The Pistons Pulse

With team performance severely below expectations this year and fan frustration only growing, Bryce, Omari and Wes put our listeners in the Front Office and asked for their suggestions to fix the team. Should the organization remain patient and not make huge moves? What about potential trade deals for the likes of Zach LaVine or Kyle Kuzma? Is Jaden Ivey the ideal trade piece? Is it time to go for the nuclear option and clear out the entire team and management? The guys take your suggestions and break down the pros and cons.

And will the Pistons be able to keep experimenting with Beef Stew at the 4? Plus, the guys discuss some of the positive developments from Jaden Ivey. Did Monty Williams' message to Ivey work, or was it a waste of time?
