No, I'd rather have the team stay at 8 where there is a higher chance of getting a core player than having two much lower chances.

#8 and Meeks for James Young, #16 and #28


I like this deal. I liked James Young as a prospect prior to the draft. His shooting ability would fit nicely with this team. (And the guy played for Rochester Hills HS) :D

Edit: Even better if Portis is still on board at #16.


BBBOOOOO Rochester, Highlander for life.

It's bad enough I had to suffer through RHS having Paul Davis, but at least he went to state and redeemed himself.

But on the topic of the trade, I love it. I would do that in a heartbeat. If the draft shakes out like I think it will none of the options at 8 seem better than this package

These ideas are all bad, Meeks at the end of his contract will still be the best player in the trade.

Pistons must draft a shooter, not a small forward

It's the title of a Drew Sharp piece from the FP. Must be true if it comes from the beloved Drew Sharp. He kind of jumps on the Booker bandwagon.

Drew sharp is a troll that got hired by FP. He's always negative and when he's wrong he rarely admits it but continues to criticize. How he continues to have a job, still amazes me

Here's hoping it's smoke to see who'll choke!

Maybe we can trade down a spot or 2, get a guy we covet and a second rounder?
