Order of the Blazing Horse

Highlighting the GOATmentator Beau Estes

Mickey and Harry are joined by renowned (formerly of NBA TV) GOATmentator Beau Estes (@nbabeau), covering his career as the voice you all know as the Top 10 rhyme scheme fiend. They talk his career, his view on the Pistons, and end on a draft of the best names in the NBA to riff and rhyme with.

Pistons Power (Forward) Hour

Mickey and Harry drink the kool-aid (literally) as they perform a power hour, taking a shot and bringing up a new point every minute. They spend a lot of time talking power forward/the 4 spot, but they cover a lot more of what Detroit can expect from their squad.

Wet Hot Detroit Summer League

Grab your glizzies and pop on those tank tops, because the boys of Summer League are ballin out and Harry and Mickey are here to talk about it. They discuss the performances of Ron Holland II, Daniss Jenkins, Chaz Lanier, Bobi Klintman, and Tolu Smith, as well as the comments from Trajan Langdon and J.B. Bickerstaff. And, for the first time ever, the fellas are here to talk Pistons basketball from the same location WHAT?!

Offseason Poetry ft Mitchell Nobis

Mickey and Harry welcome poet and Pistons fan Mitchell Nobis to the Order to share his feelings about the team and some of his prose on the pros (dare we hint at a Ben Wallace reference?). They talk what they'd like to see from Cade Cunningham, Jaden Ivey, Jalen (Downtown?) Duren, Ausar Thompson, and Ron Holland, discuss the new pick ups, and play a game of "Who You Talkin 'Bout, Reddit?" with the new acquisitions.

Malik Beasley Maybe Betting Fallout

It was reported that Malik Beasley is under investigation by the U.S. District Attorney's office on allegations of gambling related to prop bets and the NBA (from during his 2023-24 season with the Bucks). Harry and Mickey hop on to discuss the ramifications of this and how it effects Malik and the team moving forward.

A Laz Jackson Off-Season in Detroit

The Order welcomes Laz Jackson (@lazchance) to the show and we grill him about what he would do if he was in Trajan Langdon's shoes. We talk all the trades, the draft, the state of the East, and close on a game of 2 Truths & a Lie.

The Future of the Four in Detroit

Tobias Harris is on an expiring contract he ain't gettin any younger. His season last year with Detroit was a breath of fresh air and much needed, but the Pistons have to be wondering who will be starting in 2026 and possibly 2025. Harry and Mickey are, too, and they take this offseason opportunity to explore possible candidates to fill the four for the future.

The Last Unicorn ft Bryce Simon

Mickey and Harry welcome back Bryce Simon (@MotorCityHoops) to the show to discuss the future of the 5 position in Detroit. With rumors that the Pistons are interested in stretch 5 free agents Myles Turner and Naz Reid, the Order goes from mystical to mythical on their hunt for the Last Unicorn. They take a look at how "real" Turner and Reid winding up in Detroit is, then explore other avenues in the draft (Maxime Raynaud), in FA (Brook Lopez), in a trade (Domantis Sabonis), and ask themselves, "is it even worth it when you've got a 21 year old Jalen Duren here at home???" To close, they play a game of NIMBY or YIMBY where the fellas suggest items for Bryce’s back yard and he gives the yay or nay

Big News and Stretch Bigs ft Doug Berns

Harry and Mickey are once again joined by friend of the pod, New York Knicks super fan, and musical/comedy genius: Doug “Duglust” Berns! The trio discusses the firing of Tom Thibodeau and the virtues of stretch bigs before playing a round of everyone’s favorite game: Who You Talkin’ ‘Bout, Reddit?

A Tale of Two Off-Seasons

Harry and Mickey catch up on the Eastern and Western Conference Finals before going over growth areas for the Pistons’ young core. Then they play a game called “I’ll Show You My Offseason If You Show Me Yours” where they compare notes on what moves they’d make to help Detroit come back bigger, badder, and better.
