In particular, Stuckey and Daye have really struggled with their shots. But I'd much rather 18 wins than 24. The Pistons should be playing for three things right now: development of young players, establishment of trade value, and lots of ping pong balls. It’s true that they’ve played worse than they are.

The6y'll probably get just about the same this season winning 24 games or so.

They're certainly the worst team I've witnessed in my lifetime. Despite they're ineptitude, they're still more interesting than last year's group. Can’t say I’m surprised by this.
