And some people are excited to see what Cunningham can do, but they also don’t want the Pistons to be too good because they might miss out on the chance to get the No. 1 draft pick next year.
Pistons fans are being tempted by the idea of ​​tanking and trying to land Cooper Flagg in the next draft.
They need to be awesome one more year and try to get the Cooper flag
