2022 NBA draft lottery

Can the stones pull it off again? Can’t drop lower than 7 I believe. Who we want? Chet? Jaden? Paola? Jabari?

Hopefully Rip can hit one last mid range and grab the #1 pick. Gotta stay top 4 though

Is Darko still available?

Gores...WTF?

Banchero

Hahaha pistons 5th. Now they’ll end up with someone like a big ten slugs Keegan Murray or Johnny Davis

MAX!

Pistons making moves…

Interesting

I thought 2025 was a typo when I first saw it tbh turtleneck. But apparently they have an ungodly amount of salary cap space now so we’ll see what they do with it. Maybe they’ll bring Miles home

Need a shooter/shooters

The last time they had a chance to make this kind of splash in free agency

Those guys suck.

When evaluating Keegan Murray, several NBA writers reported there was a concern about his age in their draft analysis.
Murray will be 22 this August.

Teams used the same logic in 2012 when 1st Team All American, Big Ten POY Draymond Green fell to the 2nd round 35th overall pick

Do you sign Gordon Hayward and his shitty contract plus picks and jettison him in two years so the Hornets can sign Bridges or go all in and give Bridges a max deal that Charlotte probably can’t match?

Poor guy.

So IRL he was super quick, couldn't score as I recall. D was questionable.
I'm not great at judging this shit... I suppose We'll see.

Pick #13 Jalen Duren to Pistons

Gave up the 2025 first rounder they got for Grant

Also got kemba 1yr 9 million

That’s a decent expiring contract.

$1 today is worth more than $1 three years from now. So the Grant trade ends up netting the #13 pick in this draft, moving up 10 spots in the second round, and 2 more future 2nd round picks. Sounds like good value to me.

I think that first rounder was conditional as well?

He averaged like 17 points a game?

Love Ivey falling to the Pistons. Also I read that Kemba’s contract will be bought out and he will be come a free agent.

This seems like math. Please stop.
