Pistons ink Deron Washington

Posted on August 10th, 2009 by Natalie Sitto

Looks like I will be tooning Deron Washington.

“Washington, drafted by Detroit in the second round of the 2008 NBA draft, will have a two-year deal similar to the one signed by Will Bynum last summer.

The first year is partially guaranteed, although the Pistons anticipate he’ll be with the club long enough to where it becomes fully guaranteed. The second year is a team option.” Via MLive

    I work in the locker room. We should out of his jersey the night he hit 40 against chicago and weren’t able to keep it in stock afterwards.

    We ordered enough for this upcoming season but I would definitely try and get as soon as you can.

    I like this kid, he runs the court like Lebron and isn’t afraid to jump in traffic. I’m not saying he is Lebron but his energy and being fearless is a huge plus, watch for him. That last dunk on the video was sick.

    Good move pistons.Deron Washington=Maybe our Birdman..mmmm

    Now we may have one the most athletic teams in the NBA because everybody on the roster can play multiple Postions.

    Now its time to figure out the min for everybody.Go Pistons

    I like the signing. I am still very worried about this small ball talk though. Prince at the 4 scares the @#$!% out of me. He’s like a buck 90…OH, well. I’m still more excited about the Pistons this year than last. Funny how a new roster will do that. Not to mention I get to sport my Big Ben Official game jersey (in red) with pride again!

    Wow, the kid looks like Melo with better blocking skills. Why wasn’t he in the roster last season? (sorry I didn’t follow this kid)

    im happy to see him on our roster… realistically probably won’t get major playing minutes given our backcourt depth unless he’s the most ready out of our rookies to backup tayshaun… but when he does get playing time, something tells me he’ll be a fan favourite

    Come on, Nat- update the team toons! We know who’s a Piston and who isn’t now. Are you hanging on to the old team? Maybe you can keep the “banned” Sheed toon at the top, but remove all the other banned ones, like AI and Curry (please!!) and add all the new guy toons. Would you make Coach Kuester come in from the side like you did Curry? :) Thanks for all you do on this site, Natalie.

    Ted,
    As I have stated many times already, I will update the side when the FULL roster is set and all the toons are done.

    As for how things look….you will just have to wait and see.

    I like the signing a lot,but he scares the hell out of every one when he shoots free throws. Maybe Big Ben and Deron should room together on the road to give each other tips on how to make free throws and how to have a 90% free throw pct.
