Deleterious Posted July 1 Author Posted July 1 I really don't get that for Boston at all. Philly controls some Clippers picks and Boston didn't even get those? Quote
buddha Posted July 1 Posted July 1 everyone in the nba making moves and the pistons fiddle on the edges and trade away their heart and soul of their defense. Quote
Deleterious Posted July 1 Author Posted July 1 Maxey, VJ, Brown, toss Wade in there, probably. That is a nice 4-man group. It's the 5th guy that brings it all crashing back down to reality. Quote

papalawrence Posted July 1 Posted July 1 Wow the landscape of the East is turned on its ear. Washington could be tough, Atlanta, Orlando, Philly, and of course NY and Boston. Detroit could take a step back. Still hoping for Murphy Quote
buddha Posted July 2 Posted July 2 are we still a top 6 team in the east? have the pistons become a play in team? Quote

They are still the only try hard team in the conference. So I could still see them finishing with a high seed but everyone picking them 4th-6th to win the conference when the playoffs start. Quote
Deleterious Posted July 2 Author Posted July 2 If Lebron goes to GSW will they try to bring CP3 out of retirement? Quote

buddha Posted July 2 Posted July 2 you can make an argument that toronto, indiana, philly, new york, miami, and cleveland are better than detroit. orlando might be too of theyre healthy. yes, detroit is a try hard team, but they just lost the biggest try hard player on the team. we better hope to see some real improvement from ausar and duren.

Deleterious Posted July 2 Author Posted July 2 Cleveland and NYK were both better than Detroit this year and finished quite a bit back from Detroit. Toronto and Philly have players they have to baby to keep healthy for the playoffs. I would be shocked if either one of them finished ahead of Detroit. Indiana might finish ahead of Detroit but I'm not real sure about Miami right now. I would say Detroit finishes top 4 pretty easy, probably top 2. I do not think they are one of the two best teams though, not even sure they are top 4 if every other team is healthy when the playoffs start. Quote

People are saying they still have the MLE to spend. I thought they were done, but maybe not. Still holding out for a trade as well. So we'll see. Quote

Deleterious Posted July 2 Author Posted July 2 Brown did it without Tatum for the most part. Would be funny if Tatum couldn't do it without Brown. Quote

They need another PF. Assuming that Duren is back, they only have Collins, Duren, and Reed as rotational PF/C. I'm not expecting much from Smith. Quote
buddha Posted July 2 Posted July 2 with the caveat of "you never know," it seems like duren's market is down to sacramento, who cant do anything other than a sign and trade. would the pistons tell sactown to beat the kessler deal? give me 3 unprotected firsts and i'll think about it? and if we have to take sabonis, make it 4.

Have we read even a single report that Sacramento has engaged Detroit in trade talks? So far it's only been meetings with Duren himself. Quote
Deleterious Posted July 2 Author Posted July 2 So did Boston approach New Orleans about a Brown for TMIII swap? Because TMIII and Herb Jones is far more appealing than PG13 and a pick. Quote
