Sure it is. You must be really proud of yourself.

Congrats ImHeisenberg , you are a very good poster here. I always look forward to seeing what you have to say. There are a few other people who really always stand out to me that I've noticed since joining, like regulars, maybe it's just your avatar

Thanks for bringing that to my attention. I never click into those, and I would have been none the wiser.
Nice play, Ghost.

Meanwhile, SVG still wants to win as many games as possible. Hopefully we just pull a Cleveland and jump from our usual spot of 6 to 9 and grab the top pick.
Wolves are injured right now. They'll win more games when Rubio comes back

Talk about spinning in circles, we already had a more experienced Okafor on the roster & we are letting him walk to keep Josh smith.
Not surprisingly most haven't watched Okafor play obviously lol
I feel like this team & a bunch of their fans are stuck in a time warp. How is all this stuff this hard to comprehend?

There is nothing any fan can do to keep Monroe with the Pistons. He's most likey to jump on the first plane out of Detroit.
I've see enough of Okafor... at the Gauntlet and Elite Tournaments, Duke games... He'll work out just fine at replacing Moose and/or Drummond.

Re: Winning The Lottery: Drummond or Okafor?
^You can never say that for certain. There is no 100%, sure-fire way to know whether or not a prospect will meet the expectations. Evan Turner, for example, looked even better than Okafor does right now the year that he declared (put up an extremely efficient 20/9/6 on the season). The consensus was that he was a future star, a guy that you could run your offense through. Flash forward a few years and he hasn't met expectations. Same is true for OJ Mayo and Michael Beasley.
Okafor has a really advanced skill set, but it's very much possible that he doesn't become the all star bigman that people expect.

Congrats ImHeisenberg....Your draft stock is rising. Pistons will select you AND trade Andre Drummond.
Tom Gores' Securus faced a class action lawsuit in 2024. The company engaged in a "quid pro quo kickback scheme" with county jails in Michigan which banned in-person visits in order to maximize revenue from voice and video calls.

Slight difference between AAU even college bball & the nba. We know nothing about how he will be at the next level.
We already know Monroe & Drummond are studs in the NBA.

I figured you were going to sell high and trade me to the Kings board for future considerations.
