Actually I have seen the Pistons be first in fewest turnovers the last two years.

AJ can find him. Watch and see.

There is about as much chance of that happening, except in an emergency situation, as there is of Michael Curry starting at SF this year as player coach.

Re: Rotations

Samb will be lucky to have any impact in NBDL. He's totally not ready for the majors. Rip can't run the point. Neither can Tay, except maybe bringing the ball up the court here and there. Tay is not going to get shots for the others. Someone like Stuckey could do it. Even Mejia would be a long shot.

Smile Re: Rotations

Here's my Roster Interpretation:

At first, I imagine the vets will hog a lot of the play time in the backcourt till the rookies, but as the season goes on I imagine it will start to look a bit like this:

Backcourt

Billups: 30 minutes
Rip: 30 minutes
Tay: 30 minutes

Stuckey: 23 minutes - 18 minutes as PG, 5 as SG
Afflalo: 15 minutes - 5 as SG, 10 as SF
Murray: 8 minutes at SG - he'll start with 15 minutes as the season starts, but they will slowly get cut down till 6-8 minutes
Dupree/Meijia: 8 minutes at SF - either they will split, or one will take the minutes from the other depending who makes roster cut.

*Amir: Might steal some minutes at SF - but it seems like pistons coaches have determined the experiment at SF did not work out for him. IF he gets minutes, they will probably be minimal.

Frontcourt:
Starting Combo will either be:
PF: Maxiell C:Wallace or PF: Wallace C:Nazr

Maxiell: 20 minutes @ PF
Wallace: 26 minutes @ PF/Center- He's our best defender he'll be still in plenty
Nazr: 18 minutes @ Center- May be off bench or starting, but he's the only real legit center we have (Besides Sheed who doesn't want to be "banged around")
Amir: 12 minutes @PF - He's still going to be a rookie to NBA caliber Talent, if he progresses well he may take playing time from others
McDyess: 20 minutes @PF/Center- A steady 20 minutes for Dyess

So there you have it.

I think this is workable for the most part. I would give Murray's minutes to Afflalo/Mejia though to give those guys minutes they need to develop their game against NBA competition.

Re: Rotations

Ideally I would like even more minutes to go to the young guys, but with flip as coach that rotation seems pretty generous

Well, Flip was mandated by Joe to give more time to the youngsters and cut vets' playing time, so going from there I'd think that they do get the minutes.

Re: Rotations

Maybe we will "showcase" Nazr and Murray for a while. The key is making them look really good. Run plays for them, give them a lot of minutes, say nice things about them, etc.
