Stan Van Gundy's Pistons tenure gave us 'Notorious S.V.G.'

Editor's note: Today the Pistons announced that they and Stan Van Gundy, the team's coach and president of basketball operations since 2014, have parted ways. While Van Gundy's legacy isn't one of winning in Detroit, he did leave us with an image we'll never forget. MLive.com sports photographer Mike Mulholland breaks down his viral photo.

Back in October 2015, the Detroit Pistons were taking part in the Slow Roll Detroit event, which happens every week throughout the summer and early fall.

Stan Van Gundy had just taken a photo with a fan. The event was starting a little late - which is to be expected with a professional sports team - but Van Gundy was ready to ride.
