I think they'll help whenever they get healthy. Btw, When's that happening again? Lol

I still am one of the few who believes Spencer can be something. He athletic. Shot looks nice even if the results haven't been great haha. He can defend with his size. Blake has to be replaced, I think we can all agree on that.
And Meeks. Oh Meeks. I think it's just about time you gave us something for the money we gave you. We desperately need his shot off the bench.

Im not even sure Meeks will play over Hilliard when he gets the medical clearance to start playing. Dinwiddie? I'd love to give him another shot over Blake but I doubt it happens.

Pistons need to move on from Meeks, and view Dinwiddle as a combo guard. If Spencer is 200 lbs like his ESPN page says, i would add some muscle/weight to about 215.

I'm surprised we didn't move Meeks at the deadline - take on higher salary for some team that was paying the lux tax. Dinwiddie doesn't cost much so not a big deal - hopefully he gets better.

We probably thought about it...until we landed the Thorton/D-Mo trade. Why pay someone around $6 mil a year or more, when Thortons only on the books for less then $1 mil for this season.

Dinwiddie is a scrub... and the only thing grand about him, is his ego. IMHO

Meeks is done in the D. Hillard is going to pick up Meeks' slack.

Spencer seems to be a project SVG is committed to developing.

Anyone know the timeline on Meeks returning?

From a Det News article a few weeks ago:

Stan Van Gundy was not optimistic about Jodie Meeks (fractured right foot) making a meaningful impact for the Pistons this season.

"We’re backing off until March 1; for practical matters, it’s really hard to see him being able to get back and make much of a contribution this year," Van Gundy said

The latest from Rotoworld (feb 18th):

Jodie Meeks (right foot) was able to make it through a full practice on Thursday.

Meeks will remain on the inactive list for Friday's game vs. the Wizards, but this is certainly an encouraging sign in his recovery from a fractured foot. That being said, he's likely going to be brought along very slowly in Detroit, in addition to battling Marcus Thornton for reserve minutes once he is up to speed, so there's little reason to stash him in most settings


Seems like he could be ready to go anytime now

Dinwiddie hasn't exactly been lighting the D-League on fire this year.
