Pistons had 4 years of tanking and still bottom of the East. They are 2-15 this season on a 14 game losing run and haven’t even reach double wins in 2023 with one month left in the calender. They might not even win 10 games this season. What can the Pistons do to get out of this rut?
When Beef Stew is your best floor spacer you’re not going to win very many games.
If in year 4 of a rebuild you’re the worst team in the league the rebuild failed
Easier question is what isn’t wrong with the Pistons. It’s really sad what the owner and front office have reduced this one proud franchise to.
No vets and no shooters around Cade.
- Didn’t keep Bey
- Didn’t draft Whitmore
- Didn’t bring McGee home
- Didn’t re-sign Diallo and McGruder for that roster depth re injury, and add vets like Nunn and Barton.
- Didn’t choose coach Fleming
Imo, they didn’t draft the right players to build around Cade.
Now they are at a point where they are questioning if they SHOULD build around Cade. But did they ever give it a fair shot?
Not sure what the answer is. I will say that I thought Ausar was their best player last night, before he was inexplicably benched.
exactly this is what can happen when you just draft the best player available every year instead of drafting for fit
