We'll also break down the Pistons on-court performances from this past week. MAILBAG TIME! Do the Detroit Pistons make a trade before the deadline? What would the Pistons get in exchange for Derrick Rose? Do you think taking a buy-low shot on Lonzo Ball is a good idea? Would he fit with the young roster? What is Jerami Grants long term ceiling and which other NBA star does his game most closely mimic? If you could redo one draft between 2010-2021 which would it be? The kicker is that you can only select a player taken 1-3 spots after the Pistons selection All that and more in this week's episode. Thank you to every one who submitted questions.

Show notes

In this week’s episode of Inside The Cylinder, Matt and I (David Fernandez) break down the Detroit Pistons’ win against the Philadelphia 76ers.

We’ll also discuss the following topics Detroit being better than their 4-13 record If we’re concerned about Jerami Grant following his struggles from this past weekend What the future may hold for Detroit’s young core Who would we rather take moving forward - Josh Jackson or Svi Mykhailiuk?

Inside The Cylinder ep. 98: The Blake Griffin conundrum Jan 21, 2021

Show notes

In this week’s episode Matt Way and I (David Fernandez) get things going by breaking down the Detroit Pistons collapse against the Atlanta Hawks. Even though this year is all about the TANK, watching the Pistons cough up a 17 point lead in the fourth quarter is still hard on the eyes. One highlight from the game was Jerami Grant’s 32 point performance; which was somehow quiet yet destructive all at once - I’ll break down that concept further. A lowlight includes the Hawks’ bigs absolutely abusing Detroit’s front-court, more on that from Matt. And, as the the title signals, we finally have a long-form discussion regarding Blake Griffin. How should Detroit utilize him moving forward? What does the future hold for Griffin? We’ll take a deeper dive on those questions. Additional topics include Killian Hayes’ rehab strategy Possible trade chips and trade partners All that and more in this week’s episode!

Inside The Cylinder ep. 97: Sekou Doumbouya’s minutes - something or nothing? Jan 15, 2021

Show notes

In this week’s episode of Inside The Cylinder, David Fernandez and Matt Way break down Sekou Doumbouya’s minutes, or lack thereof. After a two game stretch where Doumbouya averaged just 5 minutes per game, he had a DNP-CD in their most recent game, this past Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks. Head Coach Dwane Casey has noted that Doumbouya hasn’t played because he’s been buried in the power forward rotation, but there’s been some instances where Griffin hasn’t played due to rest, and that hasn’t resulted in major minutes for the second year player from France. The situation is confusing, but at this point in the Pistons schedule, is it meaningful? They’ll also discuss the following topics The point guard rotation following Killian Hayes’ injury Detroit’s three point defense - what’s gone wrong? How do they fix it? COVID-19 and it’s effect on the NBA schedule The bottom of the NBA standings All that and more in this week’s episode!
