Money Williams- 2023-2024 Detroit Pistons Thread

That’s what pisses me off. We were a laughing stock for damn near two months and at the end of the day not even the worst team in the league frfr

We should be above like four teams if we had this rotation most of the year, we’re healthier, and Monty wasn’t a fukking moron

Our issue hasn’t been guard related for months or at least since Hayes was ejected

Our issue has been all bench lineups and Monty coaching rotations.

Man the bold didn't fix anything like yall thought it would. Monty failed by giving up on rotations that show positive results and would be great for the long term even though it might not always equal a dub short term, and staying with rotations for too long that provide a spark. There was no median between the two. I get playing the ridiculous 1-12 at this point though in regards to talent evaluation, that's really all you can do at this point.

Grimes is a much cleaner fit next to Cade. Still think Ivey has star potential but he’s most likely piece to be moved in offseason. Players like KAT or Ingram will probably be available unless those teams go on championship runs which is not likely

Ivey and this years first should get a star in return

might as well bring Grant back.

Cade needs to worry about staying healthy for a full season. Cant count on dude for a deep playoff run right now. ONE of the top reasons he needs to be primarily off ball.

I hate Monty and weaver so much lol

I like that Monty is going with that core 5 starting lineup. Just let them have their growing pains and either mesh or fail and blow that up if it can't work.

I don't care about none of them nikkas cause they all seemed to be trash, although I did like the different look Muscala brought as a legit stretch big. But one thing is absolutely clear, Weaver, Tellem and that front office have absolutely no idea what they are doing and they and Gores got it so unimaginably wrong with the Monty coaching hire. Even with the young talent it's hard to be excited about the future with such clueless navigator "guiding" the ship.

It pissed me off when they looked the best they looked all year against Sac & Portland then immediately changed things. When the rotation is this young why play 11-12 guys per game

You can’t keep stew and Ausar AND Duren out there too long offensively imo. Fonte with the main guys instead of Ausar or stew is and has been the best lineup we’ve run this season. Staggering Cade ivy stew with the bench with shooters is so simple but no Malachi Flynn and wiseman must play or wlse

Oh is that right

Is Duren the #1 pick, let's keep the goalpost the same here

My point is Cade is still on pace for 65+ games. Given how this season went, if you told me Cade would play 65+ games shooting how he did a year after surgery idk how anybody would be mad at that.

Oh is that right

what you tryna say lol cause you know who didn’t play in either those games

False, but since you went there, I think you need to check at least one of those again . Let me find out a breh isn't watching games.

Cade has been hurt every year and that knee isn't fully right currently. All solid if he logs a full season next year.

Knee not right but since all star break he putting up 26/7/7 on 50-48-85 splits

He averaging like 23/4/7 on 45/38/85 his last 20. Besides his first ten games he’s been good. He still on track to play 65/70 games lol.
