As we continue to preview the Pistons upcoming season, I’d like to introduce a somewhat optimistic but mostly sarcastic look at each player. It’s simple, what’s the best-case and worst-case scenario for the 2014-15 season? By that, I mean what’s the EXTREME possibility in both.

Let’s have a little fun with the Pistons’ preview season:

Aaron Gray

BEST CASE: Signed as an insurance option in case of emergency, Gray serves his purpose. He comes back from his “cardiac episode” and resumes his career with no issues. Gray brings energy and a big body in practice, and when he does play he does enough to not hurt the team.

WORST CASE: Well, his “cardiac episode” ends his career. But in a less grim view, let’s say Gray does come back. Problem with that is he is who we thought he was. The White Panther brings nothing to the table when pressed to play and eventually spends the year warming the bench in a mediocre selection of suits.
