Instant Reaction to Trajan Langdon’s Hire I The Pindown
The Pindown comes to you with breaking news! Trajan Langdon is the new Head of Basketball Operations for the Detroit Pistons, with Woj breaking to story minutes before the guys recorded. Wes and Blake break down Langdon’s history as an executive, reveal his amazing nickname from his days at Duke, and provide way-too-early speculation on what recent draft history in New Orleans may suggest about the Pistons draft this season. They also discuss why they both are low Cody Williams in this draft, what it would mean for Donovan Clingan and Steph Castle to develop a jumpshot and general draft philosophies as we wrap up an eventful May of Detroit Basketball.

Déjà Vu with Bryce Simon I The Pindown
So that happened. It’s déjà vu across Detroit as the Pistons fell to the fifth pick in the NBA Draft yet again.

Bryce Simon from the Pistons Pulse joins the show to provide incredibly deep insight to all the names you need to know before June 26. Discussing Matas Buzelis, Ron Holland, Zacchaire Risacher, Devin Carter and so many more. Bryce and the guys also break down exactly what a roster built around Cade Cunningham would and should look like.

Why is the Head of Basketball Operations Search Taking this Long? I The Pindown
It’s been a week since we’ve last heard word on the Pistons search for a new Head of Basketball Operations, fans want answers, Blake and Wes have... guesses. The guys discuss what may be taking so long and what that new HoBO might do with Monty Williams. They also break down the top 5 of the draft, analyzing those prospects and their fits in Detroit. And while looking forward to the offseason, they analyze star trade targets like Trae Young, Brandon Ingram, and Mikal Bridges, discuss the free agent class, and ponder if it would be better to have four Simone Fontecchio’s or one additional All Star caliber player.
