Ron Holland Selected No. 5 Overall By Detroit Pistons I 2024 NBA Draft Grades I CBS Sports

[@LUMBEEPHENOM2012]

Can’t believe so many don’t like this pick. I get the shooting aspect but you can pick that up in free agency.

[@AutoPil0t459]

These idiots don't watch pistons games and don't know what we actually need.

[@NotOneToFly]

The amount of shooting needed to get the Pistons' spacing to the level of a mid-2010's NBA team is... significant. Like four rotation players worth. If they want to look like a modern team, they have to ditch everyone except Cade.

They just hired the best shooting coach in the league Why are we complaining about shooting

[@TenThumbsProductions]

So… why don’t the Pistons just shoot less 3 and bang on small line ups and D up? We can’t shoot, so maybe instead of playing the game that the whole league does, go back in time and bully these dudes

[@civichoodlang]

I say this every time I speak on my Pistons. Attack the basket, get teams in foul trouble, maximize our speed in the open floor, backdoor screens/cuts, lob threat.......the 3's will fall eventually since they are PROFESSIONAL ball players. That's why the NBA viewership is suffering. Everybody jacking 3's instead of playing BASKETBALL.

[@robertstamps1593]

[@stlegion-px1wo]

If we’re being honest we’re still picking in the top of draft for the next couple of years anyway .regardless of who they took so they took a extremely athletic defensive player who’s a bit of a project but he also 18 almost 19 so that’s expected. And the pistons got the best shooting coach they could to improve his biggest weakness. Had Ron holland gone to play college ball instead of the NBA g league ignite were probably talking about him as the number 1 overall pick in a couple of years from now that the pistons would only get if they won the draft lottery.

[@p-dub7422]

So why won't the Pistons select him if they need shooting and he is not a good one? Also, if they had a coach in place would they have made a different selection?

[@coldsoldier313]

I give the pick a C

[@tommcdaniel9554]

Jaden Ivey (fifth overall, 2022); Ausar Thompson (fifth overall, 2023); Ron Holland (fifth overall, 2024). If you package up all three players in a trade deal, you might get a bag of balls in return. I feel really bad for Cade Cunningham.

[@silewis9396]

Don't forget Killian Hayes who was Cade had as his guard that came in the year before 7th overall... only to be WAVED within 4 years.

[@tommcdaniel9554]

[@ABruhMan]

I love his potential BUT come on man, when are we going to address this shooting!!!!!!

[@bobbybagseed]

60 million to spend on it. Also Fontechio. Cade and Ivey are fine. Beef stew knocks em down. Add Luke Kenard and Tobias Harris and everything looks different. Plus it's been these young guys against the world. Once they finally have a real team with veterans and can play within themselves the shots will come much easier

[@explosivediarrhea4671]

We will address it in the draft next season with the 4th pick

Risky pick, but I believe he has one of the highest ceiling’s in this draft. The previous front office left a steaming turd sandwich. Can’t go for a safe middle of the road guy. Still think they have to move Ivey. I love his game but he doesn’t gel with Cade’s game.
