“Let’s talk about what might be, instead of what is.”  - - On this episode, Jordan Bellant and Ben Gulker are joined by Jacob Kuyvenhoven to discuss trade rumors and some intriguing fake trades put together by Jacob.  - - Starting with the much buzzed Reggie-Ricky swap (2:50), the guys discuss issues of fit and the idea of seeing the Pistons’ starting point guard in trade rumors.  - - Now, onto the world of make pretend. If the team was moving on from Reggie, what about for Goran Dragic (10:00)?  - - What about trading the back-up point guard? Two trades involving Ish Smith have him moving to the Lakers for Los Williams (15:15) and Brooklyn for Jeremy Lin (22:25).  - - Staying in the backcourt, Jacob brings forward a KCP+Baynes trade. The trio debates the idea of moving KCP for a better scoring two-guard (26:15).  - - Ben also discusses why Aron Baynes might be expendable at the deadline (32:50). Jacob brings up a spot to trade away Baynes (35:35).  - - Marcus Morris has a reasonable contract, but what can he bring back in a trade (38:35)? - - Jacob asks if the Pistons care about draft picks and if they ‘should’ care about draft picks (42:35).  - - Marcus Morris could be the type of asset to help the Pistons go younger: Like adding Mario Hezonja and a draft pick (45:50).   - - Next is “an interesting package for Tobias Harris” (51:10). That leads to a conversation about Harris’ value and how he fits on a championship contender. - - The last trade is centered (bad pun) around Andre Drummond (1:02:25).  - - The Detroit Bad Boys Podcast is a part of the SB Nation site, Detroit Bad Boys.
