They discuss why the team needs Jalen Duren to be more aggressive and why Duncan Robinson is so vital offensively. The guys also break down the early returns from Jaden Ivey, why we need to make sure to be patient with him as he gets his sea legs back under him. And finally, they dive into the 12-man rotation: what are the benefits, what do the guys need to do to make it work, and when it may be time to pull the plug.We’ve got you covered for all this and more in this week’s episode!We’ve got you covered for all this and more in this week’s episode!You can watch the entire episode on our YouTube channelFollow Wes Davenport on Twitter @TheRealWesD3Follow Blake Silverman on Twitter @BlakeSilvermanFollow Detroit Bad Boys on Twitter @DetroitBadBoysWant to hear your voice on the Pindown?
