They didn't outbid themselves. Gores just kept adding stacks on the table until he could get a "yes".No one else was looking for Monty for a coaching gig so Detroit outbidded themselves
Salute for finessing billionaires but will instantly become the next Marc Jackson, Dwayne Casey, and Tony Dungy when they are tired of not getting over the hump and would want a wm to do it for them after the black man did the hard work of building that roster and installing a winning culture
Monty Williams to become next coach of the Detroit Pistons; largest coaching deal ever; EDIT: it’s over

Honestly for a job like this you need to get as much money as possible, dude in Houston probably would’ve gotten more money if he didn’t have that scandal in Boston
Houston, Detroit, spurs, atl, hornets, pelicans, pacers, Dallas, thunder, magic are qtough jobs with emphasis on development

Serious question. What would he need to learn aside from the natural growth that comes with experience? To me, his lesson learned from Phoenix is make sure your training staff is legit. He’s still have the job in Phoenix if it wasn’t for injuriesMonty by all accounts a stand up human being with a beautiful family, always worth celebrating a breh like that running a dumbass desperate billionaire's pockets.While still far from perfect he def leveled up majorly as a coach from his start in NOLA to his run in PHX. Hopefully he's learned even more from that time coaching an actual "contender" to make another leap, he is going to need it to find success with that Pistons roster he's inheriting.
What the hell is wrong with these NBA teams?
Is Monty gonna suit up and play again?
Yeah he can share his “generational wealth” with his white wifeWill never hate on an upstanding black man getting generational wealth
Dudes talking bout "this is a bad idea", like they're the ones paying for it
Does Monty Williams look at Weisman as a player he can use to prove the lack of development with Ayton wasn’t on him? I think Weisman may have been a small selling point.
Is he proud to have oneYeah he can share his “generational wealth” with his white wife
Let’s see who they draft….
I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded the pick for an established guy maybe one of the raptors guys (Pascal/OG).

Bro told them to kick rocks, then they backed up the Brinks truck 
I mean you have Jalen Duren, Cade Cunningam, and Ivey. It likely was a consideration. I’m more curious to see what they can do with their free agent money.
Good for Monty. There's reports that he wanted to take the year off and spend more time with his kids but it's hard to refuse that money. Last year he got a 7 million a year multi year extension from the Suns. He's still getting that money too.
In Phoenix, it was championship or bust pressure. In Detroit, he's getting Lebron Miami Heat money to win some regular season games.

Detroit gave Stan Van Gundy a similar type deal with a ownership stake a few years ago.
This is nothing new to them.

Yeah that worked out great for them also
Stan got the gm role as well which was the biggest issue. Panic man made a panic move to get Blake who only had one great year in him left. Troy Weaver has been pretty patient and ownership hasn’t made that panic move yet so the rebuild has been clearly betterYeah that worked out great for them also
