So I bet that late-40's Second Rounder doesn't sound so bad now.
And judging by our first 10-Day Contract it's not like we're going to add anybody worth looking at either.
This probably means Donta Hall will be signed now as Pistons only have four bigs including Sekou. All the bigs are skinny dudes as well - Wood, Thon and Henson. Hall is another skinny big.
GS already signed Dragan Bender as well.

And yet Lakers and Raptors want him for free now? System is broken.

Yup. Lots of teams just wait for the buyout market now.

Houston, LA Clippers made moves planning on it and Lakers did nothing as well at the deadline.

Good deal. That's been Donta Hall's spot all season.

Everyone jumping ship. With this front off our team will be the new Knicks for the next decade! Straight embarrassing!

well, we’ve been the pistons for the last decade, and that hasn’t exactly gone well.

The system isn't broken. Teams just didn't want to make a 2 year commitment.

damn guess teams weren't offering anything for galloway too...sounds like rose and kennard was the only other players getting interest around the league.

it feels refreshing to go into 100% rebuild mode with the pistons and ive been watching since 2003.

Yeah like there’s actually some sliver of hope and actual potential development for once minus the draft this year being weak, this is all I ever wanted.
An actual direction being taken instead of doing dumb trades on guys that are over the hill or about, and dumb contracts

Try as many players as you can, that should be the route.

Exactly.
Comb the G League for potential role players.
Maker, Hall
Wood, Sekou
Snell, Svi
Luke, Galloway
Brown, Rose, Bone
Snell & Galloway might be the next buyouts though.
Rose is only here cause he wants to be

Snell ain't giving up $12M next season. Galloway could happen but he's a lockerroom leader here and I could see the Pistons wanting to re-sign him.
Knight is here for playing time thanks to Tellem. Henson probably another guy they'd consider re-signing in the off-season.
