Two-Big Man Lineup Shows Promise, Hamidou Diallo Forcing Detroit Pistons Hand In Offseason



The Detroit Pistons started Marvin Bagley III and James Wiseman against the Cleveland Cavaliers’ twin towers and they held their own. Did this showing bring promise to the Pistons’ ideology of starting two-bigs? Also, Hamidou Diallo has played so well this season that the 5th year player is going to be forcing some conversations to be had during the Pistons offseason heading into the NBA Draft and Free Agency.

  1. That first half was almost perfect, since wiseman has arrived our paint defense has been solid but last night our guards couldn’t hold there weight on D. Hami has really been doing well I enjoy watching him play! Hampton had a rough night but tbh I see potential in him good athlete good vision good form just needs to get some chemistry

  2. I think they need to worry about roster spots allocated to guards, bigs and wings. Of course also the cap.

    You don’t move someone to give Hami minutes. You let them fight for it.😊

  3. Great first half Cleveland jus a better team but I see wat we doing and I see wat Troy trying to do!

  4. I wouldn't move burks to give diallo a position. Burks is such a good shooter, we would be ass. But could the pistons sign and trade? Or am I tripping

  5. Wiseman is doing ok. But compare to what Bey is doing in ATL, we lost a huge scoring threat and his stats are improving in ATL.

    Hami deserves minutes so does Burk. The person that hasn't earn minutes or show they deserve minute is Killian Hayes. We keep talking about who should get minutes and who shouldnt, Hayes isn't consistent at all and he give you nothing when he is cold which is majority of the times he had a 2-3wk run where he was doing good then he fell off again. He getting close to 25-30mpg he should be producing more or we need to cut those minutes in half and give them to Burk and Hamidou. Hamidou can play wing and Guard so it does open up more minutes for a lot of the guards on this roster. Hayes is also on an expiring contract. We talking about how much Hamidou should get in Free Agency but the next year what is Killian getting not being that consistent, how much are we willing to pay a 7th pick that hasn't been consistent.

  6. If the Pistons want to be a playoff team then need Burks. You need players that can give you instant buckets off the bench. When starters come out who is going to give the team points? Also if Procida comes over and is as good as advertised he is taking a spot.
