Detroit Pistons: You’ve traded for the #5 and #8 picks in the NBA Draft

You must not believe the hype surrounding the top-four players because you’ve just passed up a chance at any of them for a huge platter from the Magic that includes two picks, Isaac and a future pick.

You had better stay away from the newspapers for the next few weeks because you are going to get grilled for passing on a top-four talent, but if you truly believe none of those players are that good, and that the collective impact of two top-8 picks will be greater, then this is the move to make.

You have a lot of options now with these two picks, but I am only going to give you three. There are endless choices here so I just took some guys who are projected to go in this range or have been linked to the Detroit Pistons in some way.
