Which is why they should be tanking to have the best possible chance to draft Kyrie Irving, but they won't lose enough

[Sports Collector]

The pistons need a playmaker, and on most occassions, that's not from the 4 (save Duncan/Garnett/Gasol). It's all speculation right now until we know everyones draft pick.

[gladdyontherise]

Speaking of the Pistons (not that anyone cares)

The "experts" have them drafting with their lottery pick, a PF. Yep ANOTHER PF.

Austin Daye (1st round) & Jonas Jerebko (2nd round) in the 2009-10 draft where drafted by the Pistons, Daye is a PF that can play SF if needed, Jerebko is a SF but played mostly PF his rookie season.

So what does Detroit do? in the 2010-11 draft, they get Greg Monroe, another PF. He's actually had a great rookie season, but still, he's another PF.

And the "experts" think its wise to draft a PF for the 3rd straight season?

I mean this is the Pistons depth chart right now

PG
Tracy McGrady

SG
Will Bynum (true SG that plays PG) (I count him as a true SG)
Ben Gordon
Richard Hamilton
Rodney Stuckey
Terrico White

SF
Jonas Jerebko
Tayshaun Prince

PF
Austin Daye
Jason Maxiell
Greg Monroe
DaJuan Summers
Charlie Villanueva
Chris Wilcox

C
Ben Wallace


Anyone else see a problem with this depth chart?

Congrats on winning the group..still rooting for Butler to win, but I hope Kemba puts on a show, wouldnt mind him in Detroit at all.

Sad thing is its extremely likely Uconn & Kentucky will lose their accomplishments from this season, we've already heard the issues with Uconn, but stuff is already coming out from Kentucky about illegal recruiting practices...

jsab4807 mentioned this last night, but who expected a team from the Horizon league making it to back-to-back championship games? Thats insane.

Morning. I won my group thanks to Uconn haha.

The cardinals are in the situation Dan, just hoping to get passed the Padres

Now he uses a timeout with down 10 with 30 seconds to go...

Way to go..

[Ground Support]

Why WONT SHAKA SMART call timeouts?!

Team down 6, 1 minute left, I think its time to call a timeout!!!

Calm them down.. Draw up a play. Get a good shot off.

[Ground Support]

wow...........

[Ground Support]

Shaka Smart should have called a timeout last time up the floor at the 4 minute mark.

His team looked tired, and now they are down 7..

[jratliff70]

Butler better win this game. They get a little ahead, then let them right back in it.

[jratliff70]
