Detroit freeing up cash so they can sign David Lee at 12M a year.

Ron Artest?
Gilbert Arenas?
Shawn Marion?
Ben Gordon?
Kobe Bryant?
Hedo Turkoglu?
Lamar Odom?
Andre Miller?
Jason Kidd?
Calos Boozer?
Mehmet Okur?
David Lee?
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

How the hell does McDyess always gravitate to Denver? This is his 3rd go-around with them.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

This is a great trade for both teams especially Det. Now all Pistons need is a trade for Zach Randolph and voila they have a celtics-like big three of AI, Zach and Sheed. Those are nasty apples.

get on the phone! make it happen!

edit:

zach for Rip Hamilton and amir Johnson....get er dun!!!!

Zach
Prince
Sheed
Stucky
Iverson

wow!!!!

Knicks borrow Rip Hamilton who actually fits D'antoni's system....after this?...ok now you can trade Crawford!!!

What the point for Pistons?

People still don't understand that the NBA is about good and bad contracts.

Iverson is a $20M expiring and Billups is still owed $50M over this year and 3 more after that.

Pistons have a young point in Stuckey to replace Chauncey and will use Iverson's cash to get younger after he expires.

the first expiring year deal of the year and it's result is billups + dice...

I wonder who else is available for say a certain #3...

chances are we probably have the guys that could feasibly be traded for Steph on the squad already.

it's being reported that denver will waive dice (and he will re-sign with detroit after 30 days) and will be getting cheik samb from detroit as payment.

there seriously needs to be some rules to disallow that type of under the table dealing in trades... it's just shady if u ask me.

Dumars setting up himself for 2010 very nicely. Wait I only thought the Knicks knew about 2010.

Wait a second Phar. You have said a few times that no one would want to come to a bare Knicks cupboard. What makes the Detroit situation better? Sheed, AI, Hamilton are all going to be gone by the time 2010 rolls around.

Setting up nicely for the Lebron sweepstakes?

dumars still trying to recover from drafting darko 2nd overall...

Honestly though.. imagine if they drafted Melo? Scary to think they still won a title and they could have had him as well

as David Aldridge said on NBA TV covering this trade, DET is now in a great position to target Chris Bosh in 2010... i don't see Lebron wanting to go to DET... it'll be NY where he'll want to come if anything otherwise he'll just stay in CLE.

but hey, what good is cap flexibility in planning for the future success of one's franchise? Joe Dumars is clearly clueless.

Interesting, though i've always had a different view on this. they needed prince to be playing major minutes to win the championship imo, ,which likely wouldn’t have happened if melo were there. i think prince's d, unselfishness, shot-blocking and ability to complement the others was essential. i don’t think melo gives them any of that and crates chemistry problems with his chucking, ball-hogging and no d. and remember they came within one quarter of repeating against an excellent san antonio team while going through the distractions of the larry brown defection hullababloo.

i always wanted to see them use the pick on wade. a 3-man backcourt of rip, chauncey and dwade is just incredible. plus I think that dwade could have also gotten minutes at sf next to rasheed and a younger dominant ben along with that big backcourt.
