I have Knight, Prince, Stuckey and Singler all on my fantasy team and believe it or not right now Im in 1st place out of 20 teams. What I like in watching Singler is that he can do other things to help you besides score…little things that don’t show up much in the box score. The book is long out on Bynum…undersized Jacker(see Ben Gordon, Nate Robinson, etc). they’ll win a few games a year for you….and when theyre on fire you love them…but more often than not they’ll be a minus for you. I happen to think Stuckey is the better player over Knight now…no knight may never be a legit pg. outside of knight being terribly undersized for the position….may be better to have Stuckey handling the ball more…and knight playing an undersized scoring guard for now…because that boy is no point guard. They do offer some excitement together though…if not sane basketball. Singler has the chance to be another Dunleavy…and once the Pistons trade Prince to a contender, which is bound to happen, there will be room for Stuckey, Knight AND Singler Starting together in your push for your next lottery pick.

41% from three could certainly be considered lights out shooting. Unfortunately, he also shoots twos.

Bynum is just calling out a guy who is over matched every game just about now. Who may defend ok and grab 5 rebounds a game. There is a warm spot on the bench all day long for guys who can do that. Put Singler were he belongs, is was a great switch for a week or two. Really pointless though, and until we get better guards Stuckey is the best guard on this team.

What??? Did you miss the main point not to call out you and your dad out. But Stuckey has been Knights crutch because he lacks real point point abilities. smh prowess

4 points in 33 minutes doesn’t scream “bright spot”, it screams “10 minute role player”…

Alright then, let me know when Singler is averaging 4 points in 33 minutes. In the meantime, I’ll take a total unknown who is playing like a top ten rookie as a bright spot, whether starting or not.

Also, Singler sometimes gets burned on D, but he’s been, on the whole, pretty average on that side of the ball. Very comparable to Green.

Some are talking about Knights being able to shoot out the lights but he is only shooting 40% last time i looked.Stuckey is up and down one day great and our leading scorer,the next 3 for 15,he is not consistent enough to be a starter.And Siegler hasn’t shoot well since after the first week he was inserted into the starting lineup.All 3 of these players are overrated and trade bate or 2nd unit players.Drummond should be in the starting lineup with monroe,Villaneuva is playing great because his contract is up and he is trying to impress people.When he gets a new contract i think he will go back to old charlie.The Pistons have 2 good big men to build around after that its a crap shoot,although Bynum has looked good and Maxwell is staeady.My Pistons are a long way from a finished product.

Green actually plays defense, Singler doesn’t…I wouldn’t hate on Singler so much if Frank would play him off the bench…Starting Knight/Stuckey together would make our team better, Stuckey just had a bad start of the season…I know it’s not a popularity contest, but we all know Stuckey is a better player than Singler…And Tarsier, Singler is more of an eye sore than a bright spot on our roster…4 points in 33 minutes doesn’t scream “bright spot”, it screams “10 minute role player”…

Green may be better, but it’s pretty much a 50/50 call between the two. They are very comparable players and I think you are under-attributing Green’s success to Poppovich (see how he looked on a terrible Cavs team).

I’d be fine with Singler at another position, in or out of the starting lineup. But Singler is arguably the second brightest spot on the Pistons’ season after Drummond.

Sounds like a similar situation as the front court with each player complimentin. (Masking) the other’s deficiencies. I think it’s a fine plan IF both players are here long term. Otherwise, you’ll be left with one-dimentional players that are ineI did anyone is traded or dealt away.
