The Toronto Raptors are exactly where the Detroit Pistons don’t want to end up, which is with a bunch of highly paid players who aren’t worth the contracts.
Toronto has made several questionable moves that are the exact type the Pistons need to avoid: They rewarded Immanuel Quickley with a massive contract extension that immediately raised some eyebrows. They did the same with Jakob Poeltl, who is a nice player, but is he worth $29 million worth of cap space?
They traded for Brandon Ingram in a move that I was so happy the Pistons didn’t make, then extended him before watching him sit on the bench for the rest of the season.
