Fournier might get lucky that they need his contract for salary matching purposes. $18m expiring.

Could see us doing Fournier, Beef Stew and 5 for Herro and 15 or something.

Edit: maybe it doesn’t even need to be that much. Could be Duncan and 15 for Fournier and 5. I dunno. Pistons are a mess.

I wonder what they're going to do in free agency. They've got a lot of cap and a really, really bad roster.

Eh I don't think many people wanted Orlando Aaron Gordon. Didn't see him becoming this defensive-minded stud role player.

Not even Denver foreseen him becoming this good, nobody could. They just got lucky, which is the nature of 90% of great teams. Lets not wouldda couldda shoulda this playoffs to death

I remember I said it here before and I'll say it again. I can see Denver going into Minnesota and winning both games because we KNOW who Jokic is.

Aaron Gordon didn't "become this good". He's the same player. He's just being used to his strengths and not expected to be relied on to be their 1st, 2nd, or even their 3rd best player which was the expectation in Orlando. It's basically why Struss, Gabe, and Nunn and others look differently here vs other players. Some teams you just fit your role better.

Looks like a much higher IQ player here with more versatility on offense— maybe I’m imagining it, but I don’t recognize the guy who’s on the court now compared to before

As this is now firmly Ant's team, they should move KAT for some pieces that fit better. Could still get a decent haul for him.

Wow that Ant dunk :o
