    They did speak to each other early in the process and whatever was said made our front office refuse to engage at any point after that. I think it was like Herro, Duncan Robinson, Jovic and a protected first... that's a guess but it seems about right.

    Detroit got a little chuck happy, but they're not out of it. Brooklyn up 7 at the half.

    Brooklyn's Sharpe is cleaning the glass, this game is getting away from Detroit.

    Cade having a fantastic game, the Nets keep hitting clutch triples. Detroit needs a miracle.

    Maybe paying 25M to Bagley and Wiseman this year is not a good idea.

    Is that a new record or just a tie?
    And this is in one season not stretched through two.

    New single-season record.
    Over 2 seasons is 28 losses.

    Memphis, Chicago, and Utah all win. Starting to get a little separation with the bottom 5 and the rest of the pack.

    Pistons are about to sell low on at least one young player, probably Ivey. Someone is going to get a good young prospect for cheap.

    In fact, wasnt it known that we had to wait on Jaquez for 30 days anyway and then as the time came it was clear he wasnt?

    the thinking was Riley signed Jaquez immediately so he couldn't be traded for 30 days

    the only semi-concrete rumor I heard was Herro + Robinson + two picks (which was all Miami had). And it's likely Riley was demanding protections on at least one of the picks

    your Lakers probably would; they are 3-0 against the Suns this season. Kings are 2-0
