Could Dennis Schroder be an option at PG?

[Uncle Mxy]

The Fakers would probably want to pair Schroeder up with Drummond after Drummond's heroics in Game 6.
No thanks.

Schroder is a known douchebag. Pass.

Our new culture, same as our old winning culture (hard work, no nonsense), is a real thing to us. You don’t mess with it for an average player like Dennis.

The dude had his boys and himself beat to near death a guy at his club and he actually had a felony charge due to it. Of course due to money, he got off lightly, but there was debate he could've been deported to his native Germany

He's a ****ing headcase

[chrbal]

Ignoring all of his red flags, there are many, hes just not a good fit for Detroit next season. He would come in to play hero ball and stat pad which would hurt the development of the overall team. If this was year 3 of the rebuild and we needed a player like him, then a very minimal maybe.

Also he’s better then Saben and Frank right now, statistically. But which one do you want to get rid of to bring in Schroeder?

Harrel I wouldn’t mind, but you’d have to move Plumlee and harrel would restrict Stewart’s playing time.

Well someone has to get water for Bron and the massage gun for Davis' groin

It ain't gonna do it itself

Not comparing Schroder to Billups, other than you can't judge a player based on who he is traded for.

And I agree, Schroder is likely best suited for a Lou Williams type scoring off the bench role on a good team. I'm not sure Schroder is the guy, but he's at least someone who has some connections to Weaver and Grant and has fallen off a bit from where he likely would have been in FA so he's possible. Someone like Montrez Harrell also seems very much in play in FA as he also hasn't worked out well in LA. I'm not sure either of those guys are a good fit for the culture we're building but its certainly something Weaver needs to consider, just how he wants to use that MLE this season, or if he wants to save space for next year and look for a player or two on just one year deals.

There were extenuating circumstances as to why Billups was traded early in his career, not just for basketball reasons. If the Pistons were contenders and needed additional rotation pieces, he may be a good value pick up, but otherwise they aren't ready to bring in these type of guys yet.

[chrbal]

And not to keep harping on this, but I really think Schroeder is the point guard version of Drummond. The stats look nice, but the positive impact on the game is minimal at best.

I don’t mean off the court, purely impact on the court.

[thesack12]

On top of all of the justified reasoning for not wanting him that others have expressed in this thread, Schroder turned down an extension from the Lakers that was like 4 years/$80 mil.

I wouldn't want Dennis here for half of that price, which he obviously wouldn't take from Detroit anyways.

The Schroder idea is DOA for me. And apparently most others here as well.

[vic]

Nah, I’d rather sign & steal THT... he fits.

[Billl]

No. I don't think he fits the mold of what we are looking for at all.

I just don't understand why? These types of pickups you do when your teams is getting close, not a mile away.

Let the young talent and the upcoming #1 pick in the draft simmer for a few years, and see what they've got.

Hard no, hell no. Not the right time and in no universe is he comparable to Billups.

Bingo. Build, build some more, build some more, and then fill the remaining holes.

[Laimbeer]

Why would we be investing a big, multi-year contract into Ball or Schroder when we have Hayes? I'd think a cheaper vet on a one or two year deal. Or bring back Lee/Jackson.

[Southern Piston]

No to Schroeder, we need to spend one more letting these young kids play, next summer is the time to add veterans to bring us up a level, if we don’t get Cade or Jalen and even if we do, another lottery pick would secure us a chance at a longer run.

Agreed. I think with the Pistons taking Cade (potentially) that the Pistons don’t need to spend high on another point guard. Pistons lack talent on the depth for talent up front. Pistons need another tweener at the 4/3.
