    This is perfect. We will be without Blake and Reggie for most of those winnable games. Keep losing to get the better draft pick.

    Hope tonight is enough for them to let Bruce Brown start at PG while Reggie is out for a month. He at least has a path to being a decent rotation player there. He's useless at the 2.

    4-9 against this schedule seems sub-optimal

    seems like the window to rebuild and vet assets is right now. Drummond is probably at peak value. Give Blake sometime to get back to form and they actually get a legit haul from a team like Dallas or Portland

    MJ needs to take Gores out for a night on the town. Convince him to deal Dre for expirings and an eight ball.

    Beard and Edwards have started writing articles on making changes. I only point this out because both guys in the past said it wasn’t an option. Seems like Gores might finally be seeing the light.

    Of course, are any of these guys actually traceable right now?

    Wood, Galloway, and Rose have some sort of trade value. We currently have 28% chance of getting in top 4 of draft.

    Also, this is nice to read


    With a few minutes to spare during halftime, Gores addressed the media. And, for the first time in his ownership, he acknowledged that his hopes of winning at a high level may only be accomplished if the team first takes a step back.

    “We have a lot of work to do,” Gores said. “We’re not winning. The record is the record. We just have to keep plugging away.

    “We have to look at everything, because we’re not winning. If we’re not winning, you have to assess everything. Probably in the next month or so, we’re going to get together as an organization and just discuss things.”

    hopefully not watching the Pistons win many games that would change their minds.
