ETuan Moore is being “rested” tonight as well lol. So that’s Mirotic, Randle, Payton, and Moore all out. They can stop pretending now.

I stated earlier before the Gasol rumor happened that acquiring Mirotic and Randle would be a serious upgrade for say...Meyers and ET or Meyers and Mo....Randle has really impressed me this season
 
Breaking News: Lillard ask to be traded to the Lakers to join Lebron, Klay and AD
 
This Marc Gasol makes no sense to me unless..

You are trading nurk and CJ for AD then somehow getting gasol with other parts.........
 
Remember when we got Nurk from Denver. Everything we were aggressive for Okfor that year and we got Nurk instead. It looks like smoke screens by Olshey. If we trade it be someone that we don't no nothing about.
 
I enjoy the trade deadline stuff...was great when we got Nurk at the deadline. I don't care that much for Trade Machine stuff that is all conjured up ..but when the sports media or Woj break a trade or interest story....I'll enjoy it....I feel the same about the draft....I'll pay attention more to the guys we bring in to work out or target than who fans think is the better choice...the rest is the Blurry Melo with extra whatever fodder
 
I dunno how legit this is:



Tired of inconsistency and subpar efforts, Blake Griffin has asked the Detroit Pistons to trade him as soon as possible, as he’s allegedly lost all faith in Dwane Casey’s project, according to reports.
Let’s take a look at his top possible destinations.
Portland Trail Blazers
The Portland Trail Blazers are also a star shy of being Championship bound, and Blake Griffin would be a nice fit next to Jusuf Nurkic as they try and hold on to the 4th seed in the Western Conference. Also, the Pistons could get some young assets in return like Zach Collins and Jake Layman to go along with Al-Farouq Aminu, Evan Turner and a future 1st round pick, so it ’s a win-win scenario for everybody involved.

Where is CJ in that deal? We can offer CJ without sacrificing our bench. Because that's a huge load in return for Griffin.

Hey, we'd still have Curry, Stauskas, and Leonard!

But seriously, with Dame/CJ/Blake/Nurk all in the starting lineup, how much bench production would we really need?

But CJ is a big enough piece to offer that we don't have to sell (most of) our bench. Because we need all the bench we can get.

Do we? Again, if we add Blake to the starting lineup, how much bench do we need?

Still, I agree that the Pistons would probably need CJ to be included in order for them to be willing to deal Blake to us.

That said, how would you formulate the CJ+?? for Blake trade offer?

Oh trust me, we need a bench.

As for what trade I would offer: CJ, Turner, and either Zach or Leonard and a 1st round pick. That leaves us with enough bench to keep things going in a game, while still offering the Pistons a very good deal.

And if we're keeping Moe, that fucking knee of his needs to heal. That's the one dark spot I can see in all of this.

So, Turner/Zach/Jake/Chief is an overpay, but CJ/Turner/Zach is good? Am I reading that right?

So essentially, you're saying that Jake/Chief are worth more to this team than CJ is? Am I misinterpreting here?

They add depth. That is one of our biggest strengths this season. Layman and Curry stepping up, for instance, has been a huge blessing. Don't tell me you don't see this.

CJ is one guy. Curry can step up in his place. And in case you haven't noticed, CJ needs his own team. I think it's become quite apparent, in fact.

No argument that Curry and Layman have been significant boons to the team. But one of the reasons that is necessary is because of the generally weak production we get from our starting forward spots. If we were to trade for Blake, one would presume that that weakness would instantly become a strength. And of course, Curry would still remain on the squad as a second-unit gunner.

I don't disagree that CJ would better off as the lead guard on his own team. I do disagree, however, that were the Blazers to trade for Blake, the team would be better off keeping Layman and Aminu instead of CJ.

Sooooo....we have a weakness at Forward, and you don't want depth at that position? Am I reading that correctly?

I guess........give them CJ, Moe, Turner, Zach or Leonard and a First then. It's not like Moe can stay healthy anyways. Layman is younger and healthier.

I didn't really mean it like that. Just meant if the trade ideas are that bad you could try to avoid them, was merely a suggestion. You don't really complain about it that much that I've seen anyways.
