I've never been a Drummond supporter (but please don't let it upset any of you).

I wonder if the T-wolves would hang up if Stan offered Andre and Stanley for Dieng and Wiggins.


This thread is like Inception. People crying about people crying about people acting like 5 yr olds, who created a thread calling Drummond a baby lol.

My guess is if Stan made that call, Bower would disconnect his phone and tell him to put the liquor down. That would be an awful trade for us.

Actually I'm pretty sure the T-Wolves would get on their knees and thank Stan for being so benevolent.

Speculating is entertaining. Right or wrong.

I haven't seen Inception, so I'm not sure of what similarity or comparison you're trying to make. Nonetheless, I wasn't complaining about Navas' remarks, just merely offering unsolicited advice. :P

I'm just going to pretend this thread doesn't exist. Drummond should never be traded.

I thought I'd visit the Pistons board. This thread is quite shocking to me. From an outsider's point of view it looks like Detroit is finally getting back on track to being a really legit team that's maybe a few pieces away from contending, Drummond becoming an All-Star etc. And to find posts hating on him and demanding for a trade was something I did not expect.

:lol:

First of all... who's that in your avatar? Carrie Ann Inaba?

I don't think there's much hate for Drummond (myself not included). However, when you have people labeling him a franchise player... and he has to leave the court during crucial times of the game because of his inept FT shooting, people will conjure up some hypothetical scenarios.

I feel the Pistons are getting back on track because they have finally improved the bench and have 2 legitimate tough players at the SF position... a position of need for eons. They had a good early surge when they were playing sensible defense.

Lol we'd be the laughing stock of the league if we did this. This thread should've been closed a while ago. It really is shameful

The Pistons board has been infested with "Piston fan" trolls for the past few years. They post just to incite other fans. But our "mods" won't do anything about it. :nonono:

Just offer Drummond for the 15th player on the OKC depth chart, Bondom will come over and argue how bad Drummond is and how good that player is and how we're such homers for even suggesting such a biased deal and when people push back he'll dig in and then have Tsherkin come over and lock the thread because people were disagreeing with a mod.

It works just like the Bat Signal.

All the things people hate about Drummond and posting about it here are the same things people were saying about Dwight years before he led them to the Finals.

Ben Wallace was a Career 41.4% FT shooter and he won Ships. People need to relax and let players develop. They may just surprise you in the end.

I won't say that Drummond should be considered absolutely untradable. It's possible to imagine deals you could accept.

That said, some people on here just go over the top with their frustration. Drummond has progressed as a player. He does many things better, although FTs aren't one of them. Concluding that his being nice to a fan during a game is a sign that he lacks leadership, or that he shows emotion after a disappointing moment is an indication that he's mentally weak, is just an emotional reaction to your own disappointment. I'll probably get banned for using a dirty word, but patience. :lol:

I'd trade him for Curry, DMC, Davis, Thompson, KAT, Zingis, LBJ, Wiggins and maybe ten more players.

Ben wasn't the centerpiece focal point to our offense like Dre is now. That's a HUGE difference. And Hacking Ben pissed him off and he tripled his effort on the floor in all other aspects, Dre sulks. Drummond has been in the league for four years now - he is what he is by in large at this point. And I HATE that he is an all-star this season, because it just re-enforces to him that he's doing everything right already and he's the type to coast off it.
