It is said that the Pistons in the 2014-2015 season are Dafan's first season in office, the signing that should be signed, the cut that should be cut, and the letting go, just when Dafan rolled up his sleeves and was about to do a big job, unfortunately, Jennings was seriously injured and the season was reimbursed.

The Pistons, who lacked the main point guard, quickly suffered a wave of three consecutive defeats, and seeing that the team was about to slip to the brink of defeat, DJ Augustin, who had just joined the team this year, stepped up.

Augustin replaced Jennings' position as the main guard, although Augustin was thin and often targeted on the defensive end, but his offense, especially the three-point shot, was extremely reliable, and in the last ten games, the Pistons won five of them, relying on Augustin's average of 20.3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game in these ten games, shooting 46.8% from the field, and 43.1% Shooting 1.9 three-pointers from the field, Monroe also had a decent performance in those 10 games, averaging 17.0 points and 11.7 rebounds per game.

Augustin: Mr. Fan, you see that I have played so well under you this year, but my salary this year is only 3 million, do you think this is reasonable?

Dafan: It doesn't seem reasonable.

Augustine raised his eyebrows: Then what do you see.

Da Fan: "That's easy to do, you wait, brother will surprise you." ”

On February 20, 2015, the Pistons sent Augustin and Kyle Schindler to the Thunder in exchange for Reggie Jackson.

Da Fan: "How about Xiaoding, don't be surprised, happy or not." ”

Augustine: "Your uncle! ”

Reggie Jackson was full of bulls: "Thank goodness I'm finally leaving the Thunder. ”

Kyle Schindler: "The most wronged is Lao Tzu, what's the matter with Lao Tzu!" ”

Da Fan: "Who let you contract this year, you have to have a big contract." ”

Schindler: "The point is that Lao Tzu didn't mention how much money he wanted......"

Da Fan: "Get out, just your defense, I don't have much money!" ”

In this way, Augustin and Schindler, who have played very well this season, were sent to the Thunder in exchange for Reggie Jackson.

Reggie Jackson is the No. 24 rookie in the first round in 2011, the first three and a half years were spent in the Thunder, the first two years were tepid, until last year while the Westbrook season was reimbursed, Jackson played a value, so the mentality floated, non-big contracts are not signed, professional players ask for better development prospects is understandable, but its professional quality is debatable, Jackson wants to leave, and the Thunder management and other players of the Thunder stand on the opposite side, when Jackson knows that he has been replaced, he is really excited.

Starkey is 191 cm tall, belongs to the tall No. 1 position, and is very lethal in his breakthrough, but he is very sticky with the ball, does not like to pass, has average shooting ability, and has average defense...... What's the matter, thought of Prince Ji? The two have infinitely similar styles of play, it's really hard for Drummond, as the cornerstone player that the team focuses on cultivating, it's easy to go a prince, and another lone wolf, Monroe patted his ass and left this summer, what should I do, who can pass the ball to Lao Tzu, is this the fucking cornerstone treatment......

On February 22, Jackson put on the Pistons jersey for the first time to face the Wizards at home, Jackson scored 17 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists on 7-of-18 shooting, the key is that the Pistons also won, Pope, who has been tepid, scored 26 points on 10-of-20 shooting, and Drummond scored 18 points and 16 rebounds on 8-of-11 shooting.

Da Fan: Xiaojie, you can't perform well, how can I give you a big contract like this, or I'll surprise you?

Jackson: Boss, your brother has just arrived, and he is not familiar with it, so please take some time with me.

Dafan: How long will it take you?

JACKSON: Ten is enough.

Dafan: Okay.

From February 24, 2015 to March 14, 2015, the Pistons played ten games without a win......

The Pistons suffered a ten-game losing streak, and this ten-game losing streak can be said to have actually eliminated the Pistons from the playoffs, Jackson averaged 14 points and 6.8 assists per game in ten games, shooting 36.8% from the field and 27.2% from three-point range......

