Pistons may unite Cade Cunningham, $197 million 23.2 PPG Grizzlies star via wild Jaden Ivey swap | Sporting News

The Detroit Pistons could perform a blockbuster trade with the Memphis Grizzlies this offseason.

Would be awesome to see Zach and Jaden on the same team...again.

Just a speculative article that is throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks. So likely there will be a million of these articles about every team in the NBA and then nothing will happen.

Not sure how highly JI is thought of within the Piston organization, but as successful as that team’s season has been this year, I can see them considering a move for an efficient, productive and playoff experienced veteran.

JI had a very good season through 30 games and should be able to bring a terrific return to the Pistons. I personally see him being a bit stifled (Edith) playing with Cunningham. He might welcome a move to a more, pass first oriented PG.

Dang man at least let the OP believe in santa clause for a little while before you crush their dreams!

It actually makes some sense. I've felt like Ivey and Cunningham don't play well together for whatever reason. Cunningham really took off this year, coincidence or not, after Ivey got hurt. He's dominating now.

Now, I don't think trading Morant is necessarily a good thing for Zach, but pairing him back up with Ivey might be the best swap. The question for Memphis is whether Scotty Pippen Jr is ready for a lead role. Then your starting 5 is Pippen, Ivey, Bane, JJJ and Zach.

Both Morant and Cunningham are completely ball dominant guards. No way they co-exist. And gutting the pistons future for 1 player is not where the Pistons are. Nice growing young team that needs a couple more pieces.
I think Jaden may well be traded for other pieces, but not for another pg when this is Cunningham's team.
Grizzleys have an excellent young team but something is going on there. They were the best team in the West and it all went south even after getting Jaren Jackson Jr back. Morant has turned into a pretty excellent teammate ON THE FLOOR this season, forgoing some of his scoring and showing superb passing ability. Amazing athlete, beyond Jaden I think. But if lockerrom troubles are the problem someones got to go.

Yeah. You have to wonder if an actual NBA-watching human wrote this…

Loosely kept tabs of Memphis this year due to Zach being on the team. Morant was out A LOT. Bane was out quite a bit at the beginning of the year. Memphis likely would have had a much higher seed had they been healthier throughout the year.

And if they figured out how to fully utilize Zach.

So is actually typing "TIC" still required? Thought it was obvious. Apparently not.

Wait...what are you saying about Santa???

If Memphis can get that much for him they'd be stupid not to make the deal. Morant is probably the most overrated player in the NBA. He's as soft as a feather pillow. Punch him in the mouth early and he'll disappear. He's a team chemistry killer. He'll never win a championship unless he manages to get on a team with several future hall of famers to carry the load.
