2. Who will Coach?
Monty Williams was hired at the time as the highest-paid NBA head coach of all time and produced the longest losing streak in NBA history. Make it make sense. Williams has proven to be a competent coach, and there is a legitimate argument that no coach past or present could make the roster work, but there were questionable decisions from him that should be called into question. Starting Killian Hayes for as long as he did, the all-bench lineups for a team with zero depth, and the overall lack of development are all legitimate concerns and could lead to a firing if it's something the team is willing to do.
On one hand, Williams being fired could help, but he could be retained depending on how the team rebuilds their roster. Assuming he gets fired, the Pistons should prioritize player development and a younger coach who can develop with the players. Coaches like Sam Cassell, Becky Hammon, and Chris Quinn could be instant candidates due to their time as assistants, or even take a risk on JJ Redick, who has connections to Langdon and Vice-Chairman Arn Tellem. The team needs time to develop, and Langdon must consider who's going to lead the on-court play.
