They werent even asking for a pick to take that contract on iirc It was rumored that they would take Josh for Jason Thompson. Not sure what else was included on both sides but I would imagine they wanted the pick too and it might have fallen through cause they didn't have their pick.

I love stauskas he is probably my favorite wolverine since webber and rose I would give up the whole Pistons team for him.
I love and hate that he went #8 in the draft. Love it for him but hate that he went that high for the program.

I also think the Pistons would be a much better team had they not lost their pick and were able to nab a shooter like Nik.
Imagine him jacking up 30 shots a night instead of Josh Smith. He would have to have more points because he can actually shoot

He would have to have more points because he can actually shoot He would shoot better without a doubt but he wouldn't get nearly as many shots as people know he can shoot and wouldn't cheat. Josh gets a huge cushion cause teams know he can't shoot and that if you leave him open he will continue to shoot.

They played a good game last night. PHX is a pretty good team so its good to see them break the streak against them.

Who would you want to trade it for? Clear the log jam up front and use the pick to bring something back. SVG knows better than I do but another big on this team would make no sense I think id rather trade Drummond and get Okafor if they had the first pick.

Then again ive watched 10 total minutes of the Pistons this year so i could be way off base.

no way do they trade Drummond. He's 21 and has massive star potential.

I still haven't gotten over how we didn't get a 1st round pick last year. Dumars was literally stupid.

Not bad but he won't thrive until he gets a really a good PG who can get him easy shots he will not truly thrive. He isn't nearly the shot blocker that Jordan is either which also hurts his potential IMO.

I honestly can't even look at Brandon Knight's numbers without getting physically ill. And he's not even old enough to rent a car at the normal rate.

I've always thought Tyson Chandler was a good comparison, but it's becoming apparent that Drummond doesn't particularly care about playing defense, which is a shame. I think the Jordan comp is pretty apt now.

Drummond has plenty of time to develop though, the dude just turned 21 in August. Pegging him now is a little unfair, besides it's not like he has the best veterans around him to help him grow into his abilities. That's exactly what the Pistons need actually, a league vet not named Josh Smith that can show the young guys the ropes and how to maximize their potential. Even Monroe is only 24. Basically the Pistons need Kobe.
I just want management to take time with the young guys and not make rash decisions early without letting players develop. That's why I killed them when they traded Brandon Knight when he was only 21 because "He's not a true point and will probably top out as a 3rd guard that can't shoot great." Now the dude is on a tear and Milwaukee is the surprise team of the East. We should've known better than to trade with John Hammond. Actually we all probably did, but of course Dumars was clueless #Goodshill
