Sad when the only reason to bump a team thread is to update players with corona virus.

My boy Christian Wood has the Coronavirus. Figures since he was guarding the germ bag himself Gobert when they played.


I wish we picked up Christian Wood. He seems like he got a nice future, I cannot believe you guys took so long deciding whether or not to keep Drummond lol. Should've traded him last year.

I wanted him gone two years ago, then we may have actually gotten a decent return for him

But yeah Wood is nice, I think resigning him has to be our top priority this offseason

Yeah, I remember someone on Reddit compared Drummond and Wood's stats this year, and the stats do not favor Drummond that well at all.

It is sad though, I really felt like Drummond just needed to improve his shot, or at least stop gambling for steals and actually play good defense. (He stopped playing it like two years ago imo.)

That Blake Griffin deal was also a big wtf lol.

Either way, I like y'alls future.

What do y'all think you guys will do with Rose? Resign him as a veteran presence? He really seems to love DET.

I like Sekou, Wood, Kennard. That's a nice young core that I think people really underrate.

Yeah if we hadn’t traded for Blake we’d be in a really good spot rn, that was the most short-sighted, desperate move I’ve seen since Boston fleeced the Nets with Pierce and Garnett

I hope we resign Rose and draft Cole Anthony (Rose 2.0)

Ew I think Cole Anthony is gonna be a bust imho.

Wood should definitely be a priority for y’all though. Should lock him up for a reasonable price before his value increases even more

They all look promising and are definitely underrated, not sure what point you are trying to make here.

No, they wont be superstars, but they could be very promising role players to pair with a superstar (if the pistons could ever get one lol)

With the way the nba is headed and continuously gets intertwined with social media and 'celebrity status' with superstars all flocking to big city teams, alot of teams like the pistons who dont have much to lure them with will never have one and be stuck in mediocrity. And even if we drafted one, he'll just bolt first chance he gets

So guys at this skill level might be all we get for a while, which is why they are exciting to us.

/e
Atleast thats my take on it, as you obviously know the nba is my least followed league lol
