The Pistons can do better than this proposed B/R trade with Spurs

The Detroit Pistons have one glaring problem with their roster that will have to be addressed before next season.

They have four centers who will all be chasing minutes, two of them have fairly redundant skills and they are paying $25 million for two backups, which is not a smart allocation of cap space in the modern NBA.

Please find me a good team that has $25 million in cap space tied up in two backup centers who can’t shoot. I’ll wait.

Troy Weaver has repeatedly (which scares me) talked about playing two bigs as necessary to compete in the Eastern Conference, but if he’s been watching the playoffs he’d know that none of the top teams are doing it.
