The most important thing for the Pistons here is they get the cap space they want so desperately. It is key to their rebuilding and could help a lot. L.J. Rose is rotting on the Pistons sitting on the bench and I am giving Turner and Sain who are also pretty good bench pieces (looking at their numbers). Expirings(for cap space) and good bench players for a 17/9 PG who doesn't fit into the Pistons game plan.

I have to preface this with a little admission. I had some really crappy things happen almost two months ago that put me in a really bad mindset. so I kinda went through the motions earlier in this season and made some questionable decisions with my team. A huge draft mistake and a few aimless trades. Night before last was the first time I sat down and really looked at my team and what direction I wanted to go in. It was a mistake trading for Rose in the first place, and trading away my sure lotto pick this year complicated things. I've been trying for the last few nights to trade LJ Rose because with him being dealt for expirings it gives me almost 30 million in cap room to work with this offseason. In order for me to be competitive without my draft pick, this is what I need to do. So I get Sun who will likely be a third string guy, and I get a backup PG that actually deserves to be a backup. I also get a handful of seconds which I don't mind because the last couple of years I've gotten pretty lucky with my 2nd round picks. The most important thing for me as a GM is the fact that this is the move that I feel gives me the best chance to be competitive next year and beyond. I keep a decent core together, and hopefully if this passes I'll be able to make a splash or two in FA.

LJ Rose is worth more than 2nd round picks and expirings on players you just openly admitted are role players. You can find a better way to get rid of Rose's contract imo.

Given the fact LJ rose was traded for a top 5 pick THIS season and I saw it as fair value shows you what I think of him so... (N) you can atleast get something valuable I know you want to free up cap but you can be patient and find the right deal not just a pure rape for a solid pg which don't grow on trees
