- Jalen Duren gets traded out of Detroit
“so it makes me think he's going to get traded”
Make your take
In context
Billbut I don't think you if those two guys together are making 28 and I have to pay Dern and Paul Reed
Billalmost 50 million bucks I just don't think that makes sense with the way the NBA is I don't think the position is valuable enough and it's too easy to be able to patch unless it's Jokic right if it's somebody on that level sure because now it's a superstar thing I think it's hard with the centers because you can play some of them off the floor you have situations like you had in the playoffs last year.
BillHis age is the right age, but it feels like there's bad blood, which sometimes doesn't go away. This has been a legacy of the NBA where sometimes the staring contest, like 30 years ago, Sean Kemp in Seattle, all of a sudden they were trading him because he was so mad that Jim McElveen was making more money than him.
BillAnd then they had just made the finals a year earlier, and all of a sudden he's getting shipped out. so it makes me think he's going to get traded yeah i
Goldsberrythink that's more real in the last couple weeks again since it got to media day and the roster and it's there's there is a staring contest it does feel like a trade and the thompson extension
Billwho got less than what duran wanted yeah they took care of the teammate and it was a better deal than the duran deal but that i don't think that helped either um how many
Goldsberryhow many players are worth five years 200 million dollars in this economy. In this economy, and again, he went from a 20 -point -a -game score in the regular season. Everybody had them all NBA, myself included, on my ballot. Yeah.
