As a Detroit Pistons fan this couldn't have played out any better. Dwayne Casey is an extra person as everyone knows but he's been tasked with coaching a team on a constant rebuild status and having to develop new stars year after year without any super impactful veterans and I think everyone agrees that a new younger voice in the head coaching position would help get these young guys over the hump while Casey's wisdom and professional basketball knowledge will be an extraordinary upgrade for him and The Pistol organization. Great that we don't have to hire a new front office guy from outside. Thank you for your dedication to the Pistons and the city of Detroit Casey.
Great coach for a team of vets. These young guys need a young coach . Casey couldn’t help the hand he was dealt. Even though EVERYONE knew that Blake wouldn’t stay healthy. Glad he gets to stay with the pistons.
Casey was a disaster! How did he last so long?? Should have been fired a few years back. He was stealing the Pistons money! The team is in shambles. I would cut ties with him all together. One of the worst coaches in Pistons history!! Good riddance!
How are there so many dumb pistons fans commenting about Casey was a bad coach? THE PLAN after Cade went down was to lose for a chance at Wemby and develop the young guys. Success.

I think this might be the first time I've seen someone be so honest about moving on.
We appreciate your contributions here in a coaching role and I hope you do well a blossom in the front office role God bless and much love.

Thank god almighty
Dwane Casey was just horrible, his coaching style is outdated
Great coach for a team of vets. These young guys need a young coach . Casey couldn’t help the hand he was dealt. Even though EVERYONE knew that Blake wouldn’t stay healthy. Glad he gets to stay with the pistons.

How in the fk did he move into the front office? Welp. Good for him.
He only made the announcement to quit the head coaching job because he was getting fired anyway.
He should have been gone
Thanks Casey. You tried to clean up the mess Stan Van Gundy created. Lets not forget that. Stan Van Gundy put us in this bad spot.
I said a month after the season that He wasn't the coach for this team. They need a coach more suited for today's game and player.

Maybe the pistons will actually try to win games now
Great move, regardless of wins & loses he has a great basketball mind and he knows the chemistry you don’t foolishly throw that away
Bring in Udoka!!
