Pistons are very good but we’re missing at least 2 things. Ball handler/scorer and another big.

May I make some predictions they are going to be lots of disappointment first of all OKC will not advance out of the west news flash this will be LA Clippers coming out of the west. And will face the Raptors who will advance out of the East. Believe that.
