Betrayer Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Monty has to go. I'm so glad there are national media people like Sam talking about it. This is a masterclass in coaching terrorism. I was just shaking my head watching this game the whole time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's quite a demotion. the pistons are such a fascinating case of terribleness that people find it hard to look away. such a car crash of a franchise. and it will get better next year because the law of averages just says it will. and there is talent there. so the people in charge wont go anywhere and instead will trumpet that this was always part of the plan. well....this and all the community involvement. that's their real goal as an organization. that and making sure prisoners pay $25 per email.

NYLion Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 This franchise is doomed, I had a glimmer of hope after that nice 3 game stretch against a fully healthy Kings team, the Portland comeback and pushing the fully healthy Clippers to the brink but it's been a whole lot of WTF since then. I also had a glimmer of hope about the deadline acquisitions and Grimes can't even get on the court now. Poverty franchise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically discussing the (false) idea that you always need 4 shooters on the court. He mostly referenced a lot of JJ Redick's info, so I'll post one of JJ's pods below where he talks about this concept in reference to how Willie Green is using Zion and even how Ben Simmons was used when JJ played with him. On a previous pod he talked about this concept using some of the actions that Quin Snyder runs in Atlanta. And, of course, you've all heard me talk about how the Warriors use Draymond and Looney together with the other three guys running off-ball screens to free up shooters and otherwise bend the defense. Nobody is saying that this core has the talent level of some of those other teams, but every time you see Ausar standing in the corner and the Pistons playing 4 on 5 offense, that's on Monty. The only thing worse than his lineups are his offensive sets and lack of creativity. Monty is pure sabotage. This guy is just collecting fat paychecks, he had no interest in coaching this year until pathetic Gores begged him countless times to coach his poverty franchise so, lo and behold, he still has no interest in coaching even though he's getting paid many fat stacks to do so. Yeah the roster has obvious flaws but this coach has gotten the least out of them and even less than that. I could go down a long list of errors from his asinine rotations, to his even more asinine system, to starting Killian for however many games to dicking around Ausar and Sasser with their minutes, to benching Ivey in favor of Killian, to deploying Cade as if he's Luka Doncic to.... well, you get the idea. He's a bum and needs to go. Gores could give him his sweet buyout payment then let the door hit his ass on the way out.
