So how do we reach the level Detroit is at?

I think our team is awesome but forever asked is the all imprtant question how do we reach that next most important level that Detroit has? I have some thoughts of my own but I am interested in what others think....

P.S. My take on Detroit in particular is that they hit that final elite level when they aquired Rasheed and I sure wish it had been us they really got a great deal on him too.

Get 4 borderline all-stars and have them play together for 4-6 years.

Detroit has had years and years of growing together. We're basically a team that's been together for a little over a year. We have to be patient. Oh, and getting another great player never hurts.

Entire personality and mindset of the team need to change first ...our team is for lack of a better term, the "softest" in the NBA...no exaggeration.

The Pistons core hang out off court as well. That's why they have such good chemistry.

Trade for a good swingman, and get a good center.

oh yes, we would like a bad boy. A guy that is going to run up to the stands and attack some fat boy. Yes thats what we need. A guy that comes to the Air Canada Centre, and takes the ball during a bad call and boots it really high. We need character guys, not guys with bad attitudes. By the way, I dont think a guy like Artest would want to play in Canada anyways. When he finds out he has been traded to Toronto, he is gonna go nuts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
