Beef stewing intensifies
That’s a fun contract but my god they have so many centers
BEEEEEEF
Crazy how much these guys are making nowadays
Is he good?
The price for beef stew just went up
That’s 8 mil total more than Austin Reaves 💀💀
Thats potentially a steal if his shooting continues to improve.
Hopefully this means Weaver has noticed improvement during the off season. He’s a serviceable role player so good to see that the pistons retained him.
Let’s hope his three point shot can come around so he can turn into beef curry
Throwback to when he wanted to kill Bron
Seems like a solid deal. If he improves a bit it’s a steal, if not it’s not really that bad either
Every team needs a LeBron killer
I just remember the time this dude legit went psycho on the court after a hit to his face and tried to fight LeBron for what felt like a solid like 5 minutes. Took a small army to stop him and even when he ran into the tunnel there was fear he was still trying because the tunnels connected to each other. Wild night.
Now he’s getting PAID
I remember him in college. Been following him a little bit and I think it’s a good deal. He’s still young too.
He really getting extended because he wanted to murder lebron I love this city
My man
Seems like a good deal. ~11% of the salary cap. Crazy, but $15-17MM/year just seems like average money for a 5th starter or 6th man type player.
Lebron shaking while reading this
Teams like det NEED pure competitors and he’s one of the few In the league
The corner three he hit against us (Orlando) first game of the season last year to win the game made me nauseous.
That being said he plays his role well and has continued to develop it. Congrats to beef stew
Just seeing that number gives me PTSD from Mozgov
If you’re paying him that kind of money, then he’s gotta fit in at the 4. They got a stable of 5s. Duren deserves his starting 5 position too.
Mitch Robinson contract so hot right now
Mans went from bloody running to money coming.
I remember seeing him vs the Hawks his rookie year and he’s presence was def felt in the game. He reminds me of PJ Brown with a potential for a 3 ball
He originally was blazers pick and I think we traded it to houston in the ariza trade or in the covington trade.
Great deal in my biased opinion. Young guy with the intangibles on lock. Even if he doesn’t live up to this amount, with the cap increases a contender may try to pick him up when he’s expiring for some defense/hustle off the bench
wish he was on the Suns
Why does r/nba treat any team that hasn’t had recent playoff success like a barren wasteland lol. The comments here are ridiculous.
