i had to leave this podcast the moment jeff said he feels sorry for monty Williams Bye
We need a couple bad boys on this team because besides Stewart this team is soft as Charmin! Should have gotten Steve Adams so we don't have to see teams in the layup line against us.
People always say they didn’t like Coach Casey’s rotations. Can somebody tell me what rotations Coach Casey should’ve used when he had Boggy as his first option? Ivey as his second option and Killian for his third option?
The majority of the Pistons fans thought Coach Casey was the problem and was holding the team back! Nobody made excuses for Coach Casey! Nobody called for trades to help out Coach Casey! Coach Casey made no excuses and took all of the blame! Coach Casey was able to make Killian look decent! That’s a fact
Would people still feel the same way about Troy Weaver, and the Detroit Pistons if we were able to draft Victor Wembanyama?
Why every time we get a new player and they have a little success we think that's going to continue when other teams scout i team and take away that option they're going to go back to the same way they were Mike mascala Kevin Knox I have one good game every week galinary didn't play for anybody for a reason Marcus Morris is slow every time we lose a game we start giving compliments cuz one player has good stats this is about winning it's not about one player getting enough points these are NBA players Don't pat them on the back cuz they didn't totally suck it's time to win games
Don’t know if we overrated our own players, or if the mistakes that Monty made hindered their development. Everything I’ve seen so far has pointed to Monty being the problem. Instead of leading and uplifting he’s used passive aggressive tactics to make his points publicly.
Also, totally agree with Anthony. The players still don’t know what their roles are or how many minutes they should expect to play. No team identity, and players can’t play without the fear of passive aggressive callouts during postgame pressers. We wonder why we can’t close games… nobody knows what their role is yet so we fall flat at the end of almost every game.
Wished I caught this live! Sorry for all the post mortem comments lol One last thing. Anthony was right on the money about Cade and Ivy’s role on the team. For whatever reason, Cade too often makes the wrong decisions in transition, and when he’s the primary ball handler in half court, he doesn’t see the floor well enough to hit cutters or find the open man when he drives to the hoop. It leads to turnovers especially late in games when teams tighten up their defense. I think moving Cade to SF gives up a more balanced back court while taking pressure off of Cade to be the primary ball handler in transition and in the half court.
It’s definitely Monty’s fault. Now we find out we kept killian to appease Monty. Our defense is horrible because he won’t put Asaur on the other teams best wing. Monty is landfill rubbish. The pistons had to trade livers and have meetings just to get him to stop playing the wrong people
