade got more calls lol, it's like the whistle doesn't exist when he drives. 🙃

Great vid hv! (I haven’t watched the video)

I love Cade Cuntingham

its not him its the coaching staff

Cade Cunningham need all-star or superstar caliber teammates 😤😤😤😤

Finally settling in.

@1:00 ..thats not night and day. Virtually the same statlines. Cade has been a monster for fantasy owners all season.

Great video. Proof that you don’t have to make a lotta noise to make a good video. Just need to know what you’re talking about!

They got rid of Kiilian and inserted Jalen back. Which was the best lineup last year

Please get Cade some help. It seems like every time I check the box score he has 30pts, 6rebs and 5ast. Monty isn’t a bad coach, but he’s doing a bad job with this team. They have more talent than their record shows.

Honestly Jaden Ivey doesn’t really make sense next to him, the idea of having a jumbo pg is to have size advantages but teams put a wing on Cade a lot and allow the guard to slide to Ivey taking advantage away from Cade. Not to mention Cade and Ivey’s minutes together aren’t nearly as good as there minutes apart. Shaedon Sharpe or Benedict Mathurin would have fit better as down hill physical and athletic threats who can also take advantage of guards. Cade has his own set of weaknesses but he manages to hit that tough middy pretty consistently, sometimes it feels like he’s forced to take it because he is unable to create anything else consistently, he’s only 56.8% in the restricted area and only 42.2% in the paint (non RA) on the season. Cade is the type of guard who would thrive with a 3pt shooting center, watching and statistically you can see he has a hard time scoring past opposing teams bigs and settles for that middy a lot more than he should. He’s either going to have to get better at pullup 3s or find a pick n popper at the 5 who will space the floor for him

I think that Cade have some skills, that leader needs. Not cocky, not smartass, just humble players, never blame his team. I think he will be great

KING CADE!!!! :D

Dang, I only knew dude from the CURE Auto Insurance commercial. Never watched him play, or the Pistons in probably 15 years, but I'm a life long Metro area resident so I've been a Pistons fan since the Bad Boy days and didn't have any idea that Cade was so "nice". I'm gonna have to watch again. I've been missing great stuff all this time.

CADE NEED 2 WATCH LUKA TAPE💯

Cade is a 6’6” 225Ibs point gurad and has the potential to be the greatest pistons in their history

I like how Cade Cunningham plays 💪

MVP

The difference in those games?!!!??? Monty getting his head out of his ass and giving Cade a running mate in Ivey.

Woah no way! Being on a better team is easier? That's crazy! Pistons are very young. They are getting better and thank God they traded the elderly to New York. Cade hasn't changed much he's always been good. At the beginning of the season he was getting hammered and swarmed. Ivey is getting better at shooting, Duren is getting stronger and fontecchio has helped space too. Cade is a really good playmaker and the better the team gets the easier it's going to get.

Cade has that "old man's game" type of style to his play. He'll be able to do this late into his career. It'll be fun to watch him grow

Cade Cunningham is essentially if Luka had struggled in his first few seasons. I see the similarities, but Cade is a few levels below Luka (Luka is insane thats why). Hope he gets healthier in his future seasons and he gets better teammates.

i remember asking for this like 3 months ago lol

Watched the majority of pistons game the past 3 years and this is the first season I’d say cades been healthy. I was seeing things this year that looked far worse the past two or he just didn’t do. I love your points on his 3 ball. His arc has came back. It was very flat the past two years and I’m assuming it was from his leg injury. Once the pistons get a better roster around him we’ll see luka lite performances. I think his turnovers will get under control with other ball handlers around him and he can conserve a little stamina. He’s such a fucking dog and you can see he doesn’t want to lose. I think detroit with Cade, JD we have a great two piece punch for now.

Pistons fan here, it's truly a shame that if things don't change in the front office or coaching this off-season that these young guys will have years wasted of their career on this team. There's tons of flaws with this roster and way too much to discuss with what made this season such a disaster. People who have really paid attention to Detroit this season know that the real issue is the front office who constructed this horrible roster and the coaching who has done everything in their power to make things 10x worse than they would be otherwise. This disaster is not on the players who despite all of them having flaws (which are compounded by the coaching), have all still shown out to be promising prospects. Cade looks like he could be a legit secondary star on a playoff team (in a jaylen brown type role), as much as I like his game no team will ever win a playoff game with him in a heliocentric role. He reminds me of Michigan Native Devin booker before ironically, Monty came in to make those suns a real NBA team. Ivey's expanded his game onto the ridiculous athleticism he was advertised with coming into the league, which was hidden by Killian Hayes and now he is often stuck in the corner. Duren's major leap offensively this year has been overshadowed by his defensive regressions, I hope he will turn it around but he needs 1 of ausar or stew to help him on that end and having either there destroys the offense. Ausar is one of the most insane defensive players I've ever seen as a rookie and I sincerely hope he can put together an average jumper, him falling out of the league would be a tragedy. Isaiah Stewart is also a sneaky good role player and I'm rather excited about Quinten Grimes. There's tons to be hopeful and worried about with any of these guys, I don't think I can recall any rebuilding situation quite like it where the franchise and coaches completely fail the players they brought in. Maybe the post jordan bulls? Sorry for all the rambling, great video as usual.

