Re: ATL: 2018 Trade Deadline Edition - Griffin to the Pistons
The earlier tweet about them getting young players and draft picks doesn't exactly bode well for MKE. Our future 1st are very difficult to trade and we have no young players of interest who can play now to keep respectability besides Jabari. Strongly doubt they have any interest in Thon or Wilson. Well I guess Sterling Brown and Brog would be ones but I don't think any of us want to move them right now. Just grab one of the guys frequently talked about for much much cheaper than DAJ. We're not beating the Warriors this year anyway

in that case, Delly is a surely in the talks in order to lure Lebron.

Re: ATL: 2018 Trade Deadline Edition - Griffin to the Pistons
I really don't want to trade a starter.
I'd give the whole bench for a Marjanovic type player but I guess that ship has sailed.

So bad for Detroit. Just a horrible contract.

Re: ATL: 2018 Trade Deadline Edition - Griffin to the Pistons
But now that they have Blake they can draw other superstars.
Seriously though does it seem like any star player is more disliked by the rest of the league than him?
I get it from Det's perspective. As someone else said it should help them sell tickets and consistently be in the playoffs the next few years, a classic Bucks move really. Well, as long as he plays over 60 games most years anyway. Blake is still very good when healthy

Re: ATL: 2018 Trade Deadline Edition - Griffin to the Pistons
delly-Midds/2nd for DAJ and Lou is a deal that could make sense.. Tough one but I probably wouldn't do it if I was Horst

I doubt LeBron craves to play with Delly again. I mean he probably doesn't mind, but I doubt he's hell-bent on joining teams with Delly.

I wouldn't really call it a "classic Bucks move". I mean, what future assets did they mortgage for him? Two mid-1st's?

just the fact they're building a team to get the 6-8 seed. That's what I meant by it. And yea this year is a mid first no matter what but 2-3 years from now without Blake they could be picking top 5. You're just creating a middling team, that's all.
But yea you don't bring in SVG to tank and I'm sure they're sick of not consistently being in the playoffs. wanna sell some tickets, I get it. how else are they gonna get a star level player besides a tank.
Also, its surprising but Tobias is still only 25

Re: ATL: 2018 Trade Deadline Edition - Griffin to the Pistons
Had no idea he was making that type of money per year. The absurdity of that number is something I will never get over now that I know it. Watch all these guys piss this era's money away too. Incomprehensible.
Good deal for the Clippers.

Stan has been very mediocre in his role with the Pistons thus far. Maybe that changes, but so far nothing but an uninspiring effort while simultaneously lighting cash on fire. They straight up gave Josh Smith like all of his money haha.

Expiring contract, in hopes that the Clips can woo Lebron in free agency. IolBUCKnation wrote:What a weird/bad trade. I'd like to think DJ and Lou are next but what is the point of acquiring bradley.

So ironic to see these different ownership styles. Kohl would have told Stan that Blake had too big a contract to take on given his age and injury. But would have allowed a different dumb deal. The Detroit owner just lets Stan have carte blanche evidently in order to save his job.

Parker and Thon for DeAndre and Lou is happening. Jabari returning just prior to trade deadline and a huge puff piece about how he is better than ever in the Journal. Jabari is getting traded.

Can’t they just trade him or renounce if they are landing LeBron?
