Official Detroit Pistons thread

It's safe to say both Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy would have no success as coaches today.

My favorite Jeff Van Grundy moment was him holding bear hugging Alonzo Mournings ankle during that brawl. I’ve never seen anything like it

Please add SVG to that as well

I would rather have Mark Jackson than Reggie Miller as a color guy. Miller sucks balls and is the only downside to the TNT broadcast team.

How do you really feel about Miller?

lol

Fuck that fucking fuck. ;)

I know Reggie adds nothing, but I think that's preferable to whatever Jackson is doing. Truthfully, I'd rather have 87 year old Hubie Brown, he explains more about what your seeing in the modern game than Reggie Miller or Mark Jackson.

I always love when the studio crew starts making fun of how many kids Shaq has or how much money he has.

That show has such great chemistry

I haven’t been this excited about the Pistons in a long time. I liked the way they were playing when they had a complete roster and they have some decent pieces. Add Cunningham or one of the other elite pieces from this draft and they could make some serious noise in the near future.

Suns in 5 over the Bucks.
Suns win the first two games at home. Split in Milwaukee. Wrap it up in game 5 at home.
I don't think Giannis will come back until game 3 at soonest. Too late to make a difference as he probably won't be 100%.

Let's see how wrong I am in a few weeks because of some random injury...

I haven’t been this excited about the Pistons in a long time. I liked the way they were playing when they had a complete roster and they have some decent pieces. Add Cunningham or one of the other elite pieces from this draft and they could make some serious noise in the near future.

It's been a long time...
I was oddly a little excited when the Pistons signed Charlie V and Ben Gordon. TOTALLY gave Dumars the benefit of the doubt that those random players would work because he made it work before. Bought the koolaide. Oops!
Hated the Blake Griffin trade. It's been purgatory until Troy Weaver came to Detroit.

There's light at the end of the tunnel. Woohoo.

[jaadam4]

You must have been the only one with Charlie V and Gordon. I wanted to throw up watching that shit go down

[Cody_Russell]

I was probably one of the few. Definitely threw up with the Josh Smith and Blake Griffin acquisitions.
At the time of Gordon/Charlie V, had a belief that Dumars knew what he was doing. Dumars built the mid-2000s core with misfits... thought he could do it again. Gordon also had this incredible playoff game vs the Celtics before the Pistons signed him.

Was wrong about that. Those two contracts were awful.

[jaadam4]

We all knew the Blake Griffin trade was going to blow up in our face but i still had hopes it could bring some fun to Detroit. The SVG Pistons were a hodgepodge of bargain bin shit stains. Griffin brought some kind of aging hope with a ridiculous contract.
