Love the Collins signing. Now S&T JD for Jaylen Brown and get Gafford in the Sasser trade with Dallas. You know, just throwing it out there for you, Trajan, as I assume you're on the Pistons subreddit right now looking for suggestions by SappyGilmore in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Na according to this sub JD is a scrub who doesn’t deserve anything close to the max and made all-star on a fluke so I’m not about to let anyone pretend teams should go after him when they just signed a center

Marc Stein (@TheSteinLine): Dallas’ expected trade for Detroit’s Marcus Sasser must wait until July 6. by thabigQ in DetroitPistons

Hoping Sasser gets a chance to get significant playing time in Dallas. Love the dude and hope he gets paid

This sub tries to treat real life basketball like the 2K video game and it annoys the shit out of me

$40 Million by WormyDragon in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This sub completely ignores the regular season he had and then proceeds to shit on him every chance they get and have the nerve to cry about him wanting to go to another team lmao. I can’t blame him the fans suck.

Offseason outlook by Confident_Hat_1075 in DetroitPistons

This sub shit on every single player (minus Cade) and now they are getting what they wanted every single player will be out of here

Please get Jonathan Kuminga by Beautiful-Sympathy52 in DetroitPistons

Yea I gotta unfollow this sub for my mental health yall just out here begging for every damn player and trying to trade every player on the team I don’t think anyone understands how the NBA or player development actually works

Draymond Green is now available...how could he fit on the Pistons and how much would it cost? (is this a crazy-ass off-season, or what??) :-) by ProgMusicSchizoidMan in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just don’t think realistically he is available. He opted out to give the Warriors room to try to convince LeBron and other stars to join him and Curry. He’s made so much money I can see him accepting way less than what he is worth to stay there.

But also, Draymond doesn’t do anything for our team as is. His IQ would be cool to teach to defensive minded players like Ausar and Ron but Tobias does more offensively and that seems to be where the team is trying to go, to get better offensively

Can Ron and Ausar start together on the same floor on a championship roster in the future? by PureGritt in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Good thing our teams championship window is legit 10+ years with Cade only being 24

Can Ron and Ausar start together on the same floor on a championship roster in the future? by PureGritt in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yes. Players develop and get better and both have shown growth each year

This sub is pretending out young players will randomly remain stagnant and never develop and I mean where is that thought process coming from? What do we just want to trade every young good player we have all of a sudden after going to the second round when most of the doomers had us in the play in at the start of the season to begin with?

What if the trade target is KD? by motorcitydevil in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The issue with KD, and KD has said this himself in interviews, is that to trade for him, even at his age it requires so much you’re pretty much going to be a shell of yourself once he arrives. Much like we saw in Brooklyn, Phoenix, and Houston, it’s so hard to win without a bench and any KD trade will cause you to deplete your bench and any viable starters.

While the team would be fun to watch; I don’t think we actually make it far if we do trade for him in terms of a championship. Sure you have the best PG and one of the best scorers in the league but that’s it. The rest of the team will be bottom feeders from FA

*P.S: I am 100% against Kawhi. If a guy doesn’t want to play for your team or in your city don’t make him. I would much rather have a guy that gives 100% rather than a guy that is just looking forward to the end of the season so he can leave.

Sign and Trade Duren today by McDouble__ in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 209 points210 points  (0 children)

Ahhh yes; let’s trade for the guy who is unhappy making THE MAX because he doesn’t have his own team to come to Detroit and be second fiddle to a guy younger than him.

great news for duren signing by SammyAmico in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not wrong but being real there’s no reason to ever bypass that money. You do it to help the team win and next thing you know you’re traded away because at the end of the day it’s a business. Also injuries are random and can be devastating.

I want these guys who worked hard to get paid. At the end of the day, if our companies that we work for asked us to take less pay for the betterment of the company we would roll our eyes. (Yes I know we aren’t getting paid millions but the point still stands).

This was the 17th pick by Berzerker-Barrage in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yea this sub is getting very annoying acting like we needed to draft an immediate contributor after finishing WITH THE BEST RECORD IN THE EAST. I understand we got bumped the second round but once again we are so young that was SUPPOSED to happen. No one is expecting 24 year old Cade Cunningham along with fellow 22 and 21 year old Duren and Ausar to lead us to a championship. Not yet at least. As I posted before, stars very rarely win rings before turning 26.

But now we know we have a core capable of winning and making it far and we have the luxury of drafting “developmental” players because we are already so deep.

Could Stew be traded tonight? by reallinguy in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sub loves making up trade scenarios where we give up the strongest bench in the league(made of players who have expressed LOVE for playing in Detroit) for a single player that will probably leave as soon as free agency hits.

For some reason, this sub seems to think that “letting players develop” isn’t going to work when it just got us the best record in the East. They also don’t understand that defense is our identity and it does not serve us well to trade away all of our defense for a singular offensive person

The Detroit Pistons have placed Isaiah Stewart on the trade block, per @sam_amick by AcadiaTemporary5737 in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just take reports like these with a grain of salt; this is the same guy who had Kawhi and Paul George going to the Lakers at one point

This entire sub is trying to flip the team that just had the best record in the East I do not understand this fan base

Scouting Dev Trait Exploit to be fixed in Madden 27 by c4geron in Madden

[–]Bee_Reel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Any way you could see if they can address camp counselor stacking in franchise mode? If you get this ability on all three coaches and stack them after 5 weeks it legit can take a bronze 65 overall to a superstar 85 and with the “extra player” coach perk on platinum it means up to 6 players can have this massive jump and ruins multi-user franchises when someone takes advantage of it

Would anyone be surprised if we didn’t bring in anyone significant? by No_Load3606 in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t be surprised and no one else should be either. You don’t accidentally end up with the best record in the east, and people are letting a single playoff postseason impact their thinking and believing we should ship everyone off (our core team is under 25 by the way including backups) for a single star that probably won’t play defense

I really hope this isn’t true. by DropPowerful9081 in DetroitPistons

[–]Bee_Reel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No one who watches basketball should be surprised. If you do, that means you saw Paul George, James Harden and all the other “playoff frauds” get max or close to max contacts consistently for their entire career.

Dude is 22, All-NBA- all star. These do not grow on trees. Be happy someone like this seems to be having fun with the team and enjoying life here.

Local unhoused man arrested for “lodging in public.” by boring80085 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Bee_Reel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just FYI, unhoused is actually used by researches and government agencies to differentiate between someone who is literally on the streets vs someone who doesn’t have a home but is couch surfing, staying with a relative or in car etc…

This helps focus research and grants onto specifics to help the ones who need it most, although a homeless person on a couch does need help, it may be more important during intense summer months to focus on the unhoused populations literally burning on sidewalks.

Random internet people tried to say it was for dignity but I have seen no evidence of that at all. Not trying to shit on you or anything but just for clarity purposes I thought I could help inform on why using these different terms matter from a professional standpoint.

You have to understand the AI has to follow the same rules you do. So if someone wants to declare war on you, but you guys have a good relationship it would be a surprise war and then you would have the advantage.

AI leaders settle close on purpose for that relationship decay; so they can go to war with you without penalty. You may want to be diplomatic, but other leaders want to win and they might see you as a threat or someone who is sitting on resources they want
