Well, Kofi, thank you for answering all of our Pistons questions, but it is now time to play Andrew versus the beat. Our weekly trivia show where Andrew goes head to head against an NBA beat writer, or in this case, Kofi. So, Kofi, how this works, I've come up with eight questions about the Pistons. You're going to give me a number between one and eight. It'll correspond to a question.
