the detroit pistons are ruining my life



the detroit pistons are ruining my life

And the Washington Wizards are finalizing a deal to trade Marvin Bagley Isaiah livers and two second round picks for forwards Danilo galinari and Mike muscala thanks W thanks for waking me up with that [ __ ] thanks I have never been a off-the-cuff trade reaction guy because historically I just have nothing

Interesting to say my takes are usually wrong and I usually end up having the wrong opinion this one’s not uh hard to have a wrong opinion on you want to know why I think it’s embarrassing there are moves there are dominoes that have yet to fall I understand that in the grand

Scheme of things this is the long game right what the Pistons just did is essentially a salary dump they got off Marvin bagley’s contract for two expiring on guys that weren’t making any money because what Detroit’s plan is is to go after guys in free agency like

Ogan and Obi and Miles Bridges right whatever that’s their plan they want to attack guys in free agency it hasn’t worked for Detroit in the past it doesn’t work for small Market teams free agency I’d argue isn’t even how these teams are building their rosters uh in

In 2024 that’s just not really the Avenue um I don’t know why Detroit is so hellbent on thinking that like well if we just pay somebody a ton of money they’ll come here I guess it did work for Monty Williams here’s why I’m upset the Detroit Pistons two years ago I

Should say Troy Weaver two years ago traded for Marvin Bagley great we were all on board with it most of us were because the idea was there’s an NBA player in here somewhere and we’re going to [ __ ] find him then Marvin Bagley gets paid by Detroit not a bad contract

At the time people were a little bit upset about it but as time has gone on more guys are getting paid it’s actually pretty favorable one okay um it works by the way Marvin Bagley becomes an NBA player if not this year then it was last

Year that it happened uh but we kind of are starting to see these moments of why the [ __ ] is Marvin Bagley getting healthy dnps in place of James wisman and Monty Williams goes oh yeah we just want to get a look at wisman for [ __ ]

What send him to the cruise he’s not an NBA player so Marvin Bagley is not playing in these games but James wisman is free to play like 40 [ __ ] minutes especially now right then we uh so two years ago we trade for Marvin Bagley all this [ __ ] happens and now we just give

Him away why am I upset about this Nick he’s a good player if he’s one of your only good players then that makes sense why you traded him because you wanted to get something for him I did want to get something for him we traded away two

Second round picks to get Marvin baggley and then we traded away two more second round picks to [ __ ] get rid of Marvin Bagley and oh we did all of that for uh let me check my [ __ ] notes again two more power forwards I know Troy Weaver has done

This thing in the past where he’s like people make like to make jokes about me liking centers and power forwards it’s not a joke I [ __ ] love them this isn’t funny this isn’t cute this is my life this is my [ __ ] basketball team you’re a little fetish or whatever the

[ __ ] this is you [ __ ] freak this isn’t funny the Pistons stink and I have to wake up to [ __ ] like this Isaiah LS is gone the Witch Is Dead oh no like awesome guy awesome guy awesome dude I would never say anything mean to his face but he’s not a good basketball

Player have fun with him Wizards what the [ __ ] why are these two teams making trades to begin with why are these the two teams of any of the teams in the NBA the Pistons and the Wizards are making a trade oh hey what do you guys got over

The Pistons could have looked at literally anybody in the NBA and they looked at the [ __ ] Washington Wizards and they were like you guys got some [ __ ] that we might want huh huh I guess it a salary dump sure maybe have fun [ __ ] fleecing Troy Weaver I guess

Other GMS in the NBA I don’t know maybe they’re gonna and here’s the thing and this is why I’m reluctant to even make this video to begin with is because there’s a chance that the Pistons do something out today I don’t know within the next few weeks that just makes all

Of this look like oh they were really playing like 3D chess I really doubt that that’s going to happen though because there hasn’t exactly Been A Moment Like This is a GM who’s operating with a gun to his head by the way he’s got a cyanide pill packed in like it’s a

[ __ ] Zin is what Troy Weaver is doing right now so from now until the end of the year literally anything that he does is under such a microscope because any deal could be the final blow uh for Troy Weaver as the general manager it doesn’t really seem like I don’t

Know I don’t understand the pick situation I still still don’t get it can’t trade a future first round pick because we owe one to the Knicks and until that conveys we’re [ __ ] out of luck and we can’t do anything how are we supposed to get anybody well management

Is going to tell you that they’re going to do it through virtue of free agency like we talked about at the beginning oh okay cool so what if that doesn’t work what if that doesn’t work what if OG’s like damn the Knicks like I’m winning a lot of games with the Knicks

This is actually really fun our offense looks sick nobody can stop me nobody can stop Jaylen Brunson why would I leave Detroit’s like um we have Monty Williams and cut to Monty Williams over in the corner like drinking a [ __ ] Capri Sun like kicking his feet in the air doing

Whatever the [ __ ] Monty Williams does during these practices during these games off topic how about Monty Williams being like this Jay Ivy kid isn’t too bad like somebody should give him more minutes it’s you [ __ ] that should be giving him more minutes it’s you we’ve been trying to tell you all

Year you’ve been the coach all year and you’re figuring out that Jaden Ivy’s on your roster huh he didn’t even know that [ __ ] baggley was on the team because they kept playing James wisman when baggley was actually you give him the ball while he’s moving Marvin Bagley is

