So we have a day and a half before the deadline. What are we going to do?

What I WANT to happen is not what I expect to happen.

If I had to put money on it, I’d wager we end up doing nothing.

Where's the "absolutely no f***ing clue whatsoever" option?

At this point I don't expect anything to happen. If something does happen I expect it will be minimal. Maybe we find a way to get back a 2nd rounder. *shrug*

I think “do nothing” is the nicer sounding equivalent

I'm actually leaning towards they do nothing which would be terrible.

I think Weaver needs to do something. You have to show your boss something.

He's still serving Cade Kool-Aid.

Not really. That would be "I don't know."

Maybe this is better posted in here

Probably nothing to do with us, but Holmes and Bagley both held out tonight.

The 30 point losses doesn't generate much coveting for any Piston from the the league's GM. Hard to make a trade when you've got nothing of value.
I mean I hope I'm wrong but my expectations are very, very low of achieving a deal that helps with the rebuild.

Indiana and Cleveland both made great moves and we have yet to do anything.

Incredibly disappointing.

Everyone better get used to Grant as a Pistons on a new 120M/4 year deal

I mean we'll see as some GMs are hard to predict. Personally I wouldn't trade a damn thing for him but a couple 2nd rounders or something.

I think one of CoJo, Jackson, McGruder or lyles gets loved for a bad second rounder. I think weaver likes Grant on a personal level so he stays out and ultimately resigns.

Ok, ok take this with a grain of salt.

So this chick works in the NBA media (or something) and was at the Pistons v Mavs game today.

She seemed to be pretty close to the Pistons when they were going through warm ups etc.

Anyway while she was close she tweeted this

Every chance she just chasing clout/followers… but hey I got bored and thought I’d share
