Trade Cade
Sign me up for an episode in the fall right before the season
Bring back Dumars
We had 4 vets.. cojo, mcgreuder, Burks and bojan.
Romper Room?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣he doesn't know
Ollie
At least if it doesn't work out with Lee or Collins you can tell cade you picked them because they came from winning organizations. What's gonna be your excuse for ollie..?
I agree with Jeff – trade the pick, the fifth pick is trash no matter how you slice it
Saying Killian Hayes is above average at anything is absolutely criminal. did you watch the pistons at all last year?
Lose one more season
Burks and Bogey can ball! Plus we have approx 30 million in cap. We have enough space to find a vet or 2 in free agency without sacrificing the pick.
Not a popular opinion, but bring in Grant Williams and draft Jarace Walker
Whatever we do we gotta start winning cause we not one of teams that get lucky in the lottery
Not gone use our age look at my 2nd team OKC Thunder they just as young as we are
I would like to add a vet like McGee
Kevin Ollie would be horrible coach selection. You have to go after and experience coach at this point, due to these player are only signed for 4yr contracts, CADE has 2 yrs left on his contract, why would good players stay with losing teams with no direction.
We gotta move wisely
It's always nice to have Uncle T on the show. I've been reading his articles in Detnews since I was a kid.
See ANOTHER BAD YEAR coming for us. I usually get league pass ,but they're going have to show me SOMETHING! Then MAYBE I will spend my hard earned money on it. I have been a fan of this team ever since the Bad Boys Era. This team has got some nice young talent but NO DIRECTION AT ALL!
This dude sounds crazy. What value can the Pistons get with the 5th pick. Keep the pick. That player can be a valuable role player on a winning team. The team isn't winning a ring in the next couple of years. Young players become seasoned stars.
YES! I HEARD ONLINE TWICE NOW THAT THA' RAPTORS ARE GETTING READY TO BLOW UP THEIR TEAM, & START A REBUILD THEMSELVES!! THEREFORE IF TRU, SINCE THA' PISTONS STILL HAVE CASEY WHO WAS COTY THERE, THEY SHOULD HOP ON THA' HORN, & TRY TO MAKE A TRADE FOR PASCAL, WHOM IZ SOMEWHAT LIKE ANOTHER GIANNIS!! I WOULD OFFER THEM THAT 5TH PICK, BOGEY, KILLIAN, & 2 TO 3 SECOND ROUNDERS (NOT THIS YEAR'S THOUGH!) FOR PASCAL & THEIR 13TH PICK! IF THAT WORKZ (IN WHICH I BELIEVE IT SHOULD, AT LEAST W/O KNOWING THA' FINANCIAL PART OF IT YET)THEN NEXT, THEY SHOULD THEN HOP ON THA' HORN W/ THA' MAGIC WHOM HAVE TWO LOTTERY PICKZ, & OFFER THEM THEIR NEW 13TH PICK, & THIS YEAR'S SECOND ROUNDER (31ST PICK), FOR THERE 11TH PICK! IF THAT WORKZ IN WHICH I BELIEVE IT PROBABLY WOULD SINCE THEY ARE FINISHING UP W/ THEIR YUNG REBUILD TOO, & PROBABLY WANT AZ MANY YUNG TALENTZ RIGHT NOW AZ POSSIBLE THIS YEAR, THEN THA' PISTONS SHOULD DRAFT HENDRICKS (A 6'9 SWINGMAN S.F./P.F. WHO IZ PROBABLY THA' BEST SHOTBLOCKER IN THIS LOTTERY! AND, HAS THEE GR8 & ALMOST UNCANNY ABILITY TO STUFF HIGH-FLYERZ, IN WHICH THIS LOTTERY IZ LOADED W/!!! PLUS, HE IZ DAMN NEAR A 40% SPOT-UP 3 BALL SHOOTER AT 6'9, & A GOOD FREETHROW SHOOTER TOO! HE IZ JUST KINDA WEAK AT DEFENSIVE ROUNDING FOR SOME ODD REASON, WHICH IZ WHY I WOULD MAKE HIM THA' STARTING S.F. IF I WERE THEM, & PASCAL THA' P.F.. IF THIS WORKZ), THEN THA' STARTING LINE-UP COULD/SHOULD BE: P.G.: CADE, S.G.: IVEY, S.F.: 6'9 HENDRICKS, P.F.:PASCAL, & C.: WISEMAN/DURAN (ME PERSONALLY, I WOULD RATHER HAVE WISEMAN START, BECAUSE DURAN & STEW PLAY WELL TOGETHER! AND, I WOULD HAVE WISEMAN FOCUS ON USING THAT GR8 ATHLETICISM TO FOCUS ON IMPROVING HIS SHOTBLOCKING & OFFENSIVE REBOUNDING. IF HE TAKES THOSE COUPLE OF TASK SERIOUSLY THIS OFFSEASON, THEN I THINK THAT HE COULD BECOME ONE OF THA' TOP 5 BIGZ IN THA' LEAGUE IN A YEAR OR TWO ALL-STAR LEVEL EVEN!)! AND, RESIGN STEW! ALL OF THIS W/ BILL LAIMBEER OR MARK JACKSON AZ A DEFENSE FIRST HEAD COACH, SHOULD TURN THAT SQUAD INTO A TOP 5 FRONTLINE BY SEASON'Z END! #JUSTDOIT!
This show seemed all over the place. Talking about the team like it's trash then later saying they should be a play of team. One minute saying Weaver is going to be on the hot seat if they don't start winning without stating that this rebuild started from nothing. This team doesn't need a old veteran that's going to take up a bunch a cap space.
You guys seem to forget that it take a year for a player with hip sergery to fully heal. Killian will break out this year. If would put one of or both the Walaces on the bench and give them a free hand to teach those young boys how to play defence, that would solve a lot problems on defence. And get a young coach like the ones in the playoffs now.
Killian started off strong but when that hip started getting sore, he slowed down and tried to cover it up to stay on the court.
Cade remind me of Isaiah Thomas but taller.
Troy said this team is missing one piece. The last Piston that said that was Thomas and they let AD go and brought in Mark Aguirre and a championship. Let's trust Troy and see if we make that next jump.
This Fanbase is panicking for no reason we will be fine. We are going to roll out a better roster next year. Troy Wevaer needs to surround Cade with real players not guys like Cojo RJ Hampton and Mcgruder. Ollie Is the right Coach for this team he will change the culture and demand defense ..Ollie is a worker he fits Detroit. He brings a love and passion for the game that players will relate and adapt to.
David Wessssstttt??!!!
How about Uncle Cliff… Big Nasty… Elden Campbell?! SMH tenured hack writers smh David West
When did you want to trade out of the Pick Terry? When they had the best odds at a generational talent? That would've been lunacy
disagree players like wade,bosh,Barkley, malone etc were all 4th or higher..get vet thru FA.. your not gonna get a star vet w 5th pk.. take Whitmore and dont look back
The Detroit Pistons is ready to roll this season. Cade Cunningham and Ivey and Duren are no longer rookies and should be able to take a big leap and everyone should stop thinking we need to trade our 5th pick all we need is a small forward like Cam Whitmore, Gradey Dick, Taylor Hendrick and A new young coach and get off to a faster start winning we have a strong bench and size to match. stop underestimating Wiseman and Bagley they give us height and scoring and once the NBA preseason start find out who mesh together and the ones who don't waive or trade them
