Woj says we're trying to move Meeks

Piston's get Paul George

Pacer's get:
KCP
Tobias Harris
Stanley Johnson
2017 1st
2018 2nd
2019 1st

DO IT! DO IT!

Is there a way to swap KCP and Tobias for Boban and, like, Gbinije or something?

lemme go get SVG and Bird on the horn. brb

They said, NO!

srsly, Harris is about the only one I don't want to trade. Not sure what late 1st rounders have been brining lately.

Failed to add Monta Ellis to our get.

Way too much

Wondering if I'm overvaluing George, cuz I don't think what we're giving up is too much for one of the top players in the league. George is a top 10-15 scorer in the league? Top 25 player overall in the league? At least that's what I'm thinking. So giving up KCP who is about to be overpaid, SJ who is struggling doesn't bother me. Harris is a good solid player, but not at George's level. Not sure how to value the draft picks.

Too much by like double.

How are we going to get over the slightly better than .500 winning % hump? Wait and see if we get lucky on one of our 1st rounders? That might take a while. Hopefully Dre will still be around.

We are going to have to overpay a little bit to get a SS here. I realize y'all think that is a 'way ovepay'. Maybe George isn't as good as I think he is. Not sure. But I'd still do it or ask for a Pacer 1st back?

Everyone on the team is like 25.

Everyone on the team is like 25.
And to be clear, no, I don't think as-is we have the pieces to actually win the whole thing....but need to le tthe team develop not blow it up. They've been pretty successful for how young they are.

And I think you're overvaluing George...yes, he'd probably be the best player on the Pistons but I don't think he's significantly better than players we already have....He's a 3rd tier star.

Just a lil twitter fun, John Wall and Henson

Seems to me that we have some good contracts. Harris and MM come to mind that produce and have good value for their contracts. You need those guys, good contracts who produce, to counter the max guys. Need rookie contracts too.

I'm not sure our max guys are all that. I'd take Dre 99 times out of 100 over RJ. But even Dre has pimples. He rebounds and can finish the lob great. But motor is huge question. Does he show up every night? FT shooting isn't a question; its been answered, he sucks. Low post offensive game? Not sure. I don't even want to get into RJ. I'm just not a fan. Not saying he doesn't get hot. I just don't get his game half the time.

Ok, off to the refrigerator. Pkshhh!

Pretend trade from DBB

http://www.detroitbadboys.com/2017/1/5/14165630/a-fake-trade-for-the-pistons-real-issues-detroit-pistons-denver-nuggets-tobias-harris

I would probably do that with the caveat that I can't remember the last time i saw Gallinari play.

THe free throw thing has been bothering me big time, the disparity has been insane at times, and a lot of the calls against us are some really touchy stuff that's not getting called both ways.

Bad deal. Tobias is maybe our best player, younger, and locked up for less than what you'd have to pay Gallo, IF you can re-sign him.

Harris is.

But he can't be our best player because we didn't trade much for him. He didn't come at a steep price, so he can't be because we have all these maxed out super stars like Dre who can't shoot FTs and RJ who we overhype every game. /s

Hearing rumors about Reggie Jackson for Ricky Rubio.

^ Honestly thought might've been a Gooshill thing. lol

Some dude on Bleacher Report put out a three team trade idea that had us sending Reggie to the Magic and getting back Hezonja from ORL and Lou Williams from the Fakers.

FAKE NEWS!

Seems like lots of smoke around Pistons this year. Guessing "it" might "happen".

<--- This http://a.espncdn.com/i/espn/teamlogos/lrg/trans/insider_logo.gif right here is now hearing Reggie for Augustin and Jeff Green.

Jeff Green makes me wanna hurl, even if it's an expiring.

Get the feeling Dre will be gone, you guys.

What are your sources saying?

Get the feeling that they might trade the whole team.

I'll almost be disappointed if we don't do anything now

Well today was uneventful

yawn

All that hype and this is what we got.

Today is THE MASTER (2012, dir. Paul Thomas Anderson) of trade deadlines.

Marc Stein sez Pistons looking to trade #12 pick for a "win-now" veteran. What, exactly, the veteran is supposed to help the Pistons win is still a mystery.

3P shooting would be a fine start.

My source, which is definitely not a tweet quoting Brian Windhorst, is telling me that the Clippers and Pistons have discussed a DeAndre Jordan-for-Andre Drummond swap.

