I mean why not? Its not like the Detroit Pistons can get any worse.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports, Stan Van Gundy is close to signing a deal that will basically give him full control of the organization.
The Detroit Pistons are nearing an agreement to make Stan Van Gundy their president of basketball operations and coach, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
Detroit has discussed a deal centered on five years and $35 million to deliver Van Gundy full autonomy to rebuild the franchise, league sources said.
“There are still some details to be worked out,” a source with knowledge of the process told Yahoo Sports on Tuesday night.
Van Gundy has had a lot of time to reflect on what went wrong in Orlando and is probably chomping at the bit to get back into action. I just hope he can handle the workload that comes with being both president and head coach of a franchise, especially one as wounded as the Pistons.
