"And even now there is talk about how the Pistons would like to add one more Difference-maker--as long as the player fits Van Gundy's vision"

I think PF has to be considered our weakest position so maybe a PF?

That's always been the case. Ilyasova and Morris were temporary moves. Actually Morris is on a great contract and will probably stay here for the remainder of it. Maybe next FA we can get the difference maker

Of course we would.

We are a team that really doesn't have great depth and frankly doesn't have enough good players to be a threat to do much outside of competing for a lower end playoff spot.

Doesn't mean its likely to happen this season.

Ibaka is the only elite defender at the 4 who also can shoot 3s, he would be the perfect fit.

Well, duh. We've got some good young talent but no sure fire dominant scorer. We're basically platooning 2-4 to start and hoping someone steps up.

I know it CAN happen. I'm just wondering who we'll get. I agree Ibaka would be perfect. In our dreams though.

SVG quote from media day----I think we’re not feeling right now like there’s a big hole in our roster or something we have to do immediately, so we’re in a little better spot there. Now it’s just looking for chances to upgrade and add maybe one more guy – a significant guy – somewhere, whether it’s in the season or next summer. You feel like you’ve got a little more of a foundation going in. We know who we have. We’re always going to be looking until you have the team that’s capable of being a contender, but I don’t anticipate the wholesale changes that we’ve been in for the last year.

Thanks for providing some context to the OP. This all makes sense.
