Yes for the Pistons he is.


were he released? And picked up by pistons, or how im gonna translate this?

I would take him over everyone else mentioned in this thread

Yup. I wouldn't though - undersized, can't shoot 3s and fts, rebound or block shots - in other words entirely unplayable in the POs and there's a reason he got cut by the Thunder and signed by the Pistons and not the Bucks or Celtics.

Yeah I agree with those who mentioned Omoruyi. He wont make a playoff roster. He wont break the top 12 spots too. Mavs dont need a quick fix now. The problems are lack of starter quality players outside of Luka Green and Kyrie. So Omoruyi doesnt fix any of that. It will be addressed in the summer.

Gotta sign Kyrie asap and then use him to maybe finally attract some decent players that can make a difference. If they dick him around in the summer we're screwed.

im keeping my expectations low to avoid disappointment with the front office. But if they manage to sign and trade Wood for Brook Lopez, I'd be happy if they ended the offseason right there.
