i dont put a ton of stock in these inflated stats. he must have had a bad night when he played detroit because he didnt look that special to me.
-
i dont know enough about modern pitching to say. if its 6 years? absolutely do it. if its ten years? probably not. the new cba might have a lot to say about it.
-
michigan is a top 5 job in college football. the biggest issue might be that coaches will have to get rid of all their onlyfans accounts!
-
i suppose, but milwaukee doesnt have any picks to trade until 2031 and 2032.
-
the hawks are sitting on new orleans' (or milwaukee's) unprotected first rounder this year. that seems like the most valuable asset that could actually be available this year. they could really use a player like anthony davis, but that pick is too valuable to deal for anthony davis. fortunately for detroit, the hawks dont need what the pistons need. but say a team like the bulls gets stupid and offers its unprotected #1 pick this year for trey murphy? do the pelicans take that over an offer of multiple picks from detroit?
-
but....SHOULD they sign skubal? do you sign a PITCHER to a monster contract before the new cba is signed? how many more years does skubal have left at this level? 2? 3? im sure this has been bandied about before in this huge thread, but i need a palate cleanser after reading people fellate al fricking avila for multiple pages.
-
trade him now.
-
what do they have to trade?
-
mcdaniel is the coah of the dolphins. youre thinking if mike macdonald.
-
4th quarter cade is real.
-
i dont think those number adequately address what lavert is contributing in his time on the floor.
-
the bulls have lost 9 of 10. they lost to new orleans again. the pelicans have won 2 games against the bulls and 3 against the other 29 teams in the league.
-
wait until they lose that game, then get back to us.
-
if mobley is healthy, the cavs are one of the top 3 teams in the east come playoff team. lots of time left in the season.
-
i'm not a massive fan of these stats, but i do think it shows how massively unlucky the wings have been this year.
-
you're fired.
-
that's an agent talking to a reporter saying "youre going to have to pay my client even more money to take a job in this situation." nothing more than posturing.
-
i remember when there was an argument that the pistons should have taken mobley over cade. i dont think anyone is making that argument any more.
-
if it was straight up, then yes you make that trade every day if the week. but edvinsson, kasper/danielson, mbn and a #1 pick is too much. then your whole team is one line and one pair of defenders. everything else is trash and no way to grow out of it. hughes is good, but he's not bobby orr.
-
maeda, morton, and now jansen. fetter can fix a lot of things, but he cant turn back time.
-
i could see both sides, but feel like detroit is better off not giving up edvinsson to meet that price for a guy who may be gone in 2 years. assuming edvinsson re-signs here.
-
freeman is not going to michigan. freeman to the nfl is a real possibility.
-
you would have traded edvinsson in a package to get hughes?
-
the east is so bad that the pistons have as good a chance as anyone else. they have a couple flaws that will be exploitable in the playoffs. robinson is their only real shooter and teams will hunt him on defense. he tries very hard but he cant stay in front of good players. brunson and mitchell will get switched on to him and it will be bad. we've already seen teams adjust to duren's roll game. ausar's lack of shooting will allow more teams to blitz cade as soon as he crosses halfcourt. they dont have a legit second ball handler. teams will want lavert with the ball because all he does is put his head down and run to the basket while everyone else watches. but if they stay healthy they are better than many teams in other areas. ivey off the bench gives them scoring depth that others dont have. a healthy stew gives them interior defense. what they really need is another ball handler and another shooter. del's crush trey murphy would be a great addition to the starting lineup but he will likely cost you ivey and probably robinson too. and then pick up a veteran point guard off the buyout market.

the idea that his "mental illness" necessitated someone being in the room with him when he was fired is ridiculous. you usually have an HR rep in the room - or, in today's world, on the zoom call - to make sure the proper message is put in place and nothing out of bounds is said. they are there to protect the organization, not the person who is being let go. then security walks them out to make sure there isnt any trouble. again, not for his mental health but to protect the organization and its employees from any actions. once he is out the door, he is responsible for his actions, not his former employer. happens all the time. the fact that it apparently didnt happen here is curious. could be another sign of disorganization by the athletic department or lack of a modern HR department overseeing the football program or athletic department.
