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.

Re: ATL: 2018 Trade Deadline Edition
That would be such a Bucks move, gotta snag that 8th seed.

Re: ATL: 2018 Trade Deadline Edition
Can't believe the Clippers did their franchise guy like that. Jerry West ain't here for the 8th seed I guess.

Re: ATL: 2018 Trade Deadline Edition
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

Blake must be ecstatic to be going from Hollywood to the Motor City...

Re: ATL: 2018 Trade Deadline Edition
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.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.
