J.D.

He gets downhill immediately.

I think that's such a cool...

like change up to Cade Cunningham.

Cade is so much more methodical.

You got the speed guy in Jenkins.

I can see him getting a chance to be a starter in the post season.

If things aren't going well, like if, if Duncan Robinson becomes a target or something on the defensive end.

So that's cool.

And I think this is just awesome.

What the Pistons have done a to hold onto the one seed and the Eastern conference is pretty impressive.

Once Cade went down and has missed like 10 games out, basically,

at this point.

And the Pistons haven't taken a step back at all.

At the very least, now when they get into the postseason, despite the lack of experience, they just got this one first-round hard-fought series from last year underneath their belts.

But they can look back

on these 10 to 15 games at the end of the season say Cade picks up two fouls in the first quarter of game three at least they can go back and say yeah we played pretty well yeah when he was down the chemistry between Cade and Duren is more so than it is between Jenkins and Duren but I think they figured out how to play with each other as well so this has been a

Decent stretch for the Pistons.

A bummer to lose Cade at the time they did, but they really found something and they figured out another way to play.

And it just gives them another option when the entire year we're talking about what's it going to be like for the Pistons when things get tough and they take away the number one guy in Cade.

They've got reliable number twos right now in Duren and Jenkins.
