POP: After Dark Palace of Pistons

Spin this thing on 1.2x speed for the best experience.
Tim and Jasper run through the NBA trade market, and the Pistons place in it (1:12) before discussing the Pistons’ biggest need on the roster (and if Cade is the right guy to fill it).
And then… we run through increasingly chaotic fake trades including Saddiq Bey, Russell Westbrook, Jaden Ivey, DeMar DeRozan and an actually realistic Kevin Durant trade (in which the Pistons sneak in the backdoor to acquire a different star and build a statue of Troy Weaver in the process). (14:51)

Spin this thing on 1.2x speed for the best experience.
Tim, Aaron, and Donovan discuss Killian Hayes’ recent stretch of great play, along with just how much of a cutie pie he is. Then, we discuss how Lions Brain has corrupted our viewpoint of the Pistons — drawing parallels between the front offices and #1 picks.
The main event: Tim puts Aaron and Donovan through a cursed Pistons trivia game with no winner. We’re talking Dwight Buycks, Jordan McRae, Cheick Diallo level CURSED.