Giving you 30 a game I swear to God Wizards fans [ __ ] watch give Marvin Bagley the ball while he’s moving and he is going to do some Voodoo [ __ ] to the other team this stinks this stinks we got two guys I like galinari here’s something don’t know if this is worth

Pointing out pretty sure that galar’s agent is arum’s son huh huh if I’m wrong I’ll correct it on the screen I don’t think I’m wrong though is there anything there is it like should that actually make us mad no I don’t think so it’s not like we’re

Going to pay galinari so it’s not like there’s actually some nepotism going on here I don’t think so I think it’s just a coincidence galinari is like a good body can make shots um really long Defender too I I kind of like ginari but not like this but not like this I don’t

Like galinari with all due respect Pistons made a trade in the long list of Trades that I’m assuming are yet to come and I hated the first one is the bottom line Marvin baggley is a Washington Wizard I am upset and the Pistons are not going to be fine

i dont have any more notes. nothing to read here. go to the comments or something.

  1. Trading lyles and 2 2nds for bagley just to then sign him to a bloated contract that we have to attach another 2 2nds for to get rid of is NASTY STUFF MAN. ANOTHER TROY WEAVER MASTERCLASS!!!!

  2. Just really quick regarding OG, he moved from Klutch Sports to CAA in the summer and apparently told the potential Agents that he'd take less money if he gets to play in New York. Also his Agent is Leon Roses son. I'd be more than surprised if he doesn't extend with the Knicks lol

  3. I have known for like 2 months that MB3 went over to management and said he wants out, so they benched him while they found a trade. It is the only explanation about why they continue to play wiseman over MB3.

  4. ''We were all on board with trading for Marvin Bagley'' is a sentence that instantly shows how your franchise is doing.

  5. At the very LEAST, having two more older vets for the remainder of the season could benefit the young core we want to see blossom into the potential they have. I'm grasping at the last remaining straws of positivity that I have with this franchise at this point.

  6. Sorry your team is a disaster but hopefully you can trade AB back to the Knicks lol. Also I’m pretty sure OG is a lock to be extended to the Knicks due to what appears to be tampering behind the scenes. The Monty Ivey comment killed me 😂

  7. Love these reaction videos.. don’t get me wrong I like coping hour, but these should be the bread and butter for the channel, not just pistons stuff ( I’m here for it tho) but the entire league. Coping hour should be a lil more structured, and not just long small talk bits lol. Still a fan either way. Keep up the good work

  8. Bro I know its just 2nd round picks but TWO 2nd round picks for salary dump??? My good God this team

  9. Troy Weaver making the Wizards marginally better so the Pistons can be trash all by themselves is a 183 IQ move

  10. When the best player in the Piston's trade – is the guy you are trading. We can't "trade" our way out of this – we have to develop this young college aged core – something Monty appears not to have the slightest interest in doing. WTF? On the plus side – thank god Livers is gone – because at least now Monty can't keep pretending Livers gives us a better chance of winning than playing Ausar.

  11. As a Detroiter and Pistons fan, imma just leave it to one emoji.

    🥲.

    (Still like Cade, Jade, Ivey, Ausar, As future pieces. Maybe Stewart as well I need to see how he plays for the rest of the season. Please just please trade Killian, on gawd)

  12. I’m somewhat engaged with pistons basketball purely because of Nick 😂 I’m a mavs fan

  13. Bagley needed to be moved seeing as they weren’t going to play him regardless of his production, for whatever reason. And, lowkey, Gallinari is a perfect fit for that offense. He’ll space the floor and actually see the floor because he’s a vet.

  14. I'm just sorry nick. Koffe and you were ranting about Bagley & now he's gone. Damn it hurts

  15. I can actually see your thumbnail now. Your only gonna get on the algorithm with recognizable faces in the thumbnail

  16. Jaden Ivey isn't that good. You can have everyone on that roster except Duren and Cunningham. Weaver is really bad.

  17. What are you talking about? Bagley isn't a good player. Weaver made a mistake and he his fixing it. That's what you when you screw up. Is OG is only player that's a free agent. Blame Monty for Ivey and Bagley not playing. You are ranting for no reason.

  18. As a 2016-19 era Suns fan I appreciate being able to live out masochistic bad basketball team moments vicariously through you 👍

  19. I know you feel like crap right now… Sorry to hear that… But, thanks for taking the time to talk about this and just say SOMETHING. It's helpful to fans, whether you'd think it or not, to just hear SOMETHING from SOMEONE at this point. And, even if you make a wild take once in a while… It doesn't ignore the fact that you have a good knowledge of NBA basketball and how things should and should not go. Everyone with brain cells to rub together can figure out that this was just a bad look. You essentially gave up 2 picks to get Bags and then gave away two more picks to get rid of him because you bid high on a guy no one else was betting high on. It's Troy's Charlie Villanueva. And I'm sick of these beat writers giving a pass… I'm over it man… Can someone have some balls and just call out the org? Anyone? It's insane the amount of spin that has been done. Only reason this deal happens is because Arn is doing his kid a favor by taking his broken client off a bad team to get a buyout. Anyway… Go LIONS!!!