Da Fan: Ma, Lao Tzu has to surprise you, otherwise I won't be able to explain.

Jackson trembled with fear from Dafan's surprise, and the boss gave him another chance.

In the eleventh game against the Grizzlies, the Pistons defeated the Grizzlies 105-95 at home, and Jackson scored 23 points and handed out 20 assists on 10-of-18 shooting, creating the pinnacle of Jackson's career assists, and also became the second player after Isaiah Thomas to score 20 points and 20 assists!

Jackson: How was Mr. Fan's surprise?

Dafan: Your surprise I decided to move back.

In the 2014-2015 season, the turbulent Pistons finished 32-50 and ranked 12th in the East, missing the playoffs.

After Da Fan took charge of the Pistons, although he failed to achieve anything in the first year, he had too many excuses, Smith was cut, Jennings was unexpectedly reimbursed, and Reggie Jackson's run-in with the team can be an excuse for Da Fan, but this season is just a beginning, Da Fan has been gearing up and is starting to prepare for the second season of the Pistons.

On June 19, 2015, the Pistons sent Kaloon Butler to the Bucks in exchange for Eisen Ilyasova, Ilyasova is a typical person who does not remember the team, and at first glance at this person, the average senior old fan knows it, but if you want to ask him where he is playing this year, few people can say, Ilyasova pushed back 20 months, and was traded 5 times, why is he injured all the time, this has to talk about his style of play, Ilyasova is 208 cm, weighs 107 kg, Turkish, This is the height of the standard No. 4 position, but Ilyasova has no back skills at all, the defense is disastrous, the pace is slow, can't keep up, the guard kicks the throttle, the fifth gear breaks, Ilyasova just starts in first gear, but the one-handed shooting technique is a magic weapon, and the range is far beyond the three-point line, so Ilyasova has never been worried about the data, but if he is really put on the court, the effect is not necessarily good.

On June 26, 2015, the Pistons selected Stanley Johnson from the University of Arizona in the draft.

Johnson is 201 cm tall, weighs 111 kg, has an arm span of 212 cm, and has a super long arm span, Johnson's style of play overlaps a bit with Pope, the style of play is comprehensive, the offense and defense are balanced, but the strength is much stronger than Pope, the important thing is that he was born in 1996 and is only 20 years old, with huge potential for rise, the template given by the NBA, the lower limit is Ron Artest, and the upper limit is Kawhi Leonard.

On July 3, 2015, Da Fan signed a 3-year 20 million contract with a big meat shield Aaron Baines, don't look at Baines now bearded and vicious, he was also a small fresh meat back then, tender can pinch out the water, Baines is 208 cm tall, strong body, blocking gun holes, carrying cannons all kinds of dirty work and tiring work, can block and dismantle, can cut in, is a very practical role player.

On the same day, Dafan made a beautiful sale, trading a 2020 second-round pick from the Suns for Marcus Morris, Danny Granger and Reggie Baroque.

Granger used to be the star of the Pacers, the leader of the East for ten years, but he is 33 years old this year, since he underwent knee surgery three years ago, the state is gone, and he has averaged only 10 points per game for three consecutive years, the Pistons have no intention of giving Granger a pension, and then cut Granger, Granger immediately chose to retire, and another player, Reggie Baroque, is the No. 25 rookie in the first round in 2013, and belongs to the same offensive and defensive balance as Pope and Stanley Johnson, but the physical fitness is more average, After watching the water cooler for two years with the Clippers and the Suns, he traded to the Pistons, and when the Pistons were pressed by Pope and Johnson, he never came out, and he watched the water cooler for another two years, until he got rid of Pope and Tobias Harris, and now he is the starting small forward of the Pistons.

