More from Trajan Langdon on the Pistons’ need to figure out what they currently have: “We have to learn more about our players. … That continuity, not only with the roster but with the coaching staff, (is something) this group has never had before. That will be a positive.”

Reflecting on my first season covering the Pistons and I couldn’t have enjoyed myself more. I genuinely appreciate y’all rocking with me. I’d only been to Detroit twice before moving and I already feel at home. Looking forward to being back at LCA for more hoop in the fall.

First Take just had J.B. Bickerstaff sit through a full segment of Chris Russo yelling into the camera. What’s really going on?

Still can’t believe how that game ended. Off the top of my head, that’s gotta be one of the craziest playoff finishes I’ve watched live.

Ron told me earlier this season he’d never really had a shooting coach before this year. After getting downhill this well at 19, having an entire summer to refine his jumper should work wonders.
