So from all reports the team can’t even execute a proper team revolt against their coach properly. Its kind of like how the struggle to execute plays on the floor. I guess it shows how disjointed this team really is. I mean if they were going to do this properly (revolt against Kuester) then it would of been more effective if there wasn’t enough players to play yesterdays game give Joe no choice but to can Kuester.

Pistons resolve problems (sweep them under the rug?). Hamilton and Wilcox guilty, Stuckey and Daye somewhat innocent victims. If this is the case, then it would seem players put pot on the stove, but Keuster put the lid on it and held it until it exploded and made a mess all over the kitchen. I know it would look bad to fire him now and I guess if you arent’ going to make the playoffs, tanking a game to make a statement isn’t the worst crime. But he has clearly lost the team, that’s why they are losing and something else is going on besides just Hamilton. Perhaps the best solution would be to find some excuse to void Hamilton’s contract, finish that situation and then fire Kuester.

I read the article on ESPN.com before I saw your comments on it. Your title is hilariously apt at summing up Bucher’s sources.

If you want to believe this spin, then its another perfect example of Kuester’s excellent communication skills.
