Biggest Weakness: Ultra Small Backcourt
I don’t know the plan the Pistons have for their backcourt, but I do know that there will be a problem either way you slice it.
If they decide to start Brandon Jennings and Reggie Jackson, there will be a problem for defenses as both guards are capable of putting up huge numbers, but defensively they will be really bad.
Both players need the ball in their hands to operate and last time I checked there is one ball for 10 players.
If they decide that pairing can’t work, then who comes off the bench? Is it Jennings – the player that was leading the Pistons resurgence last season before getting injured, or is it Jackson, the man you just gave a boat load of money to this offseason?
Problems.
