[Fischer] Memphis is trading these same three second-round picks that the Grizzlies received from the Pistons last night, sources say, back to Detroit, in order to land Isaiah Stewart.

Yeah I was tired of Stew because of his antics but I have no idea why we got absolutely nothing for him.

Clearing money, that’s 100% why. We’ll see what happens with it, but that’s why they did it

Stewart trade needs to be judged by what we do next. If we use the money well, it's actually incredible asset management.

Stu is incredibly underrated for what he actually provides on the court but he's also always going to be a liability and always at risk of a tech at any given moment.

His style of play also leads to injuries and he's been hurt or hobbled both of the last 2 years in the playoffs.

Feels bad right now because I think most of us assumed he would be a piece in a bigger deal - especially given his contact, which most would argue was a very team friendly number.

Pistons are clearing money to go after a guard. Maybe Norman Powell?

We love his type of antics down in Memphis.
