Detroit retooling 

Post#1 » by Captain_Obvious » Mon Nov 3, 2008 7:02 pm

Finally Detroit retools with a trade that sends Billups, McDyess, and Cheikh Samb to Denver for AI. I think this is exactly what our front office was waiting for to happen: A big time team trying to retool. And just in time Josh got his value back up with his great play.

Let me be the first to try for a Dallas - Detroit trade:

Tayshaun Prince, Richard Hamilton for Jerry Stackhouse, Josh Howard, and Brandon Bass

We get rid of the cancers that are Josh (value re-established), Stack (byebye), and a little extra in Brandon Bass for our perfect backcourt.

This has to happen!

i dont think detroit has much use for a guy like bass since they already have maxiell and johnson

id love tayshaun and hamilton but i seriously doubt they'd do that trade since the centerpiece is howard and bass (which as previously stated bass would be redundant for them)

i think the trade they made today will be better for them, the pistons havent looked motivated as a team since they lost to the spurs in the finals and all those conference finals appearances were nice they seemed to have lacked a fire, i think this will rejuvenate them. and if it fails they have a crap load of cap room coming soon

Dammit I would ahve traded Kidd for that package, I wouldn't want mcdyess but still, chauncey is a much better fit here than kidd

Hamilton just signed extension - he's going nowhere
go get Sheed and start him at C
