More NBA draft talk: Breaking down Amen, Ausar Thompson with Matt Babcock

As the Detroit Pistons front office continues their search for a head of basketball operations, the guys turn their focus to the upcoming NBA draft. Bryce and Omari share their top 10 big boards, and break down how each may work with the Pistons next season. Would Dalton Knecht be an ideal fit next to Cade Cunningham? Is Reed Sheppard efficient enough to overlook his small stature? Should Donovan Clingan be a top 5 pick? Is Alex Sarr a lock at number 1? The guys answer all of these and more as we prepare for an incredibly important draft this offseason.

Discussing our top 10 draft boards and which picks fit Detroit Pistons

With an infamously historic regular season now over for the Detroit Pistons, the guys get us up to speed on the future of the organization and the search for new leadership in the front office. After the break, Bryce and Omari shift the pod to an impromptu listener mailbag episode. What’s the ideal player type to complement Cade? What do the guys make of the Trae Young rumors? What kind of trade would it take to jumpstart the rebuild? The guys aim to answer these questions and more as we look towards the off-season for the team.

What we know so far about Detroit Pistons' search for president of basketball operations

The guys open the pod this week with a rap beef that seems to lack real meat, the controversial foul call in the UConn vs. Iowa, and Malachi Flynn's 50-point game. Later in the pod, Bryce and Omari revisit the areas of improvement they wanted to see most from the team roster at the beginning of the year. The guys sort through what they got right and what hasn't aged well, including Cade's health, Duren's injury prevention, Ausar's jump shot, Ivey's shooting efficiency and Sasser's role on the team.
