Talking about, you know, speaking about Kobe Bryant, you know, what were some of the differences in, you know, them coming up in the same time, kind of the bigger ushering in, the bigger two-guard athletic – bringing back the Michael Jordan sense, but those two guys, what were some of the differences that you saw in the two clients?

I will say this about TMAC.

I think TMAC, on the basketball side, well, was a better athlete.

Mm-hmm.

Um...

he had incredible, incredible athletic ability.

And I think injuries cut his career a little short.

What was ultimately behind that decision for yourself and for Mr. Gores to walk away from that type of revenue, but ultimately knowing that in the long haul, this is what's best for the Detroit Pistons?

They only won 14 games two years ago Talk a little bit about what the team has accomplished and even if you'd like where we're headed

Well, it's nothing short of amazing.

I think it's the most significant turnaround in NBA history and So credit to Tom Gores, first, for making the tough decisions, one, to stick with the rebuild and going through the pain of the rebuild, and two, to change the leadership that we needed to change to bring in the right coach and front office.

We have a great, young, talented team in Cade Cunningham, Jalen Dern, Asar Thompson, and many others.

And I think even though we had a disappointing last game of the season, we won 60 games.

We had the third-best record in the NBA, the best record in the East.

And I think the most important thing for everyone to understand is that we're going to have a great run ahead of us.

And give me a little thought on this, Arne Tellem, on what bringing a WNBA franchise back to Detroit could mean for our city.
