I think the league is stacked right now so there might have been worse team in the last 10 years but I believe this is the worst team for a single season in the last 10 years! Normally I can come up with a hypothetical way to make the Pistons good (trade, free agency, new management/coaching, ect…) but I seriously see no light at the end of the tunnel other than Gores to sell the team. Even if this happens it still might take another 5-10 years. When Monty first declined the job then accepted after Gores begged him and paid him so much he couldn’t decline I knew it was over. The guy has a lot going on with his family and only took the job for the money. I can’t blame him but he didn’t believe in this team from the start and now everything is even more of a disaster than it was. I also knew that if we didn’t get the #1 overall pick it was over as well since wemby was the only guy that could potentially change the franchise. I don’t think wemby would help immediately but at least we would have hope.

    We have hope with Duren/Ausar the same way we would’ve had hope with Wemby. The '04 team had Darko Milicic (over Wade, Carmelo and Bosh) and still ended Shaq/Kobe Lakers era. All I’m saying those draft picks mean nothing if Weaver doesn’t know how to build a team.
