I accept this deal. It sucks to have to say goodbye to Jennings, but I feel he is not the point guard we need for this team. While we can appreciate his ability to score the basketball, we need someone to come in and distribute the ball and shoot more effectively. With Knight we get a young prospect that hopefully can do something good. With Mayo, we get a legit 2 guard. Also, don't assume we forgot Mayo expires. We have a plan for him that hopefully in the next day or so you'll see what we mean.

Pistons Accept.

We get a legitimate second option to be our third scoring option (after Johnson and Monroe) to lead our team from PG. I was never a huge Knight fan, and Mayo is expiring after this season, and who knows if he'll fall off the map again after this season. I also get a great 3 point threat in Korver and a sneaky good backup PG in DJ Augustine to back up Jennings

This trade quite blantantly favours the Bucks in my opinion, but it doesn't particularly harm the Pistons so I accept.

I'm using this methodology because it would've been nice to have the same logic apply to my rejected trade with Detroit

[Walt Frazier]

This is waaaaaay different from that deal Ian, and I'm sure you know it.

In this deal, many of the players have value, and a lot of it, at that.

Jennings is the best player in the deal, IMO, but Mayo is having an awesome season and Knight is developing pretty well also. Other pieces are solid bench players, and there's nothing here to reject.

So, Accept from me too.

[Ian Noble]

I know I'm just being bitter

I still accept!

[Dominique Wilkins]

I Accept!

[Rubén Magnano]

I think the trade is acceptable but I don't like it for Pistons. Once Jennings becomes a FA, Pistons will have as much chances of signing him as any other team because they won't have his bird rights.

I like the deal for Bucks but i would rather keep Jennings. With that said, Knight has a long cheap contract and that is good. Also, Bucks have no use for Mayo but they should get good value back for him from a team trying to win now.


Ian, that trade with Pistons is only comparable to the other rejected trade Pistons made of Wallace, 2014 1st for Robin Lopez. ;D In fact, i think that trade was better.

[Ian Noble]

Trade passed.
