Fraudulent #1 seed

I’m sorry

But it’s good

It’ll force Detroit to actually address needs

They did themselves a massive disservice standing pat at the trade deadline

You keep trying to take Lauri off of the Jazz like they arent trying to compete next season and Im not sure why

 

[southsil4lil]

This is why overpaying Jalen Duren would be a massive mistake

Big time shot by Franz

 

[southsil4lil]

Cade didnt need to take that

It’s just the easiest thing I could do without thinking

Big bad Jalen Duren that the Heat would do nothing against because he’s so dominant?

Jazz arent in asset acquisition mode anymore, good chance they're better than Detroit next year

Michael Porter Jr is more realistic but Brooklyn has no incentive to really be bad next year since they owe us their unprotected picks


Pistons should be able to find someone though but idk how much confidence I have in Trajan Langdon to build this team

I hope we can find a sign and trade

I mean if you can keep him without overpaying him thats fine....but you have to really start looking at you're locking yourself into as far as the core of your team

Pistons number 1 objective has to be identifying a number 2 option for Cade

I’m out on Duren. Nigga the most brolic nigga on the court, but can’t grab a fucking board. It’s easier to win with a serviceable 5 on a reasonable contract. Not paying Duren anything over 35 mil.

Pistons fucked up not trying to upgrade the team during deadline .

Especially getting another another spring consideration

Shout out the Magic.

At this point I'm just happy it ain't just the Knicks. Lmao.

Knicks gonna be the 3rd most embarrassing story at this rate.

 

[O.G.]

Detroit letting me down.
