franz wagner was the first to sign, then barnes, cade and mobley in that order (all within a couple weeks).

the way they're playing, cade and mobley are looking like they could qualify for the supermax.

If Franz stayed healthy this season, he would've been an all-nba player. He was in the top 10 mvp when he got injured

i think he definitely would've had a good chance, i just left him out with cade/mobley because now he can't qualify for all-nba.

I don't know if that's a good thing or bad thing that he and I are on the same page. Haha. But yeah, Cade could easily make second team, like how Jalen Brunson went on his tear after Julius Randle went down part way through the season. Detroit figured out how to let him cook.

It will be interesting to see what they look like when Jaden Ivey comes back.

Ngl I was worried Cade wasn’t gonna turn out as advertised but I was definitely too impatient with him as he’s producing as excepted now.
