Detroit Pistons Summer League Roster Breakdown: Vegas Style

What’s going on World? It’s time to take a look at the Las Vegas Summer League Roster now until July 18th. (CLICK LINK TO WATCH LIVE GAMES!)

DATE GAME TIME TV
July 13 Detroit vs. L.A. Clippers 10:00 p.m. EST none
July 15 Detroit vs. Milwaukee 6:00 p.m. EST none
July 17 Detroit vs. Dallas 4:00 p.m. EST NBA TV
July 18 Detroit vs. Charlotte 6:00 p.m. EST none

I just want to make a note of what each player should focus on while playing in summer league.

Following is the Pistons Summer League Roster:

PLAYER POS HT WT COLLEGE BIRTHDATE NBA EXP.
He is injured. Too bad he had a shot as the 14th man on the roster. Alex Acker G 6-5 185 Pepperdine 1/21/83 1 year
He needs to try to score 30 points every game. Show us he is not afraid to shoot. Arron Afflalo G 6-5 215 UCLA 10/15/85 1 year
Who? No seriously. He is almost 28. Hopefully he learned something from Euro ball. Derrick Allen F 6-8 238 Mississippi 7/17/80 R
He has a shot to be the 3rd pg especially with Acker hurt. He needs to be a bulldog on D and be a tough little yellow jacket. Will Bynum G 6-0 185 Georgia Tech 1/4/83 1 year
A Detroit product, HS and College. He has a chance to show that he can compete on this level. Maybe in 2-3 years he can make a NBA Roster. Ryvon Coville F 6-9 250 Detroit 3/1/84 R
This guy is a bull. Rebounded with the best of them in college. If he can do it in Summer League, he could stick like a Reggie Evans. 270 makes him a really big boy. Kentrell Gransberry F/C 6-9 270 South Florida 8/1/85 R
Amir. The Valley Boy. Soft as Cotton no mo’. Play Hard. Dont get hurt. Show people an inside /outside game. I know you can do it. Amen. Amir Johnson F 6-9 210 Westchester HS (Los Angeles) 5/1/87 3 years
Well I hear Trent can run a 4.4 or 4.5 40 yard dash. You better be the 1st big up the court everytime or you are never making our roster. Trent Plaisted F 6-11 245 BYU 10/20/86 R
Mr. Samb. Show off that jumper boy! Make Mike Curry play you next year. You aren’t getting any younger. Cheikh Samb C 7-1 195 Senegal 10/22/84 1 year
Show us you were worth the pick. We have alot invested in you even if you were a 2nd Round pick. Be the best 2nd rounder in Summer League. Walter Sharpe F 6-9 245 Alabama-Birmingham 7/16/86 R
Detroit Renaissance product. Enough Said. He will impress. He is simply a smart, efficient ball player. Marcus Stout G 6-4 195 Fordham 6/20/86 R
DON’T GET HURT! PLEASE DONT GET HURT! Rodney Stuckey G 6-5 205 Eastern Washington 4/21/86 1 year
Nate’s boy. Show us some athleticism and defense and you can make the roster in 2009. Deron Washington G/F 6-7 210 Virginia Tech 12/12/85 R

COACH: Michael Curry, 1st Year *He needs to start learning his team from the position and outlook of being the man in charge. The players who are apart of the rotation playing in summer league, (The Bench Babies) will be a major factor. They have to play in 08-09 for the sake of the future of our franchise.

I’m Out.

Hey Guys,

Good show, though you guys spend a little too much time fantasizing over who we will never get rather than on realistic prospects. AND you are way too hard on Chauncey. He gave us a lot playing with injuries, more than Sheed. Billups will never be Isaiah, but I’d like to see him around one more year to help Stuckey with the transition. Remember we took Boston to 6 games with a bad coach. Now we have a good one and Walter Sharpe to boot!

Now, more importantly, time for you guys to dig into those deep pockets and buy a pot! I recently updated my website. Take a look when you get a chance.

All the best,

John

Episode 58!

-Free Agency Update: James Jones from Portland or C.J. Miles from Utah

-Pistons Summer League Roster: What to expect from The Bench Babies?

-Top Listener Email: Richard from Howell, Michigan

I just wanted to share a video that our dear listener Richard edited and posted on Youtube.

The video is about Ben Wallace. On Episode 58, Richard emailed us and asked a simple but interesting question.

Hey guys,
what do you think about Ben Wallace? Do you think he will ever wear a Pistons uniform again?

I think if we traded Chauncey and Maxiell for him we could win another Championship with Stuckey running the point.

-Richard

Obviously we know how Richard feels especially after watching that Nostalgic video. Where did that Ben Wallace of old go?

If you want to know where Deven and I stand on this issue tune in to Episode 58!
