Anyone know how his defense is?
Average to below average.
Worse than KCP?
Much better than Kuz, that's all we need.
Better than Kuz lol. Worse than KCP. Imagine a slightly smarter version of KCP who shoots a bit better and never steals the ball....that’s him.
You had me at smarter version of KCP!
I dont care so much about man to man defense as I do about team defense.
If he's smart enough to just catch onto concepts and be able to rotate, I'll be happy. I can do w/o the off-ball steals that KCP used to do (not so much this year).
You guys should read the reaction from Piston fans and Pistons media... they are completely depressed by the move to trade Bullock
As they should.
Did you see the game winner he hit against Kawhi?
It’s good to make a trade that we are clearly the flat out winners, Magic and Pelinka get a A for the trade now let’s see what else they have up there sleeve.
Being on the Lakers will fix that quickly. He’ll be down to 68 percent from the ft line in no time. I’m also wondering how low his 3 point percentage goes now that he’s on the team. The Lakers are where shooters go to die, if recent history is anything to judge things by.
Honestly, solid pick up. Not a huge fan of giving up Svi and a 2nd rounders for him, but Bullock is a pretty good player and he’s a good catch and shoot guy. He can contribute, while Svi was mostly just riding the bench.
Surrounding LeBron James with shooters is a smart strategy, so it is no surprise the Los Angeles Lakers are interested in Reggie Bullock.
The 6-foot-7 wing was a first-round pick in the 2013 NBA Draft. He has been a fixture in the starting lineup for the Detroit Pistons, averaging 30.7 minutes per night. But as the Pistons have plummeted away from playoff contention, contending teams have reached out about what it would take to pry him away from Detroit.

Haven't got to watch him play a whole lot tbh but as long as he stays close to his current numbers it's a solid trade for sure! I think Svi is going to be a good rotational player for awhile in the league but he is clearly still a year or two away if he does get to that point.
Is he at least competent defensively for people that have watched him?

To be honest, the deadline trades Maglinka have made in the past have proven to be good.
- We wanted LouWill off our books for the tank, we got a pick for him which turned out to be Josh Hart (or Kuzma, as DLo trade haters say haha)
- We got Clarkson’s contract and Nance, who has been given an overpay for his extension, for two expirings in IT and Frye, as well as a first (Wagner)
- Now this. Bullock can contribute as a shooter straight away, possibly even in a starting role, and gives us flexibility to move some other pieces
Bullock will contribute in a good way for us in the road to the playoffs. The small caphold helps if we want to keep him in the future, too