Hearing rumors of a Reggie Jackson trade to New Orleans for E'Twaun Moore and Alexis Ajinca, reportedly because Reggie's name is too easy to spell.

BOOM

Saw a twitter post about us possibly trading Leuer for Ilyasova. Meh.

J. Okafor and Stauskas for Leuererer works in the trade machine, lolz.

RJ for Eric Bledsoe and Pistons might also give up a 1st.

Some other site said Suns trying to find team to take RJ. lols
I never liked RJ, but didn't think he was that bad. Suns want to move EB for a Pistons 1st and whatever they get back from RJ, I guess.

Not sure who I trust less to play a full season -- RJ or Bledsoe

I don't know anything about Bledsoe. Often injured Mxy?
Also, saw this first rumored Oct 24th? lol I guess I've been out of touch.

Just read a rumor that we're interested in Mirotic

That’s erotic.

Yeah, I checked the box score and was pretty surprised.

Where does Pistons 2020 trade stuff go?

So Woj has Pistons on short list for acquiring Jimmy Butler.

Trying to figure out what we’d be giving up that they would take.

Don’t think they’d take Reggie and Stanley but the salaries work. Would be hot!

Ish/Calderon
Butler/Kennard
Bullock/GR III
Blake/Hank
Drummond/Zaza

We could work with that

He'd actually re-sign here?

Per the report, several teams are willing to trade for Butler without an assurance he would re-sign with them in the summer of 2019.

Alright then

One of my sources is telling me the Spurs are possibly interested in making a deal for Stanley.

Will the Spurs give us the 61st pick of the draft, or the 62nd?

He's the new Stuckey.

He's the new Stuckey.

Stanley can only dream of having a career FG pct of 42%

Stuckey and Stanley both suffer from bad shot selection, but Stuckey has less-bad mechanics and an actual game near the basket.

So the rumor du jour is Conley to Pistons for Reggie Jax, a protected 1st and "a young wing"? Stanley doesn't make enough unless another salary is included? Galloway and Brown or Khyri instead?

Ellis mentions Kennard as a possible inclusion.

Conley + Gasol for Andre + Jackson + Stanley + Ellenson?

Conley + Gasol for Andre + Jackson + Stanley + Ellenson?
Andre better fetch more than that. I'd do Reggie and the first for Conley (obvi).

Andre, for all his faults, isn't the big problem here.
For someone clearly better, sure we trade for him.
But, Gasol ain't it.

Gotta get that 8 seed so the Bucks can finally get a playoff series win over us

WOTS is that :we: might bring Tolly back

WOTS is that :we: might bring Tolly back

We fucking better.

And y'all doubted Tom Gores.

Thank God we aren't getting Conley.

Bullock + Stanley for Svi, Thon Maker, Wayne Ellington, 2nd rounder esentially

Still no Tolly :(

So fucking bummed about that, Vinny.

Still no Tolly :(

BUYOUT MARKET

Gores' plan pretty much seems to be figuring out ways to re-acquire Tolly each year.

My trusted sources are telling me that there have been rumors about potential interest from the Pistons in possibly offering to trade for Bradley Beal. But you didn't hear it from me, okay?

^

Can Langston Galloway, Bruce Brown and four 2nd round picks get it done?

My boys are telling me that Pistons looking to trade Luke Kennard to Phoenix for a first.

Oobi and I share some of the same sources. I can confirm.

^ hearing that things are at an impasse with Phx.

I’ll let you know if things rekindle.

It's in the shitter. Goodshill makes better rumors than that crap.



(No offense Oobs)

'Sokay.

Drummond traded for scraps

Somebody out there is excited to have Brandon Knight back.

Ugh. Click.

Oh man, with all this capspace this offseason I cannot wait to see how it is spent.

We lost Tim Frazier, guys!

Tony Snell v2.0 for the something-that-is-not-a-win!

D.Rose trade rumors heating up again. I’m seeing Knicks (Thibs) and Clips.

He's awful. Please give us draft picks.

Allegedly going to Knicks for Dennis Smith Jr and a 2nd ...

It Happened.

We should've gotten a first.

Byesvi!

Folks are digging this deal. Weaver for ROY!

The main thing is I think we would have had to pay Svi next year, not sure about the new guy. Might be same. Top flight analysis!

We're less likely to overpay Hamidou, and he's improved every year. Assuming he doesn't have chronic injury, we're looking at paying bench player $ for a solid bench player, or maybe more. With Svi, someone's gonna take a gamble, and we're likely to get less in S+T.
