He also shot 40% from the field and 3.5 turnovers. These numbers aren't any better than Russ.

Not sure if it's true but it was reported that Troy Weaver told Jerami Grant he's not being traded.


Damn. I was hoping that Phoenix would put on their big boy pants and make a move for Grant.

I am not sure how reliable that is, but Woj also said Detroit doesn't like any offer they have.

I believe we'll keep him, and I am fine with that.

Tell me what the Pistons are doing. They should be giving development minutes to their young guys and cut their losses with Grant, Joseph, Lyles. I know Grant wants to be the man on a team but still who gives a **** trade him and move on.

He still has a year left so deals will be there in the off-season, especially given no one has room for FA this year.

We don't have a lot of guys worth developing. Cade is one of the players that get double teammed the most in the league, he need capable players around him.

Grant wanting to be the man thing is overblown, he does have flaws, but he is a very good player, with a great skill set and would fit well in any team, including Detroit.

He know Troy Weaver for several years, since way before OKC, they like and trust each other, he is one of the few players who actually wanted to go to Detroit, him and Cade.

Detroit can build a playoff team next season, if they play their hand well.

Cade/Bey/Grant 30+ mil in cap space and likely a top 5 pick. If they get a good center and a good guard, that team will be good.

What Detroit really need to do is dump Kelly Olynyk. He is not a starter and neither is Stewart.

If we draft Smith or Banchero, then yes, we'd likely need to trade Grant. If we draft Sharp/Holmgren/Ivey, Grant is great.

I still think a few wildcards are going to happen. That's how these GM's work. They wait until the last minute usually. No one expected Haliburton to go...

I also think the remaining trades will be for salary/cap purposes for the summer and or teams exchanging flyers for a better fit flyer.

I dont think Simmons or John Collins get moved.

Trade deadline is 36 hours away. People want to see some action.

Get rid of all these boring trades and wake me up when Warriors GM Bob Myers fakes surprise he has to trade Klay Thompson to Orlando and Draymond Green to Houston. :D

Cam Reddish to Lakers in three-way trade?

Michael Scotto: Sources: The Lakers, Knicks and Raptors have discussed a 3-team trade. Lakers get Cam Reddish and Alec Burks. Knicks get Goran Dragic and draft picks. Raptors get Talen Horton-Tucker and Nerlens Noel. There’s also a chance Kendrick Nunn is added to the trade as talks continue 1 hour ago – via Twitter MikeAScotto

That would be very Knickslike, unless they're getting a 1st, which they won't.
