That's too much unless you were never planning on re-signing Bradley and have a decent amount of protections on the pick. Of course maybe i'm overvaluing Harris and being too harsh on Blake Griffin's injury history.
Harris and Bradley both would've required the max from Detroit within 1-2 years.
Feel bad for IT. He's only a shell of his former self. Hope he gets closer to 100% by the playoffs.I like his heart, but IT does not have a good history of being accountable when things go sideways:

He is far from the only one playing poorly, but he should at least acknowledge that he could do better on both ends.
The real issue with his D is that it is SOOOOOO bad that Stevens created elaborate schemes to hide him. Lue doesn't have the defensive creativity to do the same, so IT just gets exploited whenever the other team feels like it. Unless you can hide him on D, he's unplayable against most teams.
Good news, @torontoduke, Jamal Murray is now the best Canadian player in the NBA, so you don't have to hitch your moose-wagon to Wiggins' train wreck career anymore.
We all need to seriously gird ourselves for the growing likilihood Tatum will be in that shithole franchise in New Orleans sooner than later. Just hope that he can blossom in spite of their awful front office. I think the Cousins achilles injury really changed the calculus in a big way.
Kyrie and AD as a new age Kobe/Shaq duo without the egos will help ease the pain, though. Maybe we get lucky and one of the 10000 nba players coming througb duke the next few years finds their way onto the roster as well.
