That is such a basic way of looking at it.

There was no reason for them to keep Bojan or Burks. They turned that into an asset and some 2nd rounders.

They ate a deal for another 2nd

They traded an expiring for two young wings on restricted deals

Releasing Hayes is irrelevant to this deadline. That hit is years old.
75-80M in cap space in the summer

Is it me or did the Pisstones quietly rake in some draft assets while ridding the team of potential deadweight??

They had to deal Bojan and Burks because they suck and its pointless to keep them.

hell...that's not even including they added Simone for Knox and a 2nd?

Im not saying this is some huge win but they traded a 33 and about to be 35 year old for Grimes (24) and some picks.

It is an appropriate understanding of one's timeline.

They're doing a full reset. As should be expected for a 7-43 team.

Keep young, talented players and try to get as much draft capital as possible.

The offseason will be the big test. Cade's last year before, still got 24-25 QO but they need to make some moves. Not a lot in FA

it's not even a full reset. They have all their young core. They just reset the vets for younger controlled players. Which gives them half a season to kick the tires on them

That's a lot better than sucking with guys that should be playing elsewhere.

Might as well suck and hope to have some make a breakthrough.

Killian Hayes was not going to suddenly be able to shoot. He will always be this.

Agree. How they pivot off this disaster is a huge test.

Fortunately it doesn't necessarily need to come through FA since they have so much cap.

Victim had his leg amputated.

Heat fan: "He (Highsmith) did nothing wrong."

Cannot make this shit up, folks.
He was speeding.

But, sounds like an accident.

I didn’t see anything about alcohol or drugs, no reckless driving.

Cops will rarely pull you over for going 5 miles over the speed limit.

Civil suit unless something pops up later.

How can someone cover the NBA and not eviscerate Charlotte for trading an expiring in Hayward for Bertans and Tre Mann and Then buy out bertans?

what the fuck?

And the Pistons are the losers?

Charlotte didn't even get a 2nd rd pick for that

wtf
