After three consecutive defeats, Detroit Pistons have problem in their offense. Coach Stan Van Gundy held a team meeting and it may be a good time to have a change in the roster.
The worst defeat happened on Monday night in a blowout loss 82-113 against Chicago Bulls. Coch Van Gundy was reported to have a long team meeting according to FOX Sports, calling the performance as disgusting.
“It was a disgusting performance,” the coach said. “By all of us, me included. It was unprofessional, embarrassing, humiliating, whatever you want to say. It was terrible.”
Prior to the humiliating defeat, Pistons have another team meeting after Indiana Pacers defeated them 105–90. However, things do not change in the Bulls game and their bad offense has made the team paid the high price in a embarrassing defeat. According to Michigan Live, coach Van Gundy promises to change the starting line-up in Wednesday game against Memphis Grizzlies at Auburn Hill, Detroit.
Currently the Pistons is at the 10th place in the Eastern Conference with 14-16 records. Their performance this season have been going downward since December with 4 loses and 6 wins. The comeback of point guard Reggie Jackson after knee injury has not made the team play better, because Jackson himself was unable to perform as he was before injury.
The starting line up only scored 42 points in the game against the Bulls. Currently, Pistons ranked the last in the league for points per game with 93.6 points in average. Their starters are ranked 29 out of 30.
This may be the good time for Detroit Pistons to revamp its roster and adding some depth. There are many players who has performed below expectation and Van Gundy may start to think to let some players go to bring back the glorious day of Detroit Pistons that have won three NBA champions..
