Tom Gores speaks to Detroit media about Frank, Dumars

On Sunday, the New York Daily News reported that Tom Gores has had enough of Lawrence Frank and Joe Dumars. I immediately thought the same thing as Mike Payne in his analysis: I'll believe it when I see it.

While we don't yet have the full story, Twitter is flooded with information confirming earlier reports. Tom Gores isn't happy with how the season played out.

We'll have more on this as we get more details. For now, here's a summary of what the beat writers are saying:

We've been talking quite a bit about Tom Gores the Pistons owner over the last few days. The fact that he's stating publicly that he's willing to spend to make the team better is a very. good. thing.

If I'm missing anything, sound off in the comments.
