When the Detroit Pistons traded for Blake Griffin, this was pretty much the worst-case scenario for how it would end.

Blake is a shadow of his former self, making huge money and now has an untradable contract that does not match his production.

The Detroit Pistons and Blake Griffin have reportedly agreed to attempt a trade or buyout, with the latter being the far more likely option.

The Pistons only made the playoffs once during Blake Griffin’s tenure, so it can’t be considered a success, but fans grew to love the Alpha Ginger because he was a pro the entire time he was here.
