Not too familiar with his game, but definitely looks like he'll fit right in in Utah.

Trade for Kessler?

They have Collins, Eubanks, Filipkowksi.

Do we want to give up more pics?

DET trying to do what Houston did and even the Knicks before them. Getting some veterans to help lift up the young guys out of the gutter. They need to target some defense though like Houston did.

Tim Sr. works for DET so I get it from that perspective.

I just got a call from the Knicks scouting department asking me what my vertical was.

How do you take that contract on AND give up Grimes though. Grimes is the best player in that deal and they were desperate to get out of Tim's contact, and Detroit had to give up Grimes and 2nd rounders to take it on? That makes no sense.

Tobias Harris becomes their Al Harrington

I 100% support Detroit and their efforts to raise their win totals, and excuse me while I go look up their draft protection on the Detroit pick NY owns.

DET received three 2nd rounders in the deal. It was Hardaway + 2nd rounders for Grimes. Not vice versa.

I’m looking at Isaiah jackson or Nick Richards via trade as they have cheap contracts. Maybe Detroit wants their pick back for Duren ?

Isiah Jackson was awesome in his brief minutes against us. Duop Reath is also stuck behind Clingan, TimeLord, Ayton and had some flashes of excellence.

Yeah my bad. Still only you only got 3 second roudners and you had to take on Tim's terrible deal and give up Grimes? I guess their new regime didn't value Grimes at all. One would have thought he was a young building piece/same year in the league as Cade.

Grimes might have been a good idea until Trajon Langdon took charge.
Detroit needs to win now as the fan base is freaking losing its way.
Detroit needs shooters around Cade and Ivey will still need time. Grimes was the price.

Indiana wants their top 55 protected seconds back?

Utah has a lot of Centers and Power Forwards.

Kessler / Filipowski / Eubanks
Markannen / Collins / Hendricks / Bazley / Lofton

I’ve had my eye on Kessler for awhile. Not sure about his fit but I like his game

Yes they do but a lot of them aren’t any good.

Klay is headed to Dallas on some kind of sign and trade that sends Josh Green to Charlotte