Cade will be great. I’m sure of it!

Can you do a rj barret breakdown on offense and defense he been great with the raptors

As a Detroit rapper as well as Pistons fan I believe Cade can be something really nice with Ivey and Duran that's a good core💪🏾💪🏾😤

3:50 Lol Cade travelled his ass off here

I’m a piston fan so I’ll say what I’ve been witnessing, every teams mission when facing the pistons is to shut down Cade because they know his teammates aren’t a threat so the whole plan is we’re not gonna let him beat us we’re gonna making his teammates 2 of whom are sophomores and 1 is a rookie who’s not skilled offensively, I would like to see a scoring threat next to Cade and that’s when we can fully evaluate him so that means he wouldn’t be doubled on every play and we’ll see who Cade Cunningham really is.

Cade is a future ALL STAR

what do u use to edit?

is there still any possibility of them making the play in? bc that would be a great movie in about 25 years.

Great future. Hope it's with the Pistons.

You couldn’t have made a Better film study 🔥

I think Cade was just getting into game shape at the beginning of the season coming off the injury. Also Cade doesn’t seem very comfortable using his left outside of the dribble, once he gets that down he’s going to really shine.

One thing I've noticed about Cade is that he has very solid ball handling skills.

best player in the future.

He plays the game quote on quote the right way

Did scottie pippin start for the bulls when got there?! How long did it take for him to be a regular starter, and who did he have to beat out to keep it????!!!!

cade and scotty should team up

These are the type of breakdowns the big media companies need, instead of a bunch of gossip and yelling like Screaming A Smith does.

Bro just went 4/12

DO U HOOP? VENUE

Cade dat guy idgaf

do you have a speaking degree or something of the sorts? your verbal flow is one of the best for basketball youtube

cade is so tuff but his teammates are cheeks he just needs one good player with him and hes goin crazy

If you watched the games to start it was Cade vs 5 every time. No shooting and no movement period. On top of that we didn’t get any calls during the record losing streak.

I like his game. Reminds me of like a shorter PG

If he was on a team that needed guard depth, where would you want him to go?

Imagine him paired on The Wolves next to Anthony Edwards omg

DEEEETROIT BASKEEEEETBAAAAAAALL

Cade should definitely copy Luka’s homework

The problem is the ownership and front office. Our front office has been absolutely terrible the past 15 years. And that all falls on the ownership. Tom gores is by far the worst owner of any sports organization in the world. Dude has only hired bums to run our franchise he’s the most incompetent owner in all of sports. There’s also a ton of nepotism in this trash organization. Arm tellem is the vice chairman of the pistons and his son Eric tellem who has literally no experience working in a sports organization is the pistons senior director of player personnel. Our gm troy weaver hired his own son as a strategy analyst. Again no experience working within a sports organization whatsoever. The roster isn’t even that bad it’s 1000% all on the front office and ownership. SELL THE FUCKIN TEAM

He plays like the point guard version of Kawhi kinda

i would say he's more like paul pierce in his late career (brooklyn nets period). Correct me if im wrong.

Cade duran n ivey the only reason i watch the pistons once a month guaranteed lob

Amazing at times as a scorer but not a pg that makes the team around him better.

I knew cade was a good player. but didn't know he is great rn n big leader in Detroit

bomboclaat…

They need a vet pg

He should play for the spurs

Arrrrrrriiiight fight em off pistons

always thought cade was overrated

his handles and dribble look like paul george 2.0 just slower

I know to go under on him all the time

"Because his very lengthy" PAUSE

5:43 love Cade, and good finish. But pass the ball man 😂 you have 4 guys on you. He needs to get that Luka/Bron playmaker instinct, he has it some games but not most of the time

better than haliburton. end of

He's going to be an all star next season and for many seasons to come

Cade Cunningham ain’t no Luka or Magic. He can hoop and all that. His versatility, scoring ability, and court vision make him a promising star in the league. His team isn’t good at all this season because they lack winning mentality.🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀

the future american player on NBA

He gotta get outta there

He reminds me of Danny Granger

Cade is a point LeBron.

People wanna hate on cade but forget that devin booker was on a horrible sun team for years

Cade got more shooting help his game

Psalm 23:4❤

Demar with a 3pt shot and more&faster effective moves
