The thing is...Detroit isn't tanking or doing anything like that. They are the case study on why you shouldn't put all your eggs in that basket. The reality is that if Detroit had everybody, they still would struggle against the Raptors bigs (Poetl is bigger and more experienced than Duren and can basically push him around and their other bigs are 6'9 or shorter). At some point, you need size.

An Inadvertent tank. They have been collecting pieces for years.

Well... we lost the toilet bowl tonight. Barnes had a nice game.

I PVR’d it and had it on in the background while marking and Barnes was great. Mitchell drives me nuts. Hopefully Shead can take over from Mitchell at some point this year.

I really like Mogbo. Wasn’t a fan of the pick but I like his tools.

I think they will increase Shead's minutes as time goes on. Mogbo same.

I still believe Barnes can be a #1 guy on our team when they contend.

In a perfect world, I would love to see some actual attempt at roster building (ie go out and acquire someone who could play the 4 and help the team in the case where they step up to the podium at the draft and the best kids available are either PG or SG).
