Could in theory be a S&T into the TPE for slightly more than the NTMLE with a 2025 salary of $14.354M. But not sure why they would do that with Ivey in the fold
The Detroit Pistons are the favorites to land Cam Thomas, per @BovadaOfficial Detroit Pistons +350 Charlotte Hornets +400 Chicago Bulls +400 Memphis Grizzlies +400 Orlando Magic +650 Utah Jazz +650 Washington Wizards +650
Discussing Ivey trade scenarios does NOT equate to wanting Ivey gone. It's just being realistic about potential outcomes as it relates to team building philosophy. Most of us love Ivey & would MUCH prefer that he becomes Cade's Robin than to trade him. But it might not happen
We are so quick to want to get rid of Ivey. I do not understand it. Did people not see this man hoop last season?
Is Cade the best passer/playmaker Duncan Robinson has every player with?
I need a clip of the Ron finish... I was crabby changing a diaper 😑
We don't need to trade for Lauri Markkanen. We have Lauri Markkanen at home
Every Pistons fan crying right now
Me: "I will not overreact to Summer League" Maxime Raynaud: 13 points (5/5FG), 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal in 8 minutes. Me:
Also the Pistons are currently $22.78M under the luxury tax line w/ 2 open roster spots. If they used the full TPE and BAE, they will cross into the tax if they make a trade at the deadline that brings in more than $3M in additional salary. Partly why I think the wait on the BAE
Reminder: if the Pistons use the Bi-Annual exception this season, they will NOT have it next summer (hence bi-annual) I actually think they won't use it this season because it might be more needed next season after extensions hit
