Let's be honest: the team's window had closed.
With the group we had 2 or 3 titles were possible, but they fucked it up.
Once it became obvious we weren't gonna win the whole thing I was/am all in favour of rebuilding. IMO there is no point being a Top 4 team in the East year after year if you have no realistic shot at winning the title.
So this trade (or one very similar) had to happen. I might not like where the Pistons are now or where they are likely heading (team will probably get worse before it gets better) but such is life.
At least we got to enjoy a fairly long run near the top.
