Hey Dinwiddie doesn't count, he's been serviceable this year

Still can't shoot (although he's no longer a 10% 3PT shooter, so there's that), but at least he gets solid NBA run, even if you don't consider the Nets an NBA team

I don't know how much further my support for Stan can dwindle. We don't even have a pick to tank for

This is getting ugly fast

LOL...how quickly I forgot about that. Once again making this trade look worse-and-worse. It's actually worse than my original assessment of it, which wasn't good.

My support for SVG ran out a season ago. Time for a different direction. This thing is headed nowhere for the forseeable future.

Stephen A has turned on SVG. Now it's definitely all over....

Well, we've wasted another perfectly good winter semi-paying attention to this moribund franchise. I'm frankly a little confused as to why they are even still fielding a team at this point. There are probably only a handful of actual Pistons fans left in the world, and even fewer that are still paying attention to any degree. I'm not even sure Gores is a Pistons fan.

If/when we fire SVG and blow it all up and start over....so what? Nothing is going to change. The roster is stuck, no one wants to come to Detroit, and we have zero tradeable assets. Why would anyone even want to coach this team at this point?

The Pistons should just have a raffle, and whoever wins gets to coach the team next year. What's the worst that could happen? We'd be more irrelevant than we are right now?

I wonder if they'll let SVG stay for his last year, if the rumor is true about asking him to step down from the front office but still coach, he might just exit on his own. On the other hand, he still has the "when Reggie is healthy, we're like 10 games over .500" or whatever the record is with him excuse.

It's a bummer to have the roster built for his antiquated offense, so if he does leave we'll be stuck with this crap roster and a coach not likely suited to coach it. We have a Blake/Dre/Reggie "big three" if you wanna call it that, and if we're stuck with that no matter what, we might end up with another year of Stan
