Shame Eason wasn't picked earlier because that suit is easily worth a top 10.

The good thing about having two broadcasts is that when one starts with a boring human interest story you can switch to the other for some middling analysis. Spoiled for choice

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

They initially sent him home when he was out of the rotation for the Knicks which makes me worry about his locker room presence but he did come back when they had covid emergencies.

A fact about Dalen Terry is that at Arizona he averaged 8.0 PPG, 4.8 RPG, and 3.9 APG. He also enjoys being called a “glue guy,” and takes it as a compliment.

We need more women in STEM, and by that, I mean skateboarding, television, esports, and magic.
OK, wait.

So the Pistons traded Grant yesterday for a lovely 2025 "first-rounder", a 2026 second-rounder, and swapping second-rounders in 2022 and 2026. Grant's contract had one year left at $21 million, all of which Portland took on. I definitely did not want Detroit to extend Grant, so I was hoping for more draft compensation but the cap space was nice.

Today, the Kings predictably implode and the Pistons get Jaden Ivey to pair with Cade in the backcourt.

Then, the Pistons trade the lovely 2025 "first-rounder" and possibly an unknown number of second-rounders to get Jalen Duren, likely a center but possibly a forward. In the process, they have to take on Kemba Walker, but he also only has one year left on his contract and his cap hit is only $9 million; also, the Pistons might buy out his contract and make him a free agent, so that would suggest a smaller cap hit.

So, in exchange for the last year of Grant and possibly one or more second-rounders, Weaver effectively managed to land the center he wanted and cut at least $12 million from the salary cap.

...Could we still be going for Ayton? It feels like the moment has passed to take on Hayward, and I think we'll still have enough cap space to offer him a max.

They gotta be packaging that stuff for a trade. Cause LaMelo and Bridges are too good to waste time waiting on more picks.
