New Orleans / Detroit 

Post#1 » by hoopsfan777 » Thu Jun 12, 2025 7:42 pm

New Orleans outgoing

CJ McCollum

Detroit outgoing

Tobias Harris
Simone Fontecchio
#37

New Orleans adds a second round pick and look to continue to hit in the second round of the draft. Harris and Fontecchio are bench depth.

Detroit adds veteran scoring/shooting for the playoffs in McCollum.

Tobias is main PF and they have 3 on ball guards, thogh CJ leadership is valuable, Pistons have no place for him on roster, especially not for Tobi.
Defense wins draft lotteries!

I don't mind this if Detroit loses Beasley. Not my favorite move for Detroit but not unrealistic either.

Detroit doesn't own #34 either.

Nope. Makes a hole, doesn’t fill a need.

So, detroit trades the only 2 rotation PF's from their team for a guard to back up Cade and Ivey? Hard pass on this one. Creates a huge hole just to upgrade Shroeder to CJ

Detroit says no. They don't need CJ.
