Let’s be clear, tanking is not the answer for the Pistons

As the Pistons season continues to spiral, it’s been a common topic on Pistons Twitter and the DBB comments: tank! We’ll get Zion! It’ll be great!

No. Just...no.

Some are tongue in cheek, I know. But Mike Valenti of 97.1 The Ticket apparently read my article on breaking up with Andre Drummond and used it to prop his his own opinion that the team should tank. Well. Again...no.

To be clear, tanking is a terrible idea for the Pistons this season. It isn’t always a terrible idea, there are times for it.
