Would you consider Avery an option as a bench scorer?  I'd rather have Tyreke since he can create his shot and run the offense. 

Avery Bradley - G - Pistons
According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the Pistons have made Avery Bradley (groin) available in trade talks.

We CAN'T bring him back this season.

There's a restriction where we can not reacquire a player who we traded within the next/upcoming NBA season I believe (approximately 1 year). The restriction expires on June 30, 2018 (so after this season). Same applies to Isaiah, Crowder and others.

We can’t trade for him, since we traded him away during the current league year.

I really hope he ends up on a playoff team out west.

He makes a lot of sense on the Cavs and I think he would really hurt the Cs chances against the Cavs in a 7 game series.

He makes a lot of sense on the 7ers and combined with their young talent he could turn phili into a tough out for Boston.

Thankfully, I'm not sure the Cavs have the pieces to acquire him (since he isn't worth the BKN pick), but he would be awful for Boston on that team in the backcourt.  I don't want to see him on the Sixers either, as that would make them a very tough out in the first round.  And the Sixers clearly have the pieces needed to acquire him.  I think he would go well on the Bucks also.  Seems like the right sort of compliment to Bledsoe, Middleton and Giannis.

Could someone PLEASE change his last name to Bradley in the title?

I understand that the C's cannot bring him back.  However if they could, it wouldn't be as a bench scorer.  He would start in in Brown's place, Jaylen goes to the 3 and Tatum to 6th man.  Bradley would give the C's a fighting chance vs GS in a 7 game series.

It's literally not possible to bring him back.

And that ship has sailed imo. Time to move on.

Point being he's one of the few players who'd make a difference this season if you could add him.  I don't think there are many others.  Evans and that may be it.  I wouldn't at all be shocked if Danny does nothing with Haywood's injury exemption.

He makes a lot of sense for the Clippers

Over at Detroit Bad Boys, seems like a lot of fans want him gone and don't expect a significant return. The subheading for the article is literally "Adrian Wojnarowski delivers the news many Pistons fans had been hoping for." Ouch.

Would love to see him end up in OKC, but I don't think they have the pieces to move.

Cavs could do their own 2018 1st and Frye's expiring.

To be honest... Nah, not interested.

I loved Bradley, I appreciate his service, and watching him hawk on ball defenders to set the tone full court presses were immensely enjoyable to watch. (I'm very weird, but I love watching defense.)

But Bradley isn't that great of a player to be honest. It's no surprise that the Pistons are 3-17 in games he's played, and he has ranked the lowest in TPA for the Pistons. He's also been ranked in the middle, and even though he should have been one of our best defenders, statistically speaking, has always ranked extremely low. At best, he is your 3rd or 4th best complimentary player that can 3&D.

I'm convinced at his best, he'll put up Khris Middeton numbers, but he'll never ever step up to take that 2nd/3rd role on offense. He's just too limited in his ball handling to ever be able to get buckets, plus he has already missed several games to ever shake off the injury prone tag.

It's funny that reporters are saying the Pistons are expecting a significant return, when all they gave away was Morris and a second rounder. Morris was clearly not in their long term plans, but its ironic that its looking like Bradley isn't either.

The perfect place for AB is OKC. They just lose Roberson.

Too bad we can't get him back. He would fit right in.
