This is bad situation...as bad as anything I've seen in decades of Detroit sports. The roster is a shambles...we keep getting screwed in the lottery and we compound that by picking guys who can't shoot when the modern game dictates that you build around shooting. I don't see this getting any better any time soon
Would not trade Larkin or Seider...would love to sign Stamkos. Half jokingly Suggested the possibility here months ago...would becawesome if that somehow came to pass
I think I would have taken Clingan...yes a big like that isn't useful in the playoffs...but we're a long way from that being an issue and we really could use a rim protector
So many guys fit profiles of guys they drafted b4 who flamed out. Buzelis is Austin Daye or Ellenson...Castle is Killian...Salaun is Doumbouya.. Knecht is Kennard...the only guy without a comp is Clingan. So draft him.
Tork with 2 HR's...one to RF off a 95 MPH sinker, the other a GS to left. He also took a 95MPH middle/middle FB and shot it to RF for a solid hit. Is he starting to get it ?
Upon reflection...Walman has been injury prone the past two years....plying 63 games in each. His defensive play slipped last season. I think if this clears room to make a bigger more meaningful acquisition...I'll be ecstatic.
