After being benched five games for Alec Burks, Killian Hayes had massively struggled to come off the bench. Hayes fought through some early misses to end the Detroit Pistons’ loss to the Boston Celtics with 17 points and nine assists. Has Hayes adjusted to his bench role, and do the Pistons have their bench duo of the future in Hayes and Saddiq Bey?

Cam Thomas Is better than Ivey. Definitely better than brick bey
I think the main reason why us fans (myself included) hyper analysis these young guys is because it’s all we have to focus on. We are a bottom feeder, cades out, so what are we watching for? To watch the young talent progress. We have a sharp eye on it and besides blaming Casey we have to put our frustrations on something.
Too much rides on Pistons drafting well this off season. Getting really lucky.
There really isn’t any free agent that I think gives pistons what they need.
They need someone with ice in their veins. Not passive. With a cocky mouth and ice in their veins. I think that sometimes is Saddiq or even Cade. But i think pistons need a star with a bit of an attitude.
Just drop it, Killian just can't be good every game that's why he's off the bench. Bey is a decision he's had 5-6 20 pt games in the last 10. I remember when SVG put Harris on the bench just bad coaching how does a bench player lead a team in scoring (2) out of 10 games. Just have to wait until Casey moves on to see who can do what.
Like I've said on more than one of your podcastthe players on this team belong. They have shown that they have the talent to make a champion level team. They are one draft pick and a decent free agent away. If we get Wembanyama i honestly believe that we'll be in the finals in three years. We'll have one of the best back court one of the best front court and the best bench. A ton of cap space. I don't care if we lose every game the rest of the season I'm be happy.
Prime Dwight Howard averaged 20 and 12+ easy. idk if he’ll reach Jokic/Embiid status because of who he plays with, but i truly believe Jalen Duren can average that VERY soon. AND he might have a jumpshot soon. we blessed to have this kid on our team.
I'm betting ku calls Isaiah Stewart's shooting putrid in this podcast lol that should be a bet on prize picks 😂 🤣 😆
I love watching duren play. I wish I could peak into his future to see what he becomes instead of waiting lol. He's got skills that we haven't even seen yet. I'm impressed 👏
I am not sure i'm yet willing to say that Duren has a crazy ceiling, but clearly his floor is pretty high. Very solid pick
Imagine being fans and trying to find any good of this dead franchise clinging on to hopes to find high draft picks. Sad life to live
Duren could be our best player. He needs more shot attempts.
Our bench should be bagley at C,livers PF,bey SF or vice versa wit livers burks at SG hayes PG if bagley gets healthy
If ivey hit 80 to 85%of his ft he will average 17 to 19points a game as a rookie thats Cunningham territory
