@JLEdwardsIII If Monty were to come back, what would better collaboration with the roster look like between coaching and front office? It seemed like Weaver and Monty had zero interactions based on roster construction, usage, development, etc.
@omarisankofa This was a good read. Comps to other historically bad seasons / franchises was insightful. The Suns with Booker are another interesting one. They were the worst team in the West for several seasons after getting Booker. Partly because they whiffed on top 5 picks (Bender, Jackson)
@jack_kelly_313 I don't mind this group of 8 rotation players. The hilarious issue is we need to take on a ton of salary to get to the salary floor and only need 2 more players for a 10 man rotation. And we gave up 2 picks to get more cap space...
@PistonsThoughts The funny thing is we might struggle to hit the salary floor next season. We actually just need salary on the books unless we hand out some giant contracts
@omarisankofa Do you view Pistons in the same tier as Orlando, Indiana, Brooklyn, Chicago, Toronto, Charlotte? Vegas has us projected for way fewer wins (27), but I think our 10 man rotation is as good or better than all. We're DEEP (and versatile) for once.
@omarisankofa@Charlottean28 I feel like Black is what we want Killian to become (good defense, great passer, knows his role on O), but he’s been so frustrating that we don’t want another non-shooting, connecting guard.
@omarisankofa This is pretty embarrassing considering the circumstances - returning home after a mini road trip, the other team missing their 2 most dynamic players, and we get blown out at home? I feel like the talent discrepancy isn’t that large.. is it coaching? Prep?
@JLEdwardsIII I think the telling stat is the Pistons have only re-signed 1 1st rd draft pick since 2007 to a 2nd contract (Drummond). Not even talking max - just any contract where you want to continue to roster the player
@detnewsRodBeard That put's us at 15 roster spots, right? So that means we need to waive someone if we resigned Diallo? (J Jackson?) I assume Garza would get the 2nd two-way contract
