4/25/26 1:00PM Rd1 Gm3 Pistons 1-1 @ Magic 1-1

As far as how much to pay him. I think I heard recently that the average starter makes 22M. Duren is better than the average starter. I think 25M is a good floor. I'd be willing to go as high 30M. You could maybe convince me to swallow 35M. Maybe. I'm not touch anything near 40M or more.

He's an RFA. If the Pistons are smart, they'll wait and see what offers he gets on the market. I doubt he'll get many because the rules are really stacked against RFA's and nobody wants to tie up their cap space when we can match anything they offer. The Pistons hold all the cards, so why bid against yourself?

DEN-MIN and NYK-ATL will play their 4th game today.  Same day we play our third.

I agree with all that is said but sadly there’s a better chance of winning Powerball and then being hit by lightning twice on the way to pick up the money than there is of the Pistons not giving Duren the huge contract.   It’s just a matter of how much they give him.  

[Deleterious]

Bane must love seeing Robinson on him instead of Thompson

[Deleterious]

Duren looked afraid on that missed layup, timid. 

[Deleterious]

Thompson just creating extra possessions 

[Betrayer]

Stupid foul by Robinson. 

[Betrayer]

Lob city 

[Betrayer]

Good response. Ausar’s fingerprints all over that. 

[buddha]

ausar's been the best player on the floor.

duren doing what duren does: rim running.

[Deleterious]

Terrible pass from Thompson

[Deleterious]

LeVert in. Bet the Orlando over for the quarter.

[Deleterious]

Cade roasts Banchero again

[buddha]

please bench caris lavert.

[Deleterious]

Cade already has 4 turnovers

[Betrayer]

Turnovers killing this team. Could be up 5 easily. 
 

Here we go again with JB playing every guy on the team. What happened to that regular season rotation where Tobias comes out for Stew while JD is still in there? We finally have a matchup where we need two bigs and JB goes small all series instead.

[Deleterious]

Duren with the 5 footer that went over the backboard 

[Betrayer]

What is that shot, Duren?

c’mon JB. We need one of Cade or Ausar on the court at all times. Wake up!

[Betrayer]

Why are Stew’s minutes being so limited?

[Deleterious]

Huerter has been adequate on defense. It's his offense that is struggling

[Betrayer]

Good cut. They’re overplaying everything. Cuts will be there all day. 

[Betrayer]

Duren forcing so hard.

Stop helping off Bane. He's their only three point threat. Just stay home

[Betrayer]

Can we stop leaving Bane?

Carter outplaying Duren again.
