[WOJ]Pistons trade Bruce Brown to Nets...

Read on Twitter


Didn't expect this happening. Huh. So Brooklyn trading Dinwiddie somewhere and Pistons drafting a guard on Wednesday?

I’m kind of at the “whatever man” stage with this team.

I kinda liked Brown but he wasn’t that good. I need to see what quality that pick is. They don’t have their own this year.

I don’t get the trade but I’m guessing Weaver likes some guys available in the range of that second rounder.

Trade is about second rounder, I’d think.

Nets don't have their own SRP in 2021 - have ATL, PHX, Indiana & TOR's though. All likely better than where BKLN will end up picking at least.

Weaver's first move is not impressive.
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

Second round pick is for 2021 not 2020 lol

Man hopefully Detroit gets the best second rounder Brooklyn is owed next year. Musa sounds like a wash out already.

Yeah, I also just saw it’s Toronto’s pick per Woj update, which is even worse.

Do not like this move. Agreed on Musa.

I mean Musa looks like he's fluid with the ball. Probably on the same level as Brown on offense.But im gonna imagine nowhere near the defender. Can only hope he is as hard of a worker as Brown was.

Yah cant say I like this move but with the cupboards being bare with our 2nd round picks I expect more of this.

Troy is probably betting on the Raptors tanking this season

A donation is an accurate description here, Detroit got nothing.

Brown was the only player on this team with any true “Pistons” DNA really. It’s definitely disappointing but let’s see how it all ends up I guess...

As good as Brown offensively? Brown was a net negative on offense.

He started because our other guys couldn’t guard NBA level guys.
