Okay, I need to admit something. I’m so old that I remember the rebuild the Detroit Pistons went through after the Bad Boys ended their run. The departure of respective guys from the championships teams (James Edwards, Vinnie Johnson, John Salley), the acquisition of playable veterans (Terry Mills, Olden Polynice, Alvin Robertson, Darrell Walker, Orlando Woolridge) were interwoven as the franchise tried to retool rather than bottom out. This was the first year of a new era with new executive Billy McKinney at helm replacing Trader Jack, and former assistant Ron Rothstein replacing Daddy Rich on the sidelines.
