Bey and Stewart look back to form

Bagley size and athleticism was badly needed

Cade needs another ball handler out there thats not Joseph or Hayes. He’s asked to do too much. Him turning into Luka/Harden isn’t whats best for overall team. Starting to like a Cade and Ivey pairing
I want Chet and Brunson

Yeah, neither one of them are a ideal. I'm ok with Ivey cause I think him and Cade could work. My only worry with that is the 2 wing duo led teams don't really make noise unless you talking Wade and Bron level shyt. I can't believe in saying this, but I'm getting more and more intrigued by Chet. If his body can hold up I think he could really eat. An elite shot blocking big that's mobile and can shyt and playmake too? He could be Mobley light with a better 3. I gotta check out more of Jabari. I wanna see if he's more like a Rashard Lewis type or if there's something more there. Either way Cade does need another ballhandler out there with him so he can play off ball more often?

Chet is the best player in college basketball imo

I'm starting to become a believer. And even more than that he fits perfectly and addresses a glaring need. If he can just be Gobert with 3pt range and passing ability then he's money. He doesn't have to be huge, just at least be able to add 20-25 lbs and it's a easy call for me.

Seeing how Bey kill and stew added muscle he makes sense here
Might be the first American born white boy to go number 1 in over a decade

I'm still terrified of the thought :lupe: Even though everything tells me he's exactly what we're missing. The stigma won't let me be comfortable with that kind of pick:patrice:

I’d still go Jabari Smith if Pistons get #1 again. Can’t pass on that kind of shooting at that size. Toss up between Chet and Ivey for me. Both fill a need. Chet has that unicorn potential but Ivey has Ja Morant like athleticism. And while not my favorite prospect I’d be fine with Banchero too. They just need to stay in top 4. Kinda wish FA was before draft like NFL

Curious if the local shows started talking about draft prospects. If: when y’all get the number one pick, is it a general consensus yall take Chet?

general consensus has been jabari or paolo. chet and Ivey are in that mix as well

This version of Detroit shouldnt take Chet. His frame is questionable and id rather another org waits for that to develop or be patient with if injuries become a thing. But ive come around to him overall as a prospect compared to a month ago. Hes 4th for what i think Detroit needs or should be lucky to obtain two years in a row.

I feel the same way about Chet, which is why I asked. I figured he was consensus one pick so I was hoping Deteoit would take him. I want the prototypical build In Banchero. Chet not even 200 lbs it look like. I don’t trust that pick

Hosuton already had bad luck in those long linky build with Sampson and then Yao. Plus wood is a frail game that gets bullied.
Dude not even 200
