Danny Ainge probably just putting the finishing touches on a 7 team multiple player deal. Wait for it.

If the Pistons don't deal Rose now they are stupid. Already dumped drummond.

Bertrans/IT
Wood/Rose

Collins and Markennen are fun but I don't think he's zoned in on either of those guys right now. I think his calls are to Washington with Detroit on hold.

I'll be fine with either deal. I'll be happy with either deal.


Bertrans is a 4 months rental. IT is not a good fit here.
Rose would be great, Wood just hate to play defense.


Wood is a good rebounder and shotblocker.

Just detroit sucks really bad

If I remember correctly, wasn't the IT trade back in 2015 announced a few minutes after the 3pm deadline?

Too easy. He should do a 7 team single player deal. That's how you build a legacy.

At least in part, giving you the team with the 5th best record in the league this year, and still with clear paths for improvement.

Stats doesn’t seem to love IT. Is he actually good? Had a good start to the year.

Please do it Danny ! We can’t just keep hoarding pinks & the draft class is ordinary this year anyway.
Boston first & Milwaukee first & get the Latvian Laser !

Warriors killed this deadline. That Minny pick is outstanding. They turned losing KD for nothing into a real shot at Giannis in a year.

I think they are now ducking a massive repeater tax next year as well?

Reminder: by just about any metric we’re one of the top 4 teams in the league, despite a bonanza of games missed. That roster was built by Danny Ainge, and Danny Ainge doesn’t care how desperate you are for some action.

Edit to add: also with the second youngest roster in the L and a lot of draft capital.

Actually several minutes after 3 I believe. Literally agreed to last second
