The Pistons couldn’t use to win the lottery any more than now. Well, last year would have been cool too, but I’ll stick with Monroe. Just to let go of Stuckey, move on, have a good young PG that can shoot. Man can he shoot. I know it was only a small sample but we’re talking Nash like percentages. Ugh. Hopefully whoever we end up with won’t suck. I can’t handle too many more seasons of hopelessness.

Kyrie would be the perfect type of PG to come in and help the Pistons right away. He is a pure passer, with the ability to score when needed. The only PG in the lottery who we can say that about. Sadly, it all depends on how the ping pong balls land.

Yeah, PH, that’s a pretty convincing column that he’d be a perfect fit. It would be just the shot-in-the-arm that this franchise so desperately needs (a la Grant Hill).

If we get the first pick I hope we pick Irving. Of all the guys in this years draft I think he has the best chance to be a star. All these reports talk about his offense, but they don’t mention that he’s also a good defender.

I hope Stern actually does rig these lotteries. With the team for sale this would be the year he’d give us the no. 1 pick. There’s no way he’d let the Pistons sell for less than $400M. This would ensure that doesn’t happen. only wishful thinking. I hope we get “lucky”
