this seems like a fair deal to me

I approve.

Why would Detroit do this? Wallace is a somewhat different player but not better. Prince is a better shooter, better in some ways on defense and still a young player (28). We'd have to give up more in some sort of combo deal. I know the Pistons might be willing to make some changes but Prince would be among the last players they'd want to part with.

Wallace has more ppg apg and rpg than Prince...whats the point?

Prince is a better player and not a liability due to concussions?

Not all about stats, because Prince is definitely a better defender and jumpshooter, and would have better productivity with increased oppurtunities. Different situation with the Pistons because of the depth and kind of team they have had.

I would definitely consider this trade and if it happened I'd be good with it.

Wallace also has a better block % and steal % than prince....I do agree that prince is a better shooter.

Can everyone please give there opinions of Crash's offensive game. His weaknesses and Strengths.

Prince>Wallace.
Prince is the fourth option in Detroit so his focus was mainly of defense. Wallace is the first/second option for the Bobcats so of course his numbers will look better.

Very good attacking when attacking the basket. He's become a better FT shooter. He's become a much, much better shooter from 3, but he put up a TON of bad ones this past season--I'm not sure if it was because of Vincent (or rather, to spite Vincent) or his contract... or I guess he could've really thought they weren't bad shots, though this seemed pretty obvious to observers. I don't remember him taking many midrange shots at all. He has a respectable handle and is the biggest scoring threat when fearlessly attacking the hoop.

Avalon- Block and steal statistics are indicators of hustle, not defensive effort/skill.

As a Piston fan, I seriously consider this trade. How serious is Wallace's concussion history?

AvalonNick · Post #13 » by **AvalonNick** » Sun Aug 17, 2008 10:27 pm

wallace averaged about 4 more minuets a game than Prince.

Crash took 3 more shots a game than Prince.

Prince took the 2nd most shots for the Pistons. He also played the 2nd most mpg.

For the record.

Crash has had a couple of concussions but mostly it's been banged up body parts from his hard play, or injuries suffered as a result of trying to play the 4. He can do that in stretches but is much preferred at the 3.

Perhaps this is a trade that would benefit both teams based on each group's player mix. I would be for it as I think Prince and J-Rich would compliment each other's game. With a powerful PF to go with Okafor, this group would be a contenda!

Somewhat what I was thinking. Not that "Which player is better"" but rather more along the lines of "Does Prince fit better for Charlotte and Wallace fit better for Detroit?" Personally, I think Wallace is a better fit in Detroit but I don't know enough about your situation to say if Prince would be better for you guys.

both these players are a wash...trading wallace for prince does not make us a better team...we may be better on defense but we are worse on offense...i would pass..but if you can get amir and prince for wallace and someone else from us then i would do it

Post #18 » by **roc** » Mon Aug 18, 2008 6:22 pm

Yeah cuz Amir will add that extra bit of offense. :noway:

Not gonna happen. Joe D has put 'sacred cow' status on Stuckey but Amir is just behind him in that department.

countryboi · Post #19 » by **countryboi** » Mon Aug 18, 2008 6:52 pm

asking for amir has nothing to do with offense we lack depth at PF.....yea i know its not going to have happen...i would just rather fill a hole if we are going to trade wallace
