Biggest Priority: Can Blake Griffin, Andre Drummond co-exist? 

The Detroit Pistons, after firing Stan Van Gundy, have a bit of catching up to do. Based on their hiring of Dwane Casey, I believe they’re going to give this roster a go. This is the type of hire that, I believe, they made to try and compete and win now.

Problem is, I’m not entirely sold on if Blake Griffin and Andre Drummond can work together in the long run. They did some good things together in the short time they shared the court after the trade last season, but the sample size is way too small to make any type of determination.

Detroit needs to figure out if they plan on trading one of them this summer, or seeing what happens once the season starts.
