Wow, and here I thought all the Pistons fans on here had been replaced by pod people. Thanks for proving me wrong!

Not very talented? He's in the NBA! Getting PT on a championship contender! What?

Remember when Michael Redd was in Milw backing up Ray Allen?? Late pick, started out solidly and then took over.....that story is starting to look real familiar around these parts.

I didn't know AA was that religious.

AA better get his shot down or AAR will cause his benching.

I'm scared to buy into this, because the logical conclusion is that Flip was allowed to coach in a manner not sanctioned by the front office for at least one season, if not 3.

I think Flip over thought things too much like a lot of coaches seem to do. They get caught up in the match ups instead of just letting the guy's play. When a guy or a certain group has it going you leave them in the game until they show signs of fatigue. Flip was good at taking out players or a group of players that were in a zone and ruining the flow of the game.

Hopefully the front office is learning from their mistakes and adapting.

I think the picture might have been too big for Flip. He can only handle so much. I mean he does afterall only call 3 plays.

If that's true, it sadly looks like money was more and more the major point of contention.
