  1. That is at least a play-in team IMO. Maybe even 5th/6th seed depending on coaching.
  2. Since we were talking about KAT. He will most likely be traded this summer due to the Timberwolves exploding salary situation. The Pistons would be an ideal trade partner since they could take his entire contract without sending any money back. 1st round pick for KAT basically. Not sure how I would feel about that.
  3. NBC Closing In On NBA Package At $2.5B Per Year Unless TNT Increases Offer To $2.8B
  4. Ooooooohh! We could hire a coach that is even worse than Monty!
  5. The Athletic said the police are investigating the Pat Bev incident.
  6. Murray throws multiple items on the court while the game is being played and only gets a $100K fine.
  7. Herb Jones should have.
  8. Look at Minnesota. Ant is the straw that stirs the drink. But Gobert picked 27. McDaniels picked 28. Alexander-Walker picked 17. Reid was undrafted. All play a huge role in the teams success. None were even lottery picks.
  9. The NBA needs to find a way to shorten the regular season and extend the playoffs.
  10. Competent people running your organization will always trump draft picks and/or cap space.
  11. Down 20 at home with the opponents DPOY not playing and your star guard is about to be suspended a game for throwing something on the floor. Denver is cooked.
  12. Not sure what you mean by nobody to spend it on They lost over 80% of their games. If a player was in another teams top 7 or 8 man rotation, they are better than most players on the Pistons roster. That means pretty much every free agent with a pulse is worth spending on for Detroit. What is wrong with out draft assets? We have all of our first round picks except maybe the one we have to send to NY. And as bad as Detroit is, there is a real chance that turns into two second round picks and we never lose a 1st. We will also be in the Flagg/Bailey mix next year, along with Dylan Harper who is another excellent prospect. Bad team with most of its first round picks = a great place for a talented GM. Bottom line, a competent GM/President would love to come here. Star player in place. Draft capital. Cap space. No bad contracts to unwind. Nothing to tear down. An almost blank slate. Owner who is more than willing to spend. Anyone with talent would love that.
  13. Now out. His first kid was just born.
  14. "Add this item to your cart to view the price." How about you **** off. You could pay me $100 to take the item and I still wouldn't do business with you.
  15. I think the Detroit job is pretty attractive. You already have your young star in place with Cade. You have an owner who wants to win but just doesn't know how. He also gives his people a very long leash, so not a ton of pressure to win now. He also is more than willing to spend money. Worst case scenario, we are going to lose a first round pick to NY. But we have all of our other first round picks going forward. Tons of cap space and as of yet no future salary issues on the horizon. The one downside is maybe Gores likes to stick his nose in a bit too much. But a competent GM can stop that.
  16. ESPN lists Gobert as questionable for tonight. Reason listed is personal reasons.
  17. He was asked about Butler trolling the Celtics during their series. He also was asked about a Butler extension. He said they would have to think a long time about that. He said its hard to do for a guy not available every night.
  18. Hammond is 70 and recently moved to a senior advisor role for the Magic. I doubt he wants the grind of being in charge at his age. I am shocked Tim Connelly is available, but I keep seeing his name pop up occasionally. He would be my first pick of names mentioned. GM of the Nuggets from 2013-22 and now GM of the Timberwolves. I would still be blowing up Bob Myers phone. But since his name is never mentioned I think I better give up on that one.
