We win this one. Charlotte in unabashed tank buying out all their vets after doing nothing at the TDL.

they're clearly out-tanking us with all those buyouts.
hope Sekou strikes back, at least.

Yeah, incredible tank job going on in Charlotte.
Wonder how many wins they get to close out the year. Might not win another road game.

Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

To be fair they werent playing anyway. But yeah we are about as blatantly tanking as possible.

Should Sekou be trying to dunk on these lay up attempts or something?

Not sure why people think the Pistons are gonna win this one. Charlotte has won nine in a row in the head-to-head matchup.

Kevin Porter Jr is looking like one of the best players from this last draft. So glad we sold that pick for cash and some bum shooting 30% in Europe.
I hate this team. I will never understand that move. **** this.

Man if we can just keep Rose out then the tank will be strong. Hes just too good at creating his own buckets.

Pistons combined record vs. CHA, CHI, WASH, NYK, CLE and ATL this season: 6-14.
That's embarrassing.

We need about 2-3 years of this somehow to ensure we can load up on cheap young talent. And that's hoping we dont draft bust.

Our owner is in over his head.maybe Jalen Rose becoming a minority owner would help the cause.
