Doesn't matter. We wouldn't have won it all even if things did work out. The young guys get some playing time, we get a better draft pick than 29th or 30th for once, and we have a shot at a decent FA in 2010. Works for me.

AI just doesn't fit there, Denver did something similar. Both teams traded for him and expected to turn him into a completely different player. The Pistons knew what they were getting when they got AI (or should have known) and they still tried to change his game to fit the way they wanted to play. If a guy doesn't fit your style, don't trade for him. They should start Stucky at PG, AI at the 2, and bring RIP off the bench. Either that, or just trade RIP altogether. I like RIP, a lot actually, but him and AI just don't work.
Im pretty freakin awesome........

Save this thread for when AI is traded. Otherwise, the experiment lives on for a good 60+ more games.

I am way more concerned about Michael Curry right now.

The Nets lost to the 2nd worst team in basketball today, I'm glad they've already started to rebuild though...

You usually know what you're talking about, is this just sarcasm?
