The Pindown: A Detroit Pistons Podcast

For this episode, Jordan Bellant and Ben Gulker are joined by a special guest, Mike Nicol. Mike is a fan and frequent contributor on Detroit Bad Boys and brings his expertise to the pod. 

The episode starts by talking through some of Mike's earliest and best memories as a Pistons fan. Also, how he became a fan of the team and found DBB. 

Then the conversation moves onto the team's interesting offseason. Starting with the draft, the guys break down the pick of Luke Kennard. Jordan offers up a case for Donovan Mitchell and why the two picks will always be tied together (like KCP and Trey Burke). 

Next comes free agency and the team's surprising move to trade for Avery Bradley, moving Marcus Morris in the process. More than that, the decision to move on from Kenavious Caldwell-Pope. Good luck in L.A., KCP!

In this week’s episode, Joey and David are joined by Detroit Bad Boys’ Editor, Laz Jackson. They’ll be discussing the results of the NBA Draft Lottery. Who should the Pistons select at No. 12 overall? A guy that's ready to play immediately? Or should they select someone who’ll need more time to develop and may never pan out, but has a bigger upside?

The guys will also talk  Isiah Thomas (Detroit) vs. Isaiah Thomas (Boston). Who would they take in the prime of their career? Who would they want to have the ball in their hands for the final possession? Will there be a SCORCHING HOT TAKE?

In the latest edition of Pistons' News, Laz, Joey and David chat about the new Pistons logo. They also talk about some of the better logos/uniforms in the league, and which teams desperately need a refresh.
