It's not good enough to trade McDyess. I can understand Billups and a benchwarmer.

The guy is 33 years old. The Pistons aren't going to win with two volatile douchebags like Wallace and Iverson leading them.

Where they going to win if they hadn't made this move? The move allows them to still be competitive while setting themselves up financially to have more flexibility in the next offseason.

I think it makes them a little bit better but no, I don't think it makes them a championship team. I don't think every move should be made to make a team a championship team in that particular year. I think it's a good move for the future of the team without them having to have a drop off while making the transition.

Well you almost backed off.



Very nimble on your feet--you are.

I'll agree on the step back to go 2 forward..even if you don't.

The Cavs should finally win the division this year.

You guys know more than I in regards to the in's and out's of who is good for what team. I have been following him for a long time and just appreciate the effort he puts forth during games. No denying the guy plays hard.

They will probably win in the palace and a few games on the road.

They're not going to be contenders for quite some time. Dumars will be darted in two or three years.
