Most Pro teams usually have a "wink wink" coach candidate in mind before changing coaches. Appears that Pistons have a legit search n interview process. Good for them, except it better work out this time. My preference is for a X's n O's coach who can relate to players n set good lineups. #GoPistons
I think if Ollie was being pursued by atleast one more team then Gores probably wouldn’t have an issue. Right now it just seems like Troy is trying to help out his boy
I think Ollie is someone who speaks to his players the most out of every name you can think of other than Gregg Popavich and maybe coach Spo. I mean when you listen to him talk it just screams detroit esque. We know he can develop players, we know he brings at least a winning mentality, he is a culture changer that will impact the rest of the team. I think X's and O's will come over time as he gets used to his players. I Trust in Troy's vision because the long term appeal of his choices haven't really showed me anything negative besides maybe drafting Killian. I mean why are we judging Troy on PAST GM DECISIONS? Idk that's just me I would love see what happens with Kevin Ollie as the head coach and I would give him at least 3 years before judging him. We saw how Dan Cambell panned out after his first season in the Lions and I would do the same for him.
