Hey, it's not a big deal lol. Most people were either cautiously optimistic or shaking their heads when we made those FA moves last summer.jaredtyshaf wrote:What dumbass posted this garbage?
I would say you fall somewhere in the cautiously optimistic spectrum. Haha.

You could've always just saved face by saying, "Detroit could end up with the 3rd pick!"

Re: Detroit could end up the 3rd seed!
if you guys somehow resigned calderon, no doubt in my mind your situation would be much better. watching jennings operate makes me cringe.

Calderon is obviously light years better than Jennings but nothing would matter if Josh Smith was still on this team.

Re: Detroit could end up the 3rd seed!
I find it hilarious that people lol'd when I suggested we retain Calderon and chase Korver or Redick in free agency.
Imagine Dre, Monroe, Korver, KCP and Calderon on the floor.
Our D would still be terrible but offensively we'd be so much better.
The longer the season goes the more I grow to dislike Joe...and I don't want it to end like that!

Knight, Stuckey, Middleton, CV & Jorts would have been my bench. Play them as much as you need/want to increase trade value!

Yeah but you have to remember that Josh is a winner and took Atlanta to the Playoffs several times. It's Monroe, not Josh that needs to go and he's our second best asset. He doesn't have the fire to win right now and that's enough for me to kick him out.
This is what I think will happen with Monroe.
If we re-sign him to whatever contract, he won't change the way he plays. His effort will be the same as he probably views this team as a joke.
If we trade him, I can see him trying harder on another team which is gonna piss me off.

Yeah smith definitely wasn't the third option who never made an all star team while he played with 2 all stars.

What so he wasn't a major contributor to guarding Lebron. Also, defense wins championships and only winners play defense because it's all effort and personal.

He played Lebron in the post season like 7 years ago & Lebron averaged 34, 8 & 6 in that series.
Quit embarrassing yourself.

So you'd rather keep Monroe
