eating crow is part of the fun or is it feeding crow????

Sure,but it starts to sound like girls fighting over what the best shampoo is.

Good ass freaking win Pistons! My young guy Jennings was on fire tonight. Keep playing tough man, you got a couple of haters trying to jump on your bandwagon. 8-)

Now beat the 76ers by 20 points tomorrow and make it official.

IDK why people think trading for a legit SF is an option lol.
Outside of Greg Monroe, who on this roster can we trade? Singler and Jerebko? lol. That's not going to net much of a return.
And I don't really think trading Greg is an option, and would just be a lateral move as we are so thin upfront.

It is most likely this roster until the end of the season.

He's not trolling. He's right. Jackattaq posted some of the most outrageous stuff in the thread about Drummond getting called out.

This just exemplifies how this board overreacts and has mood swings on a daily basis.

I trashed him like no other on this site even having battles with you about it. But like I always say I want this guys to succeed and don't get off on failure. These are all my guys and if I don't like something they're doing I'm not afraid to voice it. I seriously never thought I would find myself liking Jennings though because I absolutely despised him but he's really starting to figure it out now besides for a few bone head shots still here and there but that will probably improve as well soon at the rate he is changing his game as a team player and leader.



Jennings has completely flip the script on me soley cuz he's playing effective defense. I didn't think he could, but for the most part he stays in front of his guy and gets quite of bit of steals

While I don't see a trade on thr horizon I can see why people think a trade is possible:

Jerebko, Butler, Tolliver, Singler - all expiring deals, all capable role players for a contender

Would a contender give us a legit starting SF in return? I'll say NO but I'm not gonna kill dudes that post the trades

If a team trades a guy for expirings, it means they don't think he's worth his contract. I'd rather not get tied in long term to a sizeable contract for a mediocre/sliding kind of guy. We've got a deep, energetic, winning team with chemistry. Let's leave it alone.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

i was about to say, if Spurs don't think they can win with Daye, looks like he should go to china. I actually think Daye would fit what SVG is looking for, however i don't think Defensively he could keep up

Or it means they have payroll issues lol

I'm not in favour of making a trade. I don't think there is anything out there that moves the needle enough to make the risk worth it....

BUT...as I said: other people are free to post any trades they wish. I'm not gonna hate on them

I agree with you. I did say go to bed and dream of a trade, since that's what it will take to make it happen this season. Much more likely a mid-level free agent in the offseason.

don't know if anyone cares at this point, but dre got warned for flopping:

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond has received a warning from the NBA for violating the league's anti-flopping rule on a crucial last-minute play against Indiana on Friday night.
