East Lansing — In the Pistons’ effort to revamp their second unit, they brought in experienced veterans, including Markieff Morris, Tim Frazier and Joe Johnson.
The emphasis looks to be in the backcourt, though, where the biggest addition will be Derrick Rose, who fills the void left by Ish Smith’s departure to the Washington Wizards. Smith was known as one of the fastest players in the league, but Rose is giving him a run for his money.
Coach Dwane Casey is looking for a multi-faceted guard who can score from the perimeter, break down defenses and create opportunities for others.
