No tanking

There's a segment of fans who want the Pistons to sit Stuckey the rest of the season, to give the Pistons the best chance for a high draft pick.

Kuester doesn't believe in "tanking" the season.

"My goals haven't changed: keep the course and continually work to play hard every single game," Kuester said. "Whoever we put on the court itself, I want them to improve.

"If we end up giving Austin Daye from five to 15 to 20 minutes, we've won with Austin Daye. We've won with DuJuan Summers in the game. I expect these guys to play with the same type of intensity whoever has the minutes."
