The Pistons are awful. They aren’t even bad with purpose right now. Lineups don’t make sense. Positions players are being put in don’t make sense. It’s just a complete and total mess.

Sometimes teams are bad. It happens. And it’s often with purpose. Spurs are also bad, but they are trying to figure out what they have. Pistons just seem to show up, do the same stuff, lose and repeat the process.

Being bad without purpose is just wasting a season.

Pistons are currently down 31 and about to lose their 15th in a row.

    You’re talking about a team with 4 centers and like 3 point guards, this isn’t surprising. They’ve just been grabbing whatever random hypothetical talent they can find (Wiseman, Bagley) and selling their cap space. I think they had pretensions of being as good as the Magic were last year considering Cade’s talent and Bojan’s vet presence/shooting, but I think the roster is just took fucked. They might just be content to tank another season tbh and hope Ausar and Ivey can use this as a development year

    Why did they give the dude a huge coaching contract? Were the pistons a team full of untapped talent that they thought he’d unlock? Nba has a the one league where I think a coach can be more of a negative than positive.

    This is probably it for Monty as a head coach. Was a nice feel good story but he is not a good coach

    Sucks for the players on that team, especially Ivey. They aren’t going to develop like they should.
