Duran gonna be a problem :ehh:

I know it was against a G league Spurs team but best ball movement I’ve seen on offense all year. Bey ball stopping ass. Livers keeps it moving

Over Hayes.

Livers gonna fukk around and be a better version of what Bey was supposed to be. Take and knockdown the shots your set up for in the offense, play good d, and don't be a slouch on the boards. I want this trade to go through now just because I think it frees up some of the clutter and stagnation of the offense, especially when it comes to the young guys.

Bey might be coming back cause GPII failed his physical. The trade might be blown up by Golden State.

You know wiseman was a salary dump, he’s staying. Weaver gonna shell out 12 million each next year to a backup PF and backup C?

Weaver has always known he has to attempt somehow to match Allen and Mobley from a size perspective atleast. Watching games vs cleveland is probably the worst experience because Stewart is 6'8 so I understand the move.

If someone wants to call wiseman trash im not going to argue that but that team still runs through Klay Curry and Draymond. Pooles offense has been a bonus but the Warriors aren’t going to change the scheme to include wiseman. Those 5-10 extra shots he could be receiving will never come at the expense of less klay, curry and i guess poole shots. Thats why the warriors Centers during their run have been Bogut, Festus Ezeli, Kevon Looney , Zaza pachilia. Wiseman doesnt fit with that team.


I wanted boji gone for draft capital, then I thought to myself how much Pistons fans love to overrate our own players. Bog is turning 34 years old and he's not getting back significant draft capital. I don't want anyone lying saying 2nd round picks would have been enough for you :stopitslime:

In that scenario Stewart is the Mobley though, it sure ain’t Bagley. That means this summer Weaver is gonna place players on the trading block when their value is rock bottom. Again

Not sure what you mean, but the plan appears to be Wiseman starting @ 4 and Duren will be the 5. Stew and Bagley can easily be the backups.

I can’t possibly see Wiseman starting over Stewart at the 4, I don’t see that kind of size having such defensive flexibility yet was salary dumped. Just like when the Patriots in the NFL, I’m assuming the Warriors saw something wrong in Wiseman beyond “setting screens”. I see Wiseman and Bagley both coming off the bench in the same role, good thing about a move like this is that we’ll know shortly how it fares.

Warriors run a complex motion offense with everyone playing off Curry and Draymond. Hard for such a green prospect to find role and learn on that championship team. GS probably would have preferred to keep him if not for their luxury tax issues. Not like Pistons with Duran where he’s just asked to screen and roll. Hustle and rebound. Stewart has had flashes of outside shooting but it has not developed offensively as they hoped. Stewart is a bench player with limited upside at this point. Wiseman and Duren are special athletes. Physically they should be capable of guarding multiple positions

Killian has regressed after the Paris game like he’s still in his own head after playing so bad at home. I see him puts it together where he can be the Marcus Smart but if his mind can’t get him there then a decision will have to be made.

If the Pistons don’t get Wembanyama he probably gone just due to draft options like Scoot Henderson.

He’s a back up pg being given a green light he not built for. He showed a lot after the bad ten games but these last 9 especially last two shows who he likely is especially with Ivey becoming a solid distributor these past two months

Kill still can defend and pass but legit he has to be able to hit open threes
