Every offseason move is going to look bad when you’re 4-16…
This one was always particularly baffling.

CoJo at ten minutes a night would be fine, even understandable that you want a veteran one on the team for practice and calming the team down when the young ones struggle.
This role for CoJo is just awful. And please, nobody is trading for CoJo. Nobody.
The only good thing about the Pistons being this bad is eventually even Casey will acknowledge this season is a pile steaming dung, so might as well let Saben go. Lee just seems like the kind of player who does better with extended minutes.

Even if Lee got 20 minutes a night, if he didn't take off right away and start putting up G-league numbers then the killjoys here would start calling for his head too.
Ironically these are the same people who criticize the organization for letting Middleton, Dinwiddie and Wood go only to see them hit their stride with another team, yet want to dump rookies and second year players because they haven't hit their stride yet.
Like I've posted before, it comes down to just wanting wins now. Rather than openly complain that they want wins now just because they want to see wins now and don't want to have to wait out the proper process, they mask it behind "Clearly this player is a bust."

Yep, this one was a bad one. No one was waiting to give him 5 milly per year, sucks it had to be us to watch him play meaningful minutes
Hopefully he gets a "knee contusion" sometime in the near future

Man looking at Cory Joseph raw stats they don't even look that bad shooting wise compared to the rest of the team. Just under .55ts it feels like he bricks shots more than anyone his TOs not as bad as i thought either.
Maybe we be roasting this guy to much... probably not.

Part of the problem with Cojo is that he seems to pick the most inopportune times to do something stupid. That and he constantly does something that definitely hurts the team but doesn't show up in a stat sheet--overdribbles killing the shot clock then dumps it off to someone who has to put up a bad shot in order to avoid a shot clock violation.
