That's cool for Detroit that they are still interested, but we're not interested in trading with them and have no reason to.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

Maxiell.

I'm not crazy about Maxiell and would prefer BBD.

What if we don't demand a player in return, only that their in game announcer that screams "Deeeeetroit baaaaaasketbaaaaaaall" so obnoxiously is fired immediately.

I'd do that deal.

One potential possibility is if Detroit wants to remain active in the FA hunt next year, they'd want resigned BBD, Scal, and Eddie for Hamilton to get out from his contract.

Well, I buy that they are still interested in him, I just don't think they have what it takes to get Davis, without involving a 3rd team.  For example, they could send Kwame or Maxiell (who I can't see the C's too interested in) to a third team, who are either under the cap, or have a trade exception (Miami could be an interesting option for Kwame with their trade exception, or Maxiell to Portland), sending a draft pick or something to Boston.

Ultimately, I don't think Boston makes a sign and trade for Baby, unless they get something more significant back.

Very interesting concept...

Why would they make the move for WIlcox then? I think this is coming from Baby's agent trying to stir the pot. He's got no options and its getting on in time.

I'd take Maxiell over Davis in a heartbeat.

Maxiell is a wrecking ball in the paint and havoc on the boards. Strong as a bull, and can jump and finish down low. He's everything Davis isn't.

Davis can knock down the open jumper. That's the only skill that Maxiell doesn't have.

Because Detroit has no clue what they are doing?  Seriously, from where I am standing, Dumars looks like a blind guy with hooks for hands, trying to put together a puzzle.  He is just grabbing pieces, and throwing them at each other, hoping they will fit.  

But yeah, you are probably right that it is coming from the Agent, but I am not putting anything past Dumars right now.

That's fine.  But I would rather have Joe Smith for the minimum, than either of them at $5 million a year for 4 years.