At that time, the focus of Dafan's deal was undoubtedly Marcus Morris, mentioning Marcus Morris, we can't fail to mention his twin brother Markieff Morris, these two look exactly the same, when they were in high school, they staged a drama of changing teams for each other and then no one could see it, Big Morris is 208 cm tall, physically strong, serving as a power forward, with a very reliable back singles kung fu, in 2011, the first round of 13 was selected by the Suns, starting from the sixth man, Three seasons became the Sun's iron-clad starter, and Morris Jr. is 206 cm tall, and the shoulder width is narrow, the style of play is very similar to Anthony, he loves mid-range shooting of various difficulties, but the accuracy is far from melon, in 2015, there was a big hit in a comedy "Charlotte Troubles" There is a particularly funny name called "Ma Dongmei", and later the fans gave this nickname to Little Morris in a funny way - Marcus shot...... Boom...... It's gone—Ma Dong isn't ......

But in fact, after several years of experience, Morris Jr. has actually degenerated into a very good rotation player, last season in Aiyang averaged 10.4 points and 4.8 rebounds in 25 minutes per game, shooting 43.4% from the field and 35.8% from three-point range, in terms of value, there is definitely more than one second-round pick, but for many years, the frenzied Suns are crazy about to chase the All-Star power forward who is about to become a free agent, LaMarcus Aldridge, So he took the 4-year 20 million contract of Marcus Morris, which was renewed last year, as a thorn in the flesh, and cleaned up Morris Jr. in an almost free way, but this big bargain was picked up by Dafan.

As an aside, the relationship between the big and small Morris is very good, and when the contract is renewed with the Suns, Morris Jr. has 2000 for 4 years, and Morris Jr. has 32 million for 4 years, after Morris Jr. was traded, Morris Jr. was very dissatisfied, and had a fierce conflict with the Suns coach Hornacek and his teammates at the time, and the season was sent to the Wizards by the Suns before the end of the season, in exchange for DeJuan Blair, Chris Humphries and a 2016 first-round pick, In the end, the first-round pick became the 13th pick in the first round in 2016, and the Suns selected Georges Papayannis.

On July 6, Da Fan officially renewed Reggie Jackson's 5-year 80 million contract. The Pistons gave Jackson a big contract, and Jennings was embarrassed......

Jennings' injury is a torn Achilles tendon in his left ankle, which is the same as a torn cruciate ligament, which can be called an NBA player killer, and many players have suffered this kind of injury and then disappeared from everyone, it is no exaggeration to say that Kobe Bryant suffered the same injury in the same year as Jennings, which indirectly led to the retirement of Lao Ko and gave Jackson a big contract of 80 million, indicating that Da Fan no longer believed that Jennings could return to the top, and then things developed the same as Da Fan and everyone thought, Jennings was only 26 years old at the time, He quickly fell from the top, and after a major injury, the Wanderers team, the former Mr. 55 points, never averaged more than 10 points per game in a season, which is indeed a pity.

Jennings actually has no confidence in his recovery state, close to the comeback, the always rebellious Jennings has repeatedly said that he is willing to accept the role of the bench, on December 29, 2015, the Pistons away to the Knicks, injured and out of action for 11 months Jennings finally ushered in his comeback battle, before Jennings returned, the Pistons played a total of 31 games, 17 wins and 14 wins are very good, the starting five Tigers Reggie Jackson, Pope, Ilyasova, Morris, Drummond, Rotation players Stanley Johnson, Aaron Baines, and veteran point guard Steve Black, who was traded for two water coolers this season, are all very secure, and the Pistons have just suffered a two-game losing streak in this game, and Jennings is back at this time to try to help the team get out of the quagmire of losing streak.

But the result was unsatisfactory, the Pistons lost to the Knicks 96-108, Jennings returned for the first time this season, came off the bench and played 17 minutes off the bench to score 7 points and 4 assists on 2-of-4 shooting, which is also a microcosm of Jennings' season, averaging 6.8 points and 3 assists per game, shooting 37.1%.

On February 17, 2016, Dafan used the surprise he had prepared for Reggie Jackson on Jennings.
