Hey everyone. This is Laz Jackson of Detroit Bad Boys, and on this week's podcast, we're talking about your 14-26 Detroit Pistons. Ben Gulker lets me fire off my hot take about Derrick Rose, then we talk about how the team is handling Sekou Doumbouya and exiling Andre Drummond to basketball Siberia. This mid-season adjustment to a rebuild has thrown fans, the coaches, and front office for a loop - but that means the Pistons have to steer into the skid, and playing Derrick Rose 30 minutes a night doesn't help that.

In this week’s episode, I’m joined by Detroit Bad Boys’ own Shameek Mohile! We’ll discuss what Detroit should do with a winnable schedule approaching. They’re only 3.5 games back of the eight seed in the East, and will face off against 13 teams with losing records, in their next 17 games.

We’ll also break down the Blake Griffin situation, and discuss why it’s almost a guarantee that he’ll be shut down for the remainder of the season. With Blake Griffin on the bench, that’s given rise to DR. DOOM aka Sekou Doumbouya - we’ll cover what’s impressed us so far with the rookie.

And last, but certainly not least - we’ll tackle the 6’11 elephant in the room - Andre Drummond. It’s almost a guarantee that he’ll be traded in the next month - what should Detroit expect in return? Who’s a realistic trading partner? And what does a trade mean for the Pistons’ near future?

All that and more in this week’s episode!

In this week's episode of Inside The Cylinder, we discuss the Pistons recent "surge". They've won four of their last six games: is this a sign that the season may turnaround? Or is it more reflective on their quality of opponent?

We'll also discuss Reggie Jackson's impending return - he'll be re-evaluated in the next couple of days, and could get back on court as early as next week. How will this affect the Pistons line-ups? Who's minutes are going to decrease? And should Jackson come off the bench?

Lastly, we'll talk the upcoming trade season, that kicks off on December 15th, when 90% of the league will be eligible to be traded. What will the Pistons do? What should the Pistons do? Buy, sell or stand pat?

All that and more in this week's episode! And make sure to follow Inside The Cylinder on Twitter at @InsideTheCylndr!

I fly solo this week to talk about why I believe rebuilding isn't necessarily the path forward for this team, why I'd be comfortable trading this year's first-round pick to get a certain type of player on this team, and what kind of an owner Tom Gores is.
