All-star games are the new phone booth.
At the end of the day, it's not about wins and losses. Teamwork, fair play, and good sportsmanship make champions of us all.

Go arbitrary assortment of athletes! Beat the other arbitrary assortment of athletes or my mood will suffer!

Sign me up for Cade playing 38 MPG the rest of the season.


That too. Just give him space, pace, and some interior presence guys like the bench mob is doing, and then you'll see magic happen

One can only hope


The MLE is $10+ million.

If he thinks he could go to a contender and split the MLE with someone else, he makes a little more chedda and goes to a winning team. (Wishful thinking)

It feels like this unit should be looking to get it inside to Bagley a bit.

If LaVine visited the board, that’s a bonus for him too.

Absolutely no shot blocking threat for us down low . 30 million would be a ton for Ayton , but I imagine he could help take this team to the next level .

I've already contacted his people to let him know I have an American Express Platinum card with no limit.

Or use 12ish million to get a defensive anchor like Mitchell Robinson?

Pistons fans would gladly donate to a GoFundMe to get him a sizeable “signing bonus.”
