John Wall wants out? Wow

That whole thing is super-odd. Wasn't Beal recently saying how he wanted to stick it out with Wall in WAS...and now Wall wants out...and how the heck are they going to be able to trade him?

The Westbrook/Wall deal is the only one that makes sense given how overpaid they are, and that one's just shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic (or two Titanics, I guess)

Ugh, options continue to drop like flies. Encouraged that we haven't heard anything about Baynes yet, though.

Danny taking his time. Wants to ensure he gets almost nothing of value in the free agent market

I really cant believe this would be Indiana not wanting to include the Holliday kid.

Depends on what he's gonna make. I'd love him at the minimum, and using the MLE on a bench scorer. If he wants more, I might just prefer a vet for the minimum

Per TJMcbride, Denver offered Grant the same 3yr/60M deal but he chose the Pistons because he wanted a bigger role.

Weird decision by Grant, he was their third option in the playoffs with MPJ being unplayable on defence.

I really don't get this whole Detroit/Dedmon thing. He has 2 years, $13.3 million remaining. Straight up waiving him would make no sense since it gives you 2 years of massive dead cap (when you could keep him this year and then try to move him next year), but stretching would mean $5.3 million in dead cap for the next 5 years.

Did they seriously learn nothing from paying Josh Smith that much for 7 years?

To avoid making yet another post about this: SERIOUSLY WHAT ARE YOU DOING PISTONS THIS DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. WHY
