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.

Searching for New Leadership I The Pindown
It’s official. The Pistons wrapped up the worst season in franchise history and have announced that they are in search of new leadership. Wes and Blake breakdown what that search means for the immediate future of this roster, as well as Monty Williams and Troy Weaver. They discuss reasons Jalen Duren is not just another Andre Drummond, if the Pistons should pursue D'Angelo Russell or Pat Williams, and reminisce about Blake Griffin in Detroit.

The Offseason Shopping List I The Pindown
Fresh off a loss to the 76ers, all that stands between these Detroit Pistons and franchise history is an improbably three-game win streak. To make matters worse, Cade Cunningham’s injury has been upgraded from “maintenance” to tendonitis. Blake and Wes turn their attention toward the offseason, breaking down potential free agent targets for the Pistons and how Dalton Knecht would fit into this roster. They also discuss Jaden Ivey’s recent hot shooting, and why he seems to have more scrutiny of his jump shot than does Cade.

The Malachi Flynn Game! I The Pindown
It’s the Malachi Flynn game! The guys were lucky enough to record immediately following the Pistons 121 to 113 loss to the Atlanta Hawks where guard Malachi Flynn became only the third player in NBA history to score at least 50 points off the bench. Wes argues that this was the most improbably 50 point game in NBA history and Blake gives Flynn his flowers for the even and unselfish game he played. The guys also discuss if Jaden Ivey and Jalen Duren would be valued more highly that this year’s first round pick in trade discussions, what the organization can do to regain the faith of the fanbase, and if Troy Weaver is better at drafting talent or making trades.

One of my favorite podcasts - Pistons or otherwise. Laz and Ben do a great job speaking from an educated fan perspective and matching that perspective to their analysis. Somebody pick these guys up while they’re still free agents!
