    Would have just drafted another player with back issues probably.

    Parsons, D-Mo and now Dekker. Dwight too but we knew that coming in.

    What awful luck with injuries.

    Nah, the last time a trade went back for the Rockets it worked out pretty well.

    Dmo about to return and become the greatest PF ever.

    Peace out, 1st round draft pick. It was good while it was good. We coulda turned you into a late 1st round international player project, or a 6'6" PF or a piece in a sign & trade...but sometimes things just don't work out.

    Stay cool in D-Town.

    Count me in with the half that said it. Also count me in with those that think Dmo isn't going to make a difference on this team.

    I hope I'm wrong about Dmo.

    Biggest ray of hope we had for next year erased in a hail of gunfire.

    Pau and Nene getting rescinded worked out

    I really wanted another undersized PF that showed hustle and excitement through the regular season but gets routinely exposed during the playoffs.

    I had actually been looking into the draft. And now it's all for nothing.

    I dreamt that Kris Dunn would fall to us.

    It would have been happening.

    Whoever started this thread trend should be taken out back and beaten with a garden hose.

    We never got a chance to know you..to root for the demise of Detroit. But, still..let's be honest...you would have been dealt in the almighty Quest For Fire.
