The Detroit Pistons trusted Stan Van Gundy to not only be their coach but to also be their president. Van Gundy's success in Orlando and his impressive interview with Pistons owner Tom Gores was more than enough to get him the dual-role job. Van Gundy empowered Jeff Bower to be his right-hand man in the front office, which allowed Van Gundy to concentrate on the court during the regular season. And in the process, the duo has put together a roster that feels like a perennial playoff team and is just getting started in terms of building up into a team that can eventually challenge as a title contender.
