Off the top of my head:
Isiah
Dumars
Lanier
Bing
Ben Wallace
Grant Hill
Yardley
Laimbeer
Billups
Rodman

Re: 10 Greatest Pistons
Clearly, Korleone Young has to top this list... o.O
I kid, of course. Aguirre could stand to be on this list, I guess but in favor of whom? Yardley, maybe?

The greatest Pistons
IMO, here are the 10 greatest players in the history of the Fort Wayne/Detroit Pistons in order:
1.) Isiah Thomas
2.) Bob Lanier
3.) Dave Bing
4.) Grant Hill
5.) Joe Dumars
6.) Dave DeBusschere
7.) Dennis Rodman
8.) Bailey Howell
9.) Ben Wallace
10.) George Yardley
Some people may be surprised that I have Grant Hill listed this high, but people forget he was arguably the best small forward in the NBA from the 1995-96 season until he shattered his ankle in the 2000 playoffs. Hill was a triple-double machine who could play some quality defense.

Seconded, Grant Hill WAS the Pistons in those years.
