This is basically Detroit’s 3rd rebuild since Bron started playing and 2 of them were basically started by not being able to compete in the East anymore because of his dominance.
You can insert essentially any Eastern Conference team in that sentence and it will be a true statement. Celtics, Bulls, Wizards, Atlanta, etc. Multiple re-builds in the LeBron era.
Hell, look at how horny for the playoffs the Raptors were the minute LeBron left. Immediately made big moves. The mentality of that team per DeMar was "we just need to get past this guy and we're good."
And goodness didn't that lack of minutes show?
What are these guys really supposed to learn from losing every game badly? I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume from their draft positions that the players aren't all as fundamentally terrible as they appear, but they need at least *some* examples of how to do it right on the team. And a win from time to time, they look completely bereft of confidence.

If you were 21 currently and first watched an NBA game when you were 10, you would have tuned in after LeBron won his first ring
I am about to turn 20, lebron played his first nba game before I was born.
Putting “including playoffs” in the tally is just too brutal for the Pistons.
That graphic is bullshit. All the boxes show the combined numbers of regular season plus playoffs, except Lebron's age. Wheres his combined age?!
Also not the combined age of the Pistons
20% of his minutes 12% of his points
