Detroit Pistons Summer League Schedule

[ComboGuardCity]

We’re setting up to build the bully version of the Thunder. Love this team

[SuperBad]

I know I haven’t been able to watch the Pistons in. Almost two months so I’m a little delusional; but Hollands energy and intensity on the court reminds me most of guys like Kobe and Micheal, I’m not at all saying he’s going to be anywhere near that, but that work ethic and on court intensity is there. That game showed me he’s going to get better, and will not just become just an energy player.

Having Holland "blossom at the right time" doesn't affect Ivey whatsoever.

Cade
Ivey
Holland
Ausar
Duren

Is an absolutely absurd lineup defensively, and if Holland can just shoot what Harris does from the 3(.345 last season, 36% for career)it would make it absolutely possible, and awesome offensively. Every single person on the floor, would be capable of grabbing a lob. Think about that for a second. Who gets the dunker spot???

Shortest guy on the floor would be Ivey at 6'5, and the switchability of that lineup is ridiculous.

Mwhahahahahahahahahahahaha.

I feel a disturbance in the force. Perhaps a new death star is being built...

[NYPiston]

Hard to take anything of value from SL but it can't hurt that Holland shot the lights out from three. If he can get that three up to a respectable level, that's a gamechanger for his upside. Also if he cut down on the clown tactics that would be nice, he needs to spend more time with Cade and less with Stew.

Read on Twitter

was hoping ron wouldve gotten 30+pts pass a player i saw had 29pts in summer league.

Ron reminds me of a young paul pierce! Work on all your game. Don't just be a shooter. Why limit yourself like some players? Be able to slash, create, post etc, you will get that phat bag either here or elsewhere. Im a fan Ron

I agree, but I also see a scenario where it put ivey on the bench and Ron and Asur become the switch everything wings and we shop sasser and Tobias to go out and get a floor spacing PF.

Cade / Ivey
Holland / Duncan
Asur / Caris
Trade / Klintman
Duren / Stewart

That would be one of the best wing defensive and on ball defense lineups in the league, Cade would be able to take the 3rd easiest matchup between the 1-3 position and coast defensively and focus more on offense.

C: Stewart
F: Robinson
F: Holland
G: LeVert
G: Sasser

If we go 10 deep with Sasser getting 12-13 minutes a night on average as the 10th man in the rotation, this lineup has a lot more potential with Holland hitting 33+% from deep. We'd finally have an entire 5 man unit where everyone can shoot which we haven't really put on the floor in forever.

Eventually Tobias resigns and shifts to a bench role and all five of our top five picks could start. Of course some will say that unit it too small but in reality that unit is a top 5 or 6 rebounding team in the NBA and we've seen Ausar to do great guaring everyone from Brunson to KD he's versitle enough he can defend almost any PF in the league. Only two that might give him a little trouble are Giannis and Zion with their size/strength combination.

This certainly won't happen this year, but I could see it happening the following year if Holland really continues to push his way forward. That is certainly still TBD. This season his energy off the bench will be key but eventually, assuming we can get Ivey and Duren locked up on 4 to 5 year deals... Holland might just win his way into this starting lineup. I can't see Ausar going back to the bench because I think he's a top 10 defender in this league for the next decade.

[BadMofoPimp]

Isn't Holland taller than Auser?

[Cowology]

You guys are still looking at this wrong. What we need is a stretch 5. Tobias is fine. Duren ain't it.

[catari11]

Agree with Cowology. We need a stretch 5 or better yet a stretch 4 who can be a force on defense end as well. Playoff ball invariably devolves into a half court game. that's when undersized front courts are exposed.

[tradez401]

this should be a good game reed shep vs ron holland.
