Lazarus Jackson (@lazchance) talked to Mark Schindler (@MSchindlerNBA) about the Detroit Pistons’ loss to the Indiana Pacers, and each team’s plans at the trade deadline.
That, in turn, became a discussion about Edmond Sumner’s progression, how much dominating the G-League is worth, Batman: The Animated Series, Isaiah Stewart being ready to fire from downtown, Henry Ellenson, Jerami Grant maintaining production even as his efficiency falls, Josh Smith, The Process Sixers, Saben Lee’s poise, why Captain America: The Winter Soldier makes so much more sense than Wonder Woman: 1984, the importance of developing talent in a non-glamour NBA market, how Sekou Doumbouya and Aaron Holiday are alike, how Caris LeVert helps the Pacers make the pieces fit, Saddiq Bey creating chemistry, and much, much more.
