    Will Bynum

    I've always said that Will Bynum was the best player on the Pistons, but he's never gotten a fair shot.

    Despite that, he holds the record for most points in a quarter, and most assists in a game EVER for the Detroit Pistons.

    He's also dropped 30 points on the Heat in back to back years.

    Yeah I remember watching that game when he dunked on Tyson Chandler, he's thrown down a few mean ones like those in his career. GOAT.

    This year he's looking like he could be third string behind Jennings, and Augustin, despite that he's arguable a much better player than both, despite his lack of three point shooting.

    But you can never count Bynum out.

    The Pistons return incumbent starter Brandon Jennings and Van Gundy added D.J. Augustin as a free agent and drafted Spencer Dinwiddie. If you expected Bynum to take that news hard, try again.

    “C’mon, man. I’ve been here with Allen Iverson, Ben Gordon, Chauncey Billups, (Rodney) Stuckey, (Arron) Afflalo,” he said. “I’ve been here on and on with players. I’m still here. That should let you know something about me.”

    Maybe this would have worked better as a player on your favorite team who you feel is underrated by the masses.

    I feel Tiago Splitter on the Spurs is underrated by many. He is a good defender of the pick&roll and a good position defender. He can pass really well, hit free throws and finish solid around the basket.

    He isn't a flashy player, doesn't block shots or get the ball a lot on offense which makes casual fans believe he isn't a big time contributor to the Spurs winning

    Well since everyone has already mentioned the best choice for that title my squad(Will Bynum), I'll mention someone that's not really as known yet but well be.

    KCP, I expect him to make a significant leap this year. Great potential.

    Tony Wroten- When given playing time he can do some things.

    Explosiveness

    Passing

    Swagger
    vL8q.gif

    In 2013-14, Tony Wroten attempted 808 shots. Of those, 599 came in the paint, 188 were threes, and just 21 were taken from midrange. Breaking it down further, all but 88 of his attempts in the painted area came from inside the charge circle; his 511 restricted area attempts placed him tenth in the league in that category, a remarkable feat considering that he logged just 1,765 minutes last season (24.5 per game). Russell Westbrook is the only other guard to eclipse 500 rim attempts in a season since 2011-12, notching 578 in 2012-13.

    Yeah I love checking boxscores from every team, every night, and I was always pleasantly surprised when I checked the Sixers box scores and despite a loss, Wroten would always be putting in work, and doing so in limited minutes as well. You have to respect his game.

    I thought most people knew about Bynum because of his hops...for those in the know that is.

    I've followed him since HS that Chicago reality show with him and Sean Dockery. Dockery went to the better HS, went to Duke, better home situation, Bynum had to transfr to diffrent schools, etc.

    Now Bynum's the 10 year vet. Boy he sure did win that battle lol
