Hell naw phil dont go to no lame cheezy workouts, thats what Brian Shaw and Chuck Person is there for to handel his dirty work while he bangs Geanie Buss with his broken back. Plus the lakers never get a good pick for him to even make a worthy trip to Chi-Town he will just pick a scrub from the summer leauge like they always do. Pistons are just going by normal procedure untill Gores has full ownership then the big broom will come out.

It would be interesting to know if any other head coaches missed it as well. I wonder if the big shots like Phil Jackson go to these.

It could be that Detroit didn’t want Kuester having to answer a zillion questions about his status,when they themselves don’t know what they’re doing.(There has been a distinct lack of talk of other coaches being “considered”.)
The bigger concern to me would be who’s running the entire Draft process? If,and it’s a huge if,the new owners want to go in another direction than Dumars,they are entrusting their first Draft to someone they don’t trust to run their team. Pre-Draft and Draft-Day trades,the Draft itself,this is a huge chunk of off-season re-tooling,and whoever’s running it had better be on the same page as the new owner’s vision of the Pistons.

Glenn, not saying it’s right, but that’s not really how it works. Coaches don’t miss key events because of a kid’s baseball game or allergies. And for most teams, it’s not up to the coach whether they want to attend. It’s part of his job.

Maybe he knew he’d be running individual workouts and didn’t think he needed to go to Chicago as well. Maybe his kid had a baseball game. Maybe he’s got allergies. We might read too far into this stuff sometimes.
