The fact that we made "zero" good pick-ups this summer and folks think we've improved is mind blowing!

If we don't make the playoffs or win less games than last season, I hope Gores gives SVG the same treatment he gave Dumars!

I dont think what you've said is true even in an alternate dimension.

The Pistons obviously made good pickups this summer, and are obviously going to improve this year just due to internal growth.

Unless I've read this wrong, or Stan ran over your dog, then backed up over it again to make sure it's dead, I can't even comprehend that you think the Pistons haven't improved.

I mean, bizzaro.

Idiots is harsh, but I would say "people with absurdly contrary viewpoints".

I can understand having on argument on certain things, but some if the things I've heard are so far left, or right of center, I'm starting to think I'm on a political forum.

I wonder what happened to prince of palace? That poster just seemed to reval in the Pistons doing poorly and was just infatuated with Monroe.

I wonder how he/she feels about everyone hating him?

We can disagree in a lot of thing, I know I'm rude but that's my forum type of poster. But what I can't understand is people who always brings negative things or have a psychopathic obsession with a certain player. I don't care if you call me motherfu**er if we're arguing about something, but I can't hold up a depressive poster.

Anyone who thinks James Harden is the 4th best player in the nba is not good at analyzing the league.

Plain and simple. I did a preliminary search of past articles and whatnot and I am not impressed. It's like giving a platform to the neighbor down the street who was hit in the head with a brick and just hasn't been the same since.

You just nod, smile, and walk away.

Let's break it down one more time:

Team needs were obviously back up PG and getting a bigger, longer PF as Harris & Mook just didn't have the size to defend certain match ups.

So we added JL & Ish. In my mind that already gets us a C because we addressed both needs.

When you throw in Boban & King Henry that pushes us to at least a B as big men get PAID and we picked up 2 interesting guys for a small cost.

Anyone that thinks the off-season sucks or failed is an absolute idiot.

I can't remember the last time you were correct about anything about SVG and the Pistons.
The roster has been completely reworked and the team made the playoffs with a young roster and in that time you've disagreed with SVG and his moves. Hahahahaha keep it up.

So I decided to listen and dear god these two really dont understand the league, its players, basic understanding of the systems teams play.

I have read, and listened to a lot of so called experts over the years and when they stated the Pistons got less versatile with these moves I couldnt help but start laughing and I had to check to make sure I wasnt listening to a joke podcast. This is up there with some of the worst basketball related discussion I have ever listened to.

It is incredibly poor analysis.

Yeah it was pretty bad, they even say we signed two more centers in Leuer and Boban and how bad a contract Baynes is. They also say we should resign Tolliver instead. Just really uninformed like why make a podcast when you don't even know what the hell you're talking about.
