Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted February 15, 2017 I feel like Boston wants someone who will come off the books. Boston could use Vuch for sure but i think they would rather have a temporary fix and try again in the offseason. The other thing is they have to include Amir to make the money work. If they are trying to make a run this year, they would rather trade for a depth piece and keep Amir. I think the Vuch to Boston rumor was a smokescreen to help themselves get a better deal with Ibaka. A three team deal with Dj or Watson might be the only other deal we make. Boston needs rebounding that's why they're interested in Vucevic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diplo 12 Report post Posted February 15, 2017 Any Drummond deal at the deadline is an extreme long shot, but Jackson remains in play for Minnesota, Orlando, New Orleans, or some mystery destination http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18686427/zach-lowe-andre-drummond-reggie-jackson-detroit-pistons Zach Lowe mentions us being linked to Reggie Jackson.

Janders 102 Report post Posted February 15, 2017 Zach Lowe's article today about Detroit talked a bit about us as a potential trade partner for Reggie Jackson (I'd post the link if I wasn't on mobile). I don't want that at all, I want a PG from this draft Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted February 15, 2017 The Pistons could target a distressed young point guard like Elfrid Payton or Emmanuel Mudiay, and snag a rental wing to make up the salary gap. Mudiay is available, per several league sources, though it appears Denver has no interest in Jackson. Orlando remains an intriguing fit; Rob Hennigan, the Magic GM, was part of the Thunder front office that drafted Jackson, and the team is starting freaking C.J. Watson over Payton.If Payton doesn't float Van Gundy's boat, the Pistons could reunite with D.J. Augustin. Jrue Holiday could ignite another point guard shuffle if he indicates he won't re-sign in New Orleans; the Pelicans have kicked the tires on Jackson, league sources say, though nothing ever got serious. They might even flip Jackson for an extra wing -- Mario Hezonja and filler, perhaps? -- ride out the season with Smith, and fill the point guard hole later. But wings are in demand, and teams aren't going to flip proven ones for Jackson right now. http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18686427/zach-lowe-andre-drummond-reggie-jackson-detroit-pistons Reading Lowe's article, he mentions us over and over again as a possible destination for Jackson. Honestly, I don't want that now. I want a PG from the draft in the worst kind of way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted February 15, 2017 I will say this about Jackson. He is the classic buy low candidate. His advanced numbers look solid until this year, he's still young, and his contract looks decent. Can he play both guard positions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nyce_1 311 Report post Posted February 15, 2017 I think I like Elf & Mario's potential more than Jackson. I could be a homer, but I don't think I'd give up those either of those 2 pieces for him. And the part about Rob being in OKC when they drafted Jackson made me cringe. Same thing was said about Ibaka, smh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd do that or something like augustin and some heavily protected pick that's likely to convey in 2020 or something like that if Detroit is really big on dumping Jackson.

Do you think they may unload Dre and would we want him? I don't think we'd have anything they'd want except a pick. Just expanding on this a little but I might be going to far here.

I don't know if you want a guy making max money that you cant play in the last 5 minutes of a game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
