Congratulations, Dwane Casey, you’re no longer the head coach of the Detroit Pistons. You had an amazing five-year run where you did everything this rebuilding franchise asked of you. Now it is time for you to enjoy a healthy pay check, better hours, and more time with your family and friends as a member of the Pistons’ front office. You’ve earned it.
I’m not sure this is how the conversation will go when Casey speaks with Pistons owner Tom Gores after the season, but the end result might be the same. Casey already had one conversation with Gores after the team’s 123-108 home finale loss to the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday.
