How the Detroit Pistons roster timeline game works

Pistons fill every slot in this deck, ordered by the year each player first joined the franchise. Nearly all cards print a position under the name. One player is placed before you start, with his year in view. You then fit each new card into a gap: before, between or after the others. Correct means the year shows; incorrect means the player still moves to his true place and you lose one of three lives.

Fort Wayne came first: the oldest cards are from the days before Detroit. Then the deck runs through the lean early Detroit years, the Bad Boys teams, the defense-first contenders that came later and the long rebuild since. Positions are spread evenly, so they won't steer you much. Bench players from the strong eras tend to get placed far from where they belong.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
