    So I'm Watching The Pistons-Bobcats Game Tonight.....

    .....and I can't help but notice that the Pistons have some pretty decent players on their team. I would think that this should be a playoff team in the Eastern Conference without much of a problem. Am I overvaluing some of these guys, do they have lousy coaching, bad chemistry, etc.?

    They only have a couple good players.

    Management has been lacking ever since the prior owner, Bill Davidson, became sick. Things have not improved since the team was sold.

    Players don't respect the coach.

    Too raw. But Andre Drummond is kind of promising.

    U do realize no superstar wants to play in Detroit right? Therefore they can only be obtained thru draft or trades - Dumars is trying to do this but it's not easy esp when the team was frozen for the past 2 years with ownership sale - Drummond has real potential, the rest of the team is pretty much role players including Monroe

    I just think he puts up numbers b/c he's the best player on a bad team - he's like a 3rd option a good team kinda like bosh in Miami IMO - but that justs me...

    It was actually a pretty entertaining ball game. I had it on as a buffer before the Suns-Grizzlies game. Never made it to the 2nd game.
