Monty will continue his extended evaluation period, and the rotation will be:

Duren/Wiseman
Fontecchio/Brown Jr
Ausar/Shakes
Ivey/Grimes/Fournier
Cade/Flynn/Sasser

Evan is a veteran and Monty doesn't have the heart to sit him out.

So far on the betting they won’t let you bet Fournier, so it might be a sign he isn’t expected to play much tonight. Usually they will let you bet o/u on his threes in a sgp, maybe closer to game they will, but if they don’t I don’t see him playing much

Just from a logical standpoint, understanding where the team is at in the season, and what is known about players, these are the players that should see playing time/minutes every night;

Cade
Ivey
Ausar
Duren
Sasser
Grimes
Stewart(when healthy and not suspended)
Tek
Musky

Players who, if one player or another is having an off-not, matchups, or a spark is needed;

TBJ
Shake

Emergency use only;

Fournier
Flynn

Never

Buddy
Wiseman

Monty has his head, deep, deep up into his ass, and seems to think its normal for NBA teams to run 11-12 guys nightly, and play starters under 25 only 30min, and guys who shouldn't even play, 25mpg.

This has to stop, or he has to be fired, or this whole season will have been a total loss.

Sadly this whole season is a total loss. It’s a very sad time in piston land, unless you’re Monty

No one asked Monty? (where's basic journalism?)

Fans of other teams just cannot relate to this for the past what, 20+ years?

People think the Pistons are bad.

No.

The Pistons are all-time horrendous.

10-70 over 80 games seems impossible.

:lol:

Says Sasser is out. The betting sites aren’t letting you bet Fournier so hopefully he don’t get much pt. Grimes they letting you bet, so hopefully he gets run.

I'm hearing Banchero yelling around the rim. I have never been a fan of that.

I can still hear the Siakam scream in my nightmares.

Fournier. I mean he’s shooting good, I’ve always like him. Weird Knicks couldn’t find a way to use him

James wiseman on the floor again.

Fire Monty Williams everytime he plays.

Is it crazy to say that Monty Williams might be top 5 worst Piston coaches all-time? Highest paid for sure, but it feels crazy to say it.

Strange watching James Wiseman + four guys who weren't here five games ago out there together and then they take one of those four out and put in another guy who is new. Doesn't even feel like I'm watching Pistons.
