Dear D-Towners,
Enjoy this Cup. It may be a rocky road for a while.
The Tigers are currently 24-35, losers of three straight and 3-7 in their last ten. Leyland’s patented rant—now copied by the likes of John McLaren—may have worked in 2006 (they started slow, then made the Series) but it’s not working now. Despite a lineup that should terrify Greg Maddux in his prime, the team is essentially treading water.
The Pistons? Joe Dumars says “everyone is on the table.” They might hire a long-term assistant as their head man when Avery Johnson is available (hey, so’s Isiah!). Rasheed, arguably the most talented player on the team-first Pistons, is likely the first to go in a fire sale. The East may be weak, but 11 months out, we can’t see the Pistons making seven straight Conference Finals.
Then there’s the Lions…
