Will Kevin Huerter Find His Three-Point Shot With Detroit Pistons? | Channeling THE WINDY MEME…
Detroit Pistons eye a pivotal roster shake-up before the NBA trade deadline. Can Kevin Huerter recapture his elite shooting form and transform Detroit’s spacing woes? Insightful analysis covers Huerter’s declining three-point percentages, his surprising finishing ability at the rim, and defensive versatility compared to top-tier shooters. Is his reputation enough to command defensive gravity and unlock Cade Cunningham’s offensive potential?
Host Ku Khahil unpacks the franchise’s strategic maneuvering around Daniss Jenkins’ contract and the implications for Dario Šarić’s future in Detroit. Explore the Pistons’ quest to maintain luxury tax flexibility, potential trade partners like the Brooklyn Nets, Indiana Pacers, and Washington Wizards, plus the cost of salary dumps in the current NBA market. With critical frontcourt needs and limited shooting, do the Pistons need one more trade to satisfy fans and front office ambitions—or could patience pay off as Detroit builds for the future?

Spurs just beat thunder. Pistons tied for best record in the NBA. Woohoo.
I think Pistons should make a bigger move. If they don’t, there’s a possibility they could find someone on the buyout/waivers but who?
Windy meme was hinting that he thought the Jazz were about to blow it up and he was right
☝️😐☝️ why would the pistons do that?
If they could do some sort of trade with Saric, LeVert, and maybe Sasser that would be great. However if there is nothing available along the margins, I would say just buy out Saric.
My question remains they are in a fine position to do what? Is it to just win a playoff round? Is to take advantage of a weakened East and make it to the Finals? If Detroit stands pat with this move are they built to come out of the East? Celtics and Cavs got better and they have more experience in the playoffs. The Knicks are starting to heat up they primarily beat Detroit because they did not have a secondary scorer who could consistently create a shot for themselves or others. I was puzzled by the move for Huerter but the more I see him before his injury and his shot fell off he'd be a perfect fit. I agree with Ku Detroit is still short in shooting from the PF position. Opportunities like this season don't come along often to assume that you going to be in the same position next year is dangerous. Celtics, Cavs, Knicks, and Magic will be better next year. Maybe not the Knicks but my point is take advantage of what could be something special and stop being conservative. So what you thought the season would be just improving slightly and winning a first round match in the playoffs would have been an accomplishment. The team is infinitely better than that so as a President/GM adjust your expectations. Go get a MPJ and give this team a real shot to get to the Finals. The Pacers did it and they were only stopped by a major injury in the Finals. Do what it takes to take advantage of your success. Scared money don't make money ask the Lions, Tigers, and Wings. Internal development alone is overrated. I do not want to see a bunch of 4th quarter leads wasted again in the playoffs because nobody but Cade can create a shot. Detroit is getting away with it right now in the regular season. It's been happening all season despite their success. The playoffs are a different story. Just my thoughts.
Kevin Huerter on a winning team like Detroit will be a lethal weapon. Watch….wings are on fire 🔥
Bruh you're late on posting reactions for every game, let alone trade deadline talk for the last couple weeks – even away games (since you've used the fact you go to home games as an excuse). Do your job homie. I remember seeing a new game reaction video of a game on my feed not a week ago when we had already played another game.
its so simple,higher ups want to make money. They dont care about winning, they want to keep making money.
Do you think Klintman can contribute to a playoff run more than Saric if he is healthy? I do not. I do think if it’s about salary for another move it makes sense to trade him, but I would rather have Saric than Klintman.
We're really trying to gas up Huerter and a pick swap with a playoff team. Ivey will come back to haunt us.
I think Trajan really likes the fit I’m starting to come around
