So they wanna roll out Reggie Jackson, Blake Griffin, Andre Drummond, and change...and hope Stanley Johnson becomes something?

Lol, k. Go for it, Detroit. Sounds like a **** version of what Blake had in LAC.

My thoughts exactly. Please go for it. I don't see this doing anything for either team

He's signed through 2022.

I don't think Blake really moves the needle for them- not after the gutting required to get him. I don't get it really.

That would be such a Bucks move, gotta snag that 8th seed.

Can't believe the Clippers did their franchise guy like that. Jerry West ain't here for the 8th seed I guess.

Better them than us, this is a very Kohl-era move for Detroit, and I honestly don't see a scenario in which either team becomes noticeably better. We shall see though. Should be an interesting week now that the first big trade has gone down...usually other teams get their trade courage after a move like this

Crazy trade.

Question - is there a player who's reputation as a good player out weighs his advanced stats as much as Avery Bradley? I'm not an advanced stats are the bible kind of guy but like every single one about Avery Bradley would point to him being a less than replacement level guy this year and they really aren't even kind to him from his Boston days. Yet the perception is he's good and will get like $15-20M per year this summer.

We better not give more for DJ than the Pistons gave for Blake.
