Got blown out by 25 at home to the Spurs. If it wasn't for the timing of the OG Anonoby trade, we'd be looking at a 35 game losing streak.

Pistons make a trade with the Wizards.....Looks like it was mainly made just to get rid of Bagley's contract...The two players they obtain (Gallinari and Muscala) are expiring contracts and wont be here next year.....The Pistons also give up Livers and 2 second round picks....On paper an awful trade but Troy is desperate to get to that 10 win mark most likely.

Gallinari isn’t going to give you a lot night in and night out at this point, but he can still get hot and help close a game when this team is struggling. In addition to dumping Bagley’s contract, seems like they probably hope Gallinari can help them squeeze out enough wins in the close games they do have to avoid the worst record of all time. Though that may be a foregone conclusion at this point.

It's unclear because a lot of the games Ivey hasn't been playing with Cade that much. For some reason Williams has been bringing him off the bench with a 5 man bench unit. There hasn't been a lot of overlap between the two. He is playing better because he is with the starters and they had an organizational meeting last week to pressure Williams to let Ivey ball handle more. Apparently this dude watched no game tape from last year.
Some of best lineups analytically have involved both Cade and Ivey. But it's not been consistent enough to make any determination on whether there is an issue.
The Pistons' main issues are lack of bench and interior defenders issue. There might be a time when those issues are solved where and it turns out neither Cade or Ivey shoot the three well enough to coexist, but that is a long way away.
