lol. Pistons are always the last stop. They’re like a hospice. Blake Griffin, Allen Iverson, Chris Webber, all went there to (see their careers) die.
You’d have to S&T Tobias at like $30mill to even make it possible. Maybe even more. They’re picks suck too
Detroit? Let’s just dump him in Memphis while we are at it. Honestly, KD will decide where he will play next year. His agent will reach out and give a list of 4-5 teams if he chooses to take that path. He will then be dealt to one of those teams. We gave up a #10 pick in the draft, I doubt we get something like that back unless we agree to take some dead salary back.
I can't see it. They just don't have contracts that make it work without sending out multiple players they don't want to trade. KD makes $43.9m, it takes a minimum of $35,121,951 to match KD's salary. Here's their cap sheet for next year. Cade Cunningham - $50,105,628 Duncan Robinson - $15,992,957 Isaiah Stewart - $15,000,000 Caris LeVert - $14,809,200 Ausar Thompson - $11,117,925 Ron Holland II - $9,069,600 Paul Reed - $5,602,689 Marcus Sasser - $5,198,983 Daniss Jenkins - $4,000,000 Tolu Smith III - $2,411,090 Chaz Lanier - $2,735,698 Duren is RFA and they won't be trading him. You tell me, in what world do they cobble together $35.1m in salary?
Considering he didnt want to get traded from the Suns I doubt he will request a trade here esp after they won last game. This team way better than Booker and Beal and he wanted to stay there lol
The Rockets don't really need to honor his list, he has a newly signed extension. His only leverage is retirement & forfeit $80 million.
