    Boston looks to be clearing cap space. Think they are at around $10 mil after the Kanter trade. Seems like they are likely biggest competition for Wood

    I'm going back and forth between "we don't know how this will all play out so stay calm" and "I'm out on Troy Weaver" based on this recent news.

    What the fuck is this shit.

    I'm guessing (hoping) Dedmon has already been traded but it hasn't been announced yet, and that Tony Bradley is just going to get waived or something along those lines.

    I'm also guessing that Bradley will get picked up and will be as good or better than both Plumlee and Okafor next year for someone else.

    Urban must be consulting for Weaver because we are just focused on the Rivals 150

    Sure James, but at what point to they stop acquiring them and start removing them?

    At least we're still just talking about things that make no sense with shitty players on short contracts.

    Maybe he wore Strength shoes since March and only we know about his newfound jumping abilities.

    This is a classic move by Weaver. Making us think he sucks when he’s just trying to tank gracefully. You guys want your cake and eat it all the time. Let him do his thing

    You have a point. If you’re trying to lose games would you rather have Wood, or Plumlee and Okafor.

    I’m afraid Weaver is about to use a future first to get Drummond back.

    signing Plumlee to vet minimum deal would have still pissed me off, no words for this. Between this and clusterfuck of some those trades earlier this week are we sure if Weaver isn't actually just SVG in disguise

    3 years for 27 million? That’s pretty much what we paid Plumlee. WTF

    Getting kind of tired of cryptic tweets from Pistons beat writers who report nothing.

    Also, Edwards complains a few times a year that so many fans care about the Lions but no one cares about the Pistons. Then, when the Pistons do stupid shit and people bitch about it, he goes all "my mentions are so funny right now" to make fun of fans for that. Kind of annoying.

    they already commited trade rape on Weaver in that deal and there's a chance it could be even worse?

    Beard's tweet says $47 million, that 27 has to be a typo

    Houston doesn't have the cap room to sign him for that much money. Beard's tweet would be the one with the typo.
