I’m just asking if/when Troy should be on the hot seat for Detroit’s record. Yes, they are in a rebuild. Yes, they were terrible in Blake’s last years. Yes, work needed to be done to the roster. Yes, Detroit has some young talent. I’m not arguing any of that. What I’m arguing is that A) Detroit I think has the worst record in the last 4 years https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask/worst-nba-records-last-4-years (not sure if there’s a better web site for this), B) they were dead last last year, C) they are in last so far this year. I can understand their terrible record in say 2018-2020, those years were a tire-fire, but have the Pistons turned a corner, or should they have by now?
Are people generally happy with the job he has done? Are the Pistons headed in the right direction or do they need to do another rebuild after this rebuild? Are people happy with the roster Troy’s built up after 4 years?
The last two summers with $30 million in cap space each and to come away with nothing is not excusable. He made that Joe Harris deal even before free agency started. This is where Weaver has lost me. No creativity, no smart signings of vets that can actually help on the floor on prove-it deals, nothing.
And this new thing of keeping Ivey nailed to the bench is f’ing outrageous. But, that’s another story.
