Would you guys trade for Alston?
I just saw the wiretap article about how he always expects it. I would love him as a backup, though i'm sure he would want a bigger role. Pretty sure he's any upgrade from Bynum.
What would it take?

Rip Hamilton is a stain on the Pistons franchise.

Re: Would you guys trade for Alston?
nah, Bynum may not be as good but for how much he's getting paid, he's a steal...

Re: Would you guys trade for Alston?
My interest falls slightly above the guy three guys above, but less than the 2nd, 3rd, and 5th guys.
Tom Gores' Securus faced a class action lawsuit in 2024. The company engaged in a "quid pro quo kickback scheme" with county jails in Michigan which banned in-person visits in order to maximize revenue from voice and video calls.

Bynum > Alston.

Re: Would you guys trade for Alston?
My level of interest is just a c hair above GenshiYagyu's interest, but below the guy above him.
But seriously, the guy seems to be bench cancer unless (and some would say) even if he is the starter.

Re: Would you guys trade for Alston?
Not particularly a fan of his, and obviously he'd just be a one year rental. If we really wanna upgrade from Bynum I'd rather somebody who can grow with the team long term. But I'm actually OK with Bynum. He's not great or anything, but the price is right. I'd rather we spent money upgrading our starting frontcourt before we worry about backup guards.

Re: Would you guys trade for Alston?
Guys, he's a good player.....average starter.....
But no, I wouldn't trade for him, he wouldn't fit here with Stuckey/Bynum already here.

Re: Would you guys trade for Alston?
Bynum is a perfect backup PG, someone who can score with the 2nd unit, and who is really cheap. We don't have a legit starter at PF or C - we need to deal with those huge holes first.

Why do you want to move Alston? To try and have a chance to clear up more cap room to Keep Turkoglu?
