Ausar might be special. He already a penciled in starter. Ivey as sixth man should eat. Just surprised Monty did it off bat

Ivey should eat but I don’t see how Cade and Ivey as the back court has been put to the side. Their skill sets to me should compliment each other

Ausar skill set is insane. His only flaw is his jumpshot which doesn’t look that bad so far. I could see him putting up similar stats to Scottie Barnes rookie season. He just fills up stat sheet so easily. Feel for the game and physical tools will be elite. Kawhi like potential if he learns to shoot :yeshrug:

I like Stewart but he’s a bench player on a good team. Ivey gonna come off the bench chucking. I can already tell his efficiency is going to go to shyt. If Ivey bench thing doesn’t work out id ship Ivey and bogdanovic for a true stretch 4. Someone like Markkanan would be perfect on this team

Sasser definitely a microwave scorer

If they keep playing defense like this I could see them competing for 8th seed. I know its only preseason but the difference defensively is night and day compared to Casey teams.

I don't follow basketball too closely. What's going on with Ivey? I see he's benched. Is that just a preseason thing, trying shyt out or is the new coaching staff down on him?

It’s a mix of he’s very bad on defense so they giving him time to grow, he should be elite against bench defenders which helps the team overall, and it allows him to get more on ball reps while Cade plays with better defenders. I don’t think it’s a permanent situation.

Anyone want to start a new Pistons thread for this season?



Start season without two of our best shooters. More Killian :sadcam:

Think they will still be a pretty bad team. At best 30 wins. Just hopefully Cade establishes himself as all star caliber player. Duran becomes a defensive presence. Ausar could be low key ROY candidate. Other than Wemby he has clearest role of rookies.

Think Weaver swings for a superstar at some point. If Ivey can’t find a role off Cade or as sixth man I could see him as center piece to big move. Like trading for KAT or Ingram

So another #5 pick?

Not expecting us to be world beaters, we just can't be absolute ass this year.


We do need a new thread though...Going into a new season with last seasons thread just makes us SEEM like a dusty ass franchise.

I'm not creative enough with thread titles and shyt, so I'll leave that to someone with skill in that department.
