What.

The.

Fuck?!?!

I know you are saying those guys didn’t deserve it when they won.

But, the way you worded it has me confuzzled…lol
Nah. I’m talking about Harden KD Magic Bird Kobe Shaq Russ…most MVPs have to be at that MVP level for a few years before the voters grant them the award. Those guys were the first two I could think of that had a season where they just blew up in the public eye and were given the award without establishing years of MVP caliber play.

Having Duren is a game changer.

Again it just goes to show how bad defensively Bags and Wiseman are and that Stew should be playing 5 about 18 minutes a game and the 4 in very specific situations.

Kevin Knox sucks but just the spacing he gives is enough to be an upgrade over Stew.

If Weaver has any designs on staying in Detroit he needs to trade Stew Livers and Burks and force Monty to figure something else out.

you have an athletic wing who's main skillset is defense and Boston is loaded there. I know what I'd do. Play Alec Burks the last 15 minutes and let Thompson pick splinters out of his ass.

The good news is... the future isn't as bad as this years record indicates. Cunningham and Ivey are real pieces. Duran seems like another good, young body.

Basically, most of the rest of the roster needs to get cleared out... and then you add in another top draft pick and some role bodies...

Detroit could easily be a fringe playoff team starting next year.
