Rumor: Billups for Harrington?

Stay with me here: The Warriors have been trying to unload Al Harrington (two years left worth about $20 million) and they need a point guard. The Pistons could offer Chauncey Billups, but they would want a lot more than Harrington back in return. The Pistons have notdiscussed this scenario with the Warriors, and they are not overly infatuated with Harrington.

So, depending who else came in the deal, this might be too much of a lateral move to excite Dumars.

Interesting...but what else would it take to get Billups to the Bay Area?

More than we should be willing to give.

These sorts of carefully researched and painstakingly verified reports make me very nervous about retaining our most important veteran leader, Al Harrington.

Warriors not going to give away anything but a straight swap.

If Detroit really wanted to dump Billups, Al is going to help shorten Billups' long/big contract.
