Rose and Blake both have to be pissed off right now.

Its a complete and total rebuild. Both are either on their way out to somewhere to get younger players or picks next year. Or they are stuck here increasing their value for a couple months, playing with 5-6 kids.

Rose for sure wants to win, not tank.

Though I maybe not happy with a pick or a trade we made overall its a good night. This team is tanking its obv. This is what many of us have wanted for years. Can't wait for the next two drafts!

Probably very disgruntled. Maybe Weaver should look into moving them soon. Shucks. :wink:

This is what we got right now.

Stewart / (Patton) / Bradley
Blake / Sekou
Bey /
Svi / Musa
Hayes / Rose


Detroit has Rodney McGruder too, he came over in the 19th pick trade.

They shouldn't be pissed. They knew exactly where this was going.
Rose apparently didn't want to be traded at the deadline so I don't think winning is very high on his priority list, it seems like he's relishing the mentor role or being a lead guy.

He's got an un-guaranteed contract. He is probably going to be waived.

Yeah McGruder is a SG, but looking at his stats he cant shoot!

He will probably be cut with Ariza. McGruder is 100% unguaranteed.

In the 2021-22 season. His 2020-21 contract year is fully guaranteed according to basketball insiders (Pincus).

And really, of all the years ever to tank... is this not the best year? Not only do we know that the draft is going to be superior, but it's not like anyone is paying big money to watch this horror show in person this year. There's no risk and so much reward for sucking.

Holy ****, you're correct. What a **** disaster of a trade. Can't get much worse than that.

Jordan Nwora is going to be a good NBA player. He’s still out there

I doubt that. He's a good player. A steal for the money.
