The NBA’s Pacific Division is looking to have four championship contenders this year, but there are plenty of questions about the team building approach of each squad. There are plenty of elite players and a lot of banners in this division, but each team is also facing plenty of questions. Let’s dive in. Phoenix Suns
On the final day of the trade deadline, Troy Weaver sent combo guard Delon Wright to the Sacramento Kings for 10-year veteran Cory Joseph. At the time, it appeared the logic behind the move was to free cap space for the 2021 free agency period. However, in 19 games for the Detroit Pistons, Joseph posted
Wings win rings, baby. And the Detroit Pistons have a lot of depth at the wing this year. The Pistons’ roster is filled with youth, and the wing is full of bets at the most important position in basketball, so while no rings seem imminent, there are important building blocks in place. What makes Detroit’s
Contrary to what you may believe, Killian Hayes’ story is far from finished. It was a rough debut for the No. 7 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. Coming to the Detroit Pistons from Germany, Hayes joined the fray without the typical rookie offseason. The pandemic wiped out the Las Vegas Summer League and preseason
Hey everyone. This is Laz Jackson of Detroit Bad Boys, and on this week’s episode we’re talking about your Detroit Pistons. Ben Gulker and I talk about why we wouldn’t want Ben Simmons to be a Piston, what’s stood out about Josh Jackson’s preseason play, and winning the battle on the boards. As the preseason
What the hell happened in the Northwest division this offseason? In this post, we will take a look at each team in the division. We will answer if the team got better or worse, and we will also try to explain what the hell they are doing in 5 words or less. Let’s dive in.
Every Detroit Pistons fan is anxious to see the new team in action, see how the pieces fit together, see who’s stepped up their game, see who is gelling and who is on the outside looking in. It’s all great! In theory! In practice, this preseason has made things a bit difficult to really understanding
I imagine it is not often that a team’s leading scorer is one of the least talked about players on the roster coming into a season, but that just might be the case with Jerami Grant and the Detroit Pistons. I even find myself getting lost in conversations and Summer League breakdowns of Cade Cunningham,
Saddiq Bey had a solid rookie season last year, averaging 12 points per game on 56.7% true shooting and he is looking to take a solid step forward in his sophomore season. At 6-foot-8, Saddiq Bey has an important role to play with this young Pistons squad as a 3-and-D wing with some upside to
The Detroit Pistons wrapped up their preseason schedule with a 112-108 victory over the JV squad of the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night. That pushed Detroit’s record to 2-2 with opening night slated for Oct. 20 against the Chicago Bulls. As much as last offseason was about blowing up what Troy Weaver inherited, his second
The Detroit Pistons didn’t make many changes to the roster this offseason, but the point guard room does look significantly different. Is different better? How will the point guard rotation look? How does this unit stack up against the other units (wings and bigs) on the team? Let’s dive in. Question 1: Are the Pistons
Andre Drummond returned to Detroit as a member of the opposing team for the first time with fans in attendance, and perhaps predictably he was booed every time he touched the ball? Why was he booed? It’s hard to say. All he did in Detroit was get drafted, show himself to be the best rebounder
With both teams resting the majority of their most important players, it’s difficult to say what there is to glean from Detroit’s 112-108 win over the Philadelphia 76ers in the preseason finale at Little Caesars Arena on Friday. But in the end a win is a win, and those might be hard to come by
Atlanta Hawks Offseason in 5 words or less: Trae Young — star to superstar? Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images I’m not sure if there is any more room on the bandwagon, because it seems like the NBA world is a full believer in Trae Young, the Atlanta Hawks, and how they’re building a contending
The Detroit Pistons face off against the Philadelphia 76ers in a preseason finale tonight, but it’s more about who won’t be playing than who will be. The looming specter of Ben Simmons and Cade Cunningham haunt this game two weeks before Halloween. Of course, those are just the biggest names MIA as both squads are
Ben Simmons is unhappy. After fizzling out in the playoffs last season, the angsty Aussie was the focus of criticism from Philadelphia 76ers coach Doc Rivers and star center Joel Embiid. Simmons’ skills are unique but flawed, just like his style of play. He’s demanding a trade and a number of teams have reportedly shown
When the Detroit Pistons swapped out Mason Plumlee for Kelly Olynyk this offseason, they made a conscious decision to create more space for their young ball handlers. And if Olynyk’s time in Detroit mirrors his 27 games in Houston, it could be a consequential decision for the development of Cade Cunningham and Killian Hayes. In
The Detroit Pistons and Hamidou Diallo agreed to a two-year, $10.4 million deal this offseason. For a player like Diallo, this is as close to a “prove it” type of contract as it gets. What can we expect from Diallo? What will his role be this season? How does his role change from his limited
The Detroit Pistons have an easy win, a horrific loss, and a run-of-the-mill loss under their belt three games through the preseason. With the regular season right around the corner, a lot of NBA fans are asking themselves how their hopes and dreams of offseason fantasy are clashing with the brutal, real-world reality of actual
