    Duren's deal should be determined in part on how he does in the playoffs. when teams play defense and things matter. can he score without cade feeding him easy baskets? can he get rebounds and put backs when the other team's bigs are trying for rebounds on every possession? can he be a focal point when cade sits? can he defend the paint? if he cant - and they think he wont develop any further - then they'd be crazy to pay him. they may have already backed themselves into a corner so it might not even matter. what's the alternative? could they even do a sign and trade?

    he's playing against the equivalent of a Q league team, he better look good.

    i find it hilarious that people really thought scottie barnes was better than cade cunningham.

    tigers traded by the tigers dont make the choice to leave. i dont know why youre arguing with me about how i feel about players who used to play for the teams i follow. its not a logic problem, its who i have emotional ties to.

    Does verlander start opening day? 😉

    that's no longer a michigan player. you have forfeited your citizenship.

    i'll always root for verlander. i couldnt care less about scherzer. if skubal leaves i will still root for him. like you said, homegrown. i feel the same way about stafford although i get people dont feel the same way. i always root for michigan players once they make the pros too.

    smart bulls fans were initially excited about ivey, but then they looked at the tape...and saw the contract...and were like "why didnt we just re-sign coby white?"

    they should still get fined.

    stew probably gets 8-10. maybe 5 if he's lucky. he left the bench, he's a repeat offender, and he's not famous on a glamour team like draymond. bridges should be kicked out of the league because he beats more than jusy guys on a basketball floor. he'll probably get a game. duren will get 2 or 3. diabete should get the same.
  14. buddha
    yes.
  15. buddha
    3? he'll be lucky to just get 3.

    michigan pays pretty well.

    does that mean the pistons have a team option for NEXT year?

    sam darnold is the only reason the pats are in this game.
  19. buddha
    ha! good job, bad bunny. rub it in his orange face.

    waiting for collinsworth to tell me those horrible throws by darnold are actually good plays.

    dont really care about the super bowl, although the pats' easy schedule is offensive so i hope seattle wins.

    he did it against illinois too, totally stopped short and intentionally tripped an illinois player who was running the other way. illinois coach was pissed. he's a dirty player and izzo does his usual hand wringing bull**** but plays the kid anyway because izzo is as big of a hypocrite as any college coach in america.

    Another thought, all these rule changes and tweaks have just made tanking worse. if a team could tank and get a superstar, they would get better and gradually rise in the standings. but when you tweak the lottery and the worst teams keep getting screwed (like the pistons did), they keep being mired in that desperate attempt to get a superstar player. ultimately, as long as there is a draft and no relegation there will be tanking.
  24. buddha
    relegation would stop it, but we dont do that here. you could take away ping pong balls if you lose x amount of games. dropping protections might help on the margins, mandate that you can only protect top 2 or something like that. but that will hinder trades and no one wants that to happen. the ultimate reason is the draft, you get rewarded for losing. and the draft has become so ingrained in sporting culture here that it isnt going anywhere. i thought the play-in tournament was supposed to be a temporary covid year thing and now they've made it permanent.
  25. buddha
    only way you stop it is to get rid of the draft or completely randomize it.
