Reese's Shea, Reed Shepard, still a conversation in many practice facilities.
But I want to push back on something.
I love the Detroit Pistons.
I thought they should have beat the Knicks in the playoffs last year.
No disrespect to the Knicks.
There were some tight calls there.
I feel like Detroit was still learning how to win.
They had this weird Malik Beasley thing, which in retrospect was very distracting.
But they're 15-2, man.
And they look great protecting the paint and they look good attacking the paint.
They have this Cunningham-Durham pick and roll thing that is emerging as one of the most reliable two-man games ever.
in the Eastern Conference.
The shooting is a little questionable.
Duncan Robinson is filling that role nicely, but still beyond Duncan if Tobias Harris isn't playing a lot.
But I love Detroit.
I think they deserve to be in the Knicks-Cavs conversation.
If I had to elevate one team, it's definitely Detroit, and I'll take the 15-2 record as Exhibit A there.
Well, I got, I got, you know, one, the nerds are really talking about this one, which is picks, picks are in decline.

The D'Antoni Suns obviously made it a pick-and-roll game.
