Anthony Tolliver’s eighth NBA season will be the first where he returns to the same team, same coach, same system.
“I’ve thought back to my whole career, even in Minnesota when I was there for two years, we switched coaches (Kurt Rambis to Rick Adelman), had two different systems,” he said. “So change has always been something for me. I’ve gotten used to it. What might be different is doing the same thing over again.”
The Pistons changed their roster significantly over the summer – there’s a good chance they’ll open the season with five new players in their rotation – but there is an element of stability in place, too, as they enter the second year of the Stan Van Gundy era.
