Deleterious

That old man would still be the best player on about 70% of the teams.

If you or I was his dad, no. Someone will grab him just because Lebron wants to play with him. Worst case you trade him to LA. Best case you get Lebron? I guess?

Attention draft nerds. Cooper Flagg (Montverde Academy) vs AJ Dybantsa (Prolific Prep) tonight at 7:30PM on ESPN2. Those two plus the Boozer kid are considered the three best prospects currently not in the NBA regardless of class. I never imagined we would be in the Flagg mix. But after this year I don't see Detroit getting out of the lottery next season.

There is a reason Gallo played almost all of his minutes at C this year. He doesn't have the athleticism and quickness to play PF anymore. Old and too many injuries. If anyone knocks Wiseman out of the rotation it would be Gallo.

If reporters are right and this was a trade to set up something in the future. I doubt these guys ever see much time here. These guys are trade chips, actually their contracts are. Combined they provide $10m in expiring contracts which could be attractive to a team looking to cut salary. Knowing Weaver and his love of reclamation projects, keep an eye on Patrick Williams from Chicago. His salary? $9.8m.

The only reason I count this trade as a win is because we did not end up with Jordan Poole.

$60m in cap space this summer. Zach LaVine come on down. You're the next contestant on overpaying for marginal players.

He probably received permission first. Weaver: hey Tom. I would like to trade Livers and Bagley Gores: Who are they?

I'm laughing as I watch people describe Gallo. They are describing the player he was 8 years ago. He is a very different player now.

One guess who's son is Gallinaris agent.

They just traded a 1984 Chevette for a 1985 Escort. People are saying it is setting up a future move.

Washington just beat Atlanta by 28 in Atlanta and it looks like all the normal Hawk players were playing.

Yeah. Even if they had assets I wouldn't be comfortable with Weaver making the deal.

There were some less than credible reports that Detroit was interested.

Isn't Monday MLK day? The league usually has matinee games that day. Nobody will watch now.

Missed opportunity not having the Thompson Twins perform last night at halftime.

Down 2 with 6 seconds left and they have the ball.

Looks like Bagley is the C of choice tonight

These teams have beat more winning teams on the road than the Pistons have total wins this year.

Melo had a better argument if he said this right away. Jokic was a nobody and just a 2nd round pick. Saying it now with what he has become and after bringing a title to Denver is silly.
