Castle has 20 turnovers through the first two games.

Some interesting calls and no calls in that one. No call on this one

Pass. He will be 35 when the playoffs start. Coming off of a major knee injury and already had a shaky injury history before that. I did get a good laugh looking up his age on Basketball Reference. They list one of his nicknames World B. Flat.

I'm not basketball expert. But if you hold Wemby to 1 shot in the quarter, you better not just be tied.

Some rules were changed/tweaked. SpaceX to IPO on Nasdaq after index rules adjusted - reports

The more likely scenario is they just match and accept they will be a 2nd apron team and have to pay the luxury tax. But, that gets expensive fast. A $25 million Peyton Watson contract now comes with heavy luxury tax penalties. The Pistons biggest hurdle is they simply don't have $25 million to throw at him. It would 100% have to be a sign and trade. Robinson + Reed is $20 million total which means Detroit could offer Watson $27.5 million for his first year. Denver cuts both players. Robinson only has $2 million guaranteed and Reed has nothing, so Denver saves $18 million. Toss in next year 1st round pick top 5 protected to complete the deal.

They released the numbers. I think they lost $5 billion on $18 billion in revenue, and they have a valuation of $1.75 trillion. Holy growth stocks.

Something to consider regarding his future trade value. Teams out west will not want him or other centers like him. Victor is going to run that conference for the next 10+ years. You can't play a non-shooting big against him. You have to have a guy that can shoot 3's and pull Wemby out away from the basket. It's why Hartenstein barely played in game 1. His value will go down when half of the league isn't a viable landing spot.

Plus it would give the bottom half more money to buy junk on Amazon they don't need.

If they give Ausar and Duren a combined $60-$70 million a year, you're not getting a second scorer. Your second scorer has to be one of them. The summer of 2027 the Pistons have 4 guys under contract currently for a cap hit of $98 million. If you give Duren $30 million a year and Ausar $35 million per, that is 6 guys committed at $165 million a year, which is right where the cap will be. Your 7th guy can't be a $40 million a year second option with that roster. You are right they will need those future assets. But it will be to add cheap talent to fill out the bench because they are going to be struggling with the cap.

#21 is a throwaway pick, so I wouldn't get mad if they picked him there. But I'm not trading away a future first to move up and pick Yaxel.

I would be pissed if I'm SA. Those are two prime games to rest Victor that are now taken away from them.

I would almost guarantee it wasn't Gores. Gores is a glory hound. He is the guy with PE on the LCA floor even though 99.99% of the people watching can't invest in their funds. He is the guy with his massive picture mixed in with the players in the tunnel. Extending a coach who has three years left on his deal is boring. It isn't sexy. Gores wouldn't care about it.

Why the hell would you send the Pelicans?

JB should be taking notes.

The Knicks went after Harden more in the 4th quarter than Detroit did the entire series.
