Trying to make sense of the Pistons trade for Nets guard Joe Harris. #pistons #joeharris #nets

  1. Why is everyone talking like Cam was our birthright. He's not going anywhere. Maybe at 30M AAV. But that's not worth that.

  2. It looks like the pistons are counting on Cade, Ivey, Duren, and others developing , maturing and getting better.

  3. It's something about this guy I don't like. He gives me butthole vibes. But a lot of stuff he says be the truth. Especially when it comes to Troy Weaver.

  4. How come Valenti doesn't get it that Nets would have matched any reasonable offer for Cam. There was no chance that he's coming to Detroit or any other team. So Troy decided to get Harris. Not that I'm excited about him (basically he's a younger and more injury prone Bojan), but this whole notion that Pistons helped Nets to keep Cam is flat out idiotic

  5. Did you see how much these guys signed for? Bruce Brown is getting 22 million a year. No thanks. Glad Detroit punted on this free agency and kept flexibility. The ticket does not understand the modern nba or the pistons as much as content creators

  6. No Mike, why the hell would they sign Cam Johnson for 25 mil a year… Im sorry that's to rich for my blood 🤮…. Cam is signing a 100 mil 4 yr deal… Be serious Mike

  7. No problem with the move. My problem is troy weaver and the pistons selling us a dream. We are AT LEAST 5 years away from being taken seriously smh

  8. This is a basic salary dump with picks for nothing. It's a pretty big win given how we need shooters around Cade. Much better than overpaying for mid players in FA long term.

  9. Glad Pistons didn’t overpay Cam but I would’ve been fine with them signing Rui for 50-60mil; seems like Troy dropped the ball trying to secure 2nd rd picks. Hopefully there’s a future move on the way!

  10. I like the move. Y’all overly pessimistic. we gave up nothing. This year we aren’t doing jack. 27-33 wins. Lottery pick. FA next year. Hopefully grab a forward there.
    This trade is good tho. Stop crying

  11. What is with the moronic GMs in this town? Both Yzerman and Weaver have made trades to accumulate junk in exchange for using our cap space and help other teams actually try to win

  12. We moved two seconds to move up and get Sasser, now got two seconds back for Harris…Back to square one. We’re kicking the can. Selling that to the fan base is tough. I didn’t need Cam Johnson but damn.

  13. NONE OF THE FREE AGENTS THIS YEAR WOULD DO ANYTHING TO MOVE THE NEEDLE!!!!

  14. The only guy worth money out there was Miles Bridges but you would get killed by the press going for him. This is an A+ because we didn't get robbed by buying in this chit market.

  15. Both you guys don’t know shit about basketball it is no point for me to explain this move to you people smh no basketball knowledge talk about hockey maybe you’re more knowledgeable

  16. Pistons are in the worst position with Cade, we need him to be good for this franchise to be good, but if we end up missing the playoffs you don’t want him to be Shai gilgeous Alexander or tyrese Halliburton good where they’re all stars/all nba and you have to pay Cade nearly 300 million

  17. Here's some sense to it. The trade was to offer 108M. Which is 27 million a year. Brooklyn matched the price. Cam Johnson wanted to stay in Brooklyn. Remember they already talked. More than likely Troy was in negotiation with them. So instead of taking nothing from this negotiations Troy decided to make the team part of it in order to get something better for this year. Otherwise another team would have did the deal and we will receive nothing. If you look at the board, trade board that is there's barely nobody on there that's valuable. Don't just listen to Somebody rant. That don't have insight. Or don't look at the whole big picture of it. Taking what they say with a grain of salt.

  18. Y'all complain too much!! Why do y'all listen to this New York native. He Don't really care about Detroit sports. He just making money. So of course he go sit there and rant. Like the Troy, New York native he is.
