If we get Andre Drummond our offense will get better first and our defense will get better towards the middle of next season. It may take him a couple months. If we get Jared Sullinger our offense will improve immediately next year and our defense will improve after we get a good trade.  Robinson/Perry Jones, offense will improve a few months after next season starts,  will need a trade for defense. the answer just depends on if we get Anthony Davis or Andre Drummond
If we get Anthony Davis our defense will get better first. offense will take a few months.

If we get Andre Drummond our offense will get better first and our defense will get better towards the middle of next season. It may take him a couple months.

If we get Jared Sullinger our offense will improve immediately next year and our defense will improve after we get a good trade. 

Robinson/Perry Jones, offense will improve a few months after next season starts,  will need a trade for defense.

Neither is going to change without a change in the players, and since a majority of the players are signed through 2014 it could be awhile before we see some results in regards to this poll. Could a rookie or MLE signing change the identity of the team before 2015? And no, I'm not counting on a trade to do that, since there will be no trades.

I picked defense for 2 reasons: 1) Lawrence Frank. 2) Because focusing on offense has been a disaster, Joe D might go extreme the other way and start finding defense first guys.

This is a difficult question because the two are interrelated but my guess is that if the Pistons draft at 1 or 2 or pick a shot blocker at any number that the defense will turn around first and if they draft a wing or a guard that the offense will turn around first.   So I'm just not going to answer.
