Instead of spending a beautiful Saturday in October outside, I went to Little Caesars Arena for the Pistons open practice. It is hard to make any clear evaluations from an hour and a half practice and team scrimmage, there were a few interesting things to me.
Practice started out with a message to the crowd from Dwane Casey, and that was the most I would see or hear from Casey the rest of the day. The team started off with a few typical drills, working on defense, working on ball movement and spacing, and then a weave drill involving passing and shooting between three players.
