    Is not that good to do the trade. Not "is not that good he has to play D League".

    So does him averaging 2-4 ppg less than you think he should average make him "just not that good"?

    Are you basing your entire opinion on his averages or have you spent much time watching him?

    So your opinion is that Drummond should be in the G league?

    No, Ive seen him a few times. He's a pretty decent player. Leading rebounders in the league who make the all star team and 3rd team all NBA usually aren't classified as "just not that good"

    Meyers Leonard is just not that good

    People tend to over exaggerate in their assessment of players. I will say that most of the Pistons fans I have seen are not very high on him. I think it's mostly about effort.

    That gets me thinking....

    Was it he on Lamb, or Lamb on him that questioned effort during that draft?

    On the contrary, I think Drummoned is a fine basketball player.
    However I find him highly overrated. His rebound numbers are inflated due to his lack of desire to play defense. Reminds me of Kevin Love in Minn.
    His shooting % is horrible for someone whos majority of attempts are inside of 10 ft.
    The capper I think, is Drummoned is supposed to be an elite defensive Center. However Mason Plumlee had more blocked shots last year... In about 300 less minutes as well.

    Neil can talk like a true salesman but that doesn't make a good GM.

    Hibbert.
    Parsons.
    Kanter.
    Turner.
    Leonard.
    Crabbe.

    Maybe it's a good thing Neil doesn't have the cap room to play around with - PJ Tucker would be a Blazer ......on a max deal.

    Stupid Trade-o-da-day:
    If Crabbe waives his trade kicker....

    Crabbe ($18.5, 19.3, 18.5)
    for
    Bazemore ($16.9, 18.1, 19.3)
    straight up.

    Blazers get a 3 and D starter right away.
    A rebuilding Hawks team replaces a 28 yo starter with a 25 yo replacement.
    Crabbe waives kicker in order to start, something he'll never do in PDX.

    I was looking at Bazemore.... his numbers are unimpressive.

    So, we should trade Crabbe for someone with impressive numbers? Bazemore is a much better defensive player than Crabbe, at least by reputation.

    He is a better defender then Crabbe but he isn't an amazing defender. Crabbe has upside while Bazemore is pretty much what he is and his 3p is merely okay.
