Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva are either on their way to the Palace or already there as I type.

    Yeah, but Gordon wil be improving in the next few years, while Rip wil almost certainly begin to deminish with age. I ‘d say Detroit should move him now if while he has value.

    Dude i know, If Ben Gordon were to come off the bench, With WILL FRICKIN BYNUM that would be so tight.

    Leon Powe is not going to be resigned by Boston. He brings a solid toughness off the bench and solid rebounding, something we sorely need to add. I think he could be an inexpensive addition with a contract with clauses similar to when McDyess first came to Detroit because of his recent knee surgery. Him and Milsap would be welcome additions in my eyes

    We need to get Charlie V and either Lamar Odom or Ariza. Odom would be better since he could play the 3,4, or 5.

    Pistons should look at getting powe since he won’t cost them a lot with his ACL injury last season.

    Not that I don’t think it might happen but You CANNOT sign until the 8th so their are holes in that source.

    Please…he’s not worth 10 million a year!

    David Lee lead the league in double doubles last year. Needless to say, I’d take David Lee in a heartbeat over Tay.

    I think the pistons should trade rip for wally sczerbiak, tayshaun for sasha vujacic, and kwame brown for dj mbenga. that would be a great move for the pistons

    THIS IS IT! This is the big plan Joe D has cooked up. Genius plan joe. Forget going for 1 more run with a championship team, forget the no sacred cows comment only to trade away the heart & soul of the team, forget the fact that YOU hired lame as MC & said he had the intangibles to be a great motivator, forget 7 seasons of 50+ wins. Forget all of the hoopla around WHY you made that stupid ass trade last year. To get at least 2 impact superstar players & get back into contention this year.

    I am not against adding players like Charlie V or Ben G. But What is the point? Still not 1 leader on the team & oh now no coach. 2 20 + scorers on the same team that won’t be able to play on the court at the same time. Clev, Orl, Bos & everyone else is looking to contend this year & create cap space for enext years superstar free agents. With the 2 players we are about to sign, we are still barely a 5th seed team if that! Orl, Bos & Clev top 3 with Mia, Phi & Atl in the middle. Hell the moves we’re making may not even get us past Charlotte, NY or Ind. This is going to be another bad year unless we are using 1 of these FA’s as trade bait. None of it makes since & Joe D is starting to look like a liar who has no idea what he is doing!

    actually i would rather he does start, if you look at his numbers or watched the games that he did start we was way more effective when he started than when he came off the bench

    I wouldn’t typically want a Celtic (or spur or cav) but he just got let go by this team abruptly and sounds pretty pissed by it. Why not bring off teh bench a quality big man with extra motivation to stick it to one of the top teams in the East
