Well, ouch. Poeltl will need to step up bigly.

Ouch is right! Poeltl has got to be feeling good after last night's performance.
I wonder if Eubanks will get some run time
Watch Lonnie and demarre still not get playing time
Jesus does this team even want a winning streak
The tank hit a snag last night. Got to get it back on track.
I would like to see DeRozan playing SG with Carroll, Gay and Lyles in the frontcourt.
Right after he played physical. 34 year old is 34
Griffin and Drummond will be a lot to handle even with LMA.
Good game to sit out if you’re LMA
Nope, Rudy Gay and Lyles getting more minutes
lmao good one elnono
He almost has to.
Unless garbage time opens up a couple of minutes.
Neither Gay nor Lyles is a true center even in today's NBA. Drummond and Griffin would kill us down low.
So there is a chance Poeltl finally gets minutes he deserves. yeah.
Considering it's on the road, the Pistons are 2 games worse than their expected record and Griffin just called them out, this was probably going to be a loss anyway. Now, without Aldridge to box out, Drummond will bludgeon them and could end up with a 25-30 rebound game.
The beneficiaries here, are Poeltl and Eubanks. Metu is the only other player who can play center and he's out too.
True? They're not centers period.
Exactly. It blows my mind when I see LMA listed as PF and Lyles as C.
They did it for Duncan when he started alongside stretch fours/big wings, too. It makes a lot of veteran players feel better if they're listed down a position because of this archaic, misguided notion that the lower the position, the more skilled you're considered.
If it makes Aldridge feel better to pretend he's not the center, whatever; it's a minor concession to make to attempt to appease him. We all know he's playing it unless they start Poeltl, in which case he really get's to pretend for the first 5-6 minutes of each half.

More playing time for Metu hopefully, but it's doubtful.
Hoping he's being held out due to a trade.
Who? LA or Metu?
He failed his physical. The trade with Charlotte is off. Someone needs to start a safe space thread.
rudy gay is listed as the C here: https://www.nba.com/games/20191129/LACSAS#/boxscore.
