 I don't have an answer but Drummond looks great and we could use him. So how do we get him?

We don't. There is zero chance they trade a young, highly talented center with huge potential on a rookie deal. Zero. Nada. No shot.

same for Lebron and Durant -- what's your point?  teams with great players or prospects don't trade them unless they're getting someone better or have no choice.

neither situation applies

Trick question. We don't get him.

We literally can't. Nearly on that Anthony Davis untouchable level.

Taking this at face value, I think we could get Drummond and Josh Smith for Rondo, Sullinger, our pick this year if it comes up top 3 in the lottery, and our highest unprotected 1st rounder in 2015.

Wait for a time machine to be developed, retain our 20/20 hindsight vision then return to the draft and trade Pierce for the Warrior's pick.

Yeah there's literally no way... I can't believe he fell to 9 still. Many teams kicking themselves

Injure his knee so badly that he requires microfracture surgery.  Then he might be available.

Wait for him to become an UFA and sign him to a max contract

Nice. TP.

Not trying to be snarky but if Drummond is all that great why does Detroit suck so much? Is it the bad fit of all their parts? Is it that Drummond may be a beast on the boards and within 5 feet of the basket but lacks other skills? Everyone always talks about Drummond as if he's the most desirable player in the league. Is he going to turn us into a championship team overnight? I don't get it. Just wondering.

Put Lebron with Jennings and Smith and Lebron would never win a title.  It's not Drummond's fault that his team is so poorly put together.  Don't forget how young Drummond is also.

Anthony Davis' team has been bad the last two years.  KD's team was bad his first two years.  LeBron didn't make the playoffs his rookie year.

His team being bad is not an indictment on him.
