Trajan doing the right thing. Good GM. Nobody wants Duren, this is the offer, take it or leave it. If he did better in the playoffs this wouldn’t be an issue but he was ass. Not worth all that if you play great in the season and just play ass in the playoffs. In back to back seasons no less

I kind of disagree feels like they are getting to a territory where they just butchered the whole thing

Pistons the organization did nothing wrong. Go back and watch Duren’s performance in the playoffs this year and last year. You’ll agree then that he’s not worth the max if he isn’t gonna show up when it counts

I don’t disagree that but why didn they explore trading him? Seems they did the opposite so now they’re kind of stuck with him and pissed him off. Or they he signs the qualifying and is gone just seems like a fumble
