Back-to-back for both teams. No travel for us. Should be an advantage.

We're not gonna miss Joe Harris. He's useless.

Geez. We must be the most injured team, but our schedule is tough. I'm trying to look at a positive. Hopefully everyone comes back and we go on a 5-5 "run"

I always figured the Joe Harris addition was mostly about getting to the salary floor while adding some bench shooting. Could be wrong though.

We help Brooklyn to get out of another unwanted contract. We did it a few times alread, might do it again. Once Gores fire Weaver, Brooklyn are going to get him a job for sure.

We took DeAndre Jordan money off their books for very little compensation, and now Joe Harris massive contract for pretty much nothing.

Had to hit the cap floor somehow. Might as well get a couple picks to do so and keep flexibility for next year. Beats the Joe D and SVG methods of just signing some scrub on a 5 year deal.

We're not getting anyone with the money. We've been rolling cap space for 3 years alread. Soon Cade will get paid and we'll have no cap space left.

*sigh*

Last year Cade goes out 11 games in.

This year Cade is back, and everyone else is out.

I'll say this, Sasser has an amazing opportunity to cement himself as a rotation piece for the foreseeable future.

Well that would be amazing. Pistons just got bad luck lately, so I wouldn't count on it.
