Haha, I don't get why no one likes him. He is a smart guy, and knows what it going on.

He sucks. Eli Zaret should be the one running the mailbag.
EVERYONE loves Eli.

I wouldn't mind having Eli running it. I wonder why they don't actually. I like Langlois though, so I have no problem with it.

Keith is a douche, never on TV during the Pistons' games. Eli is always on TV giving us the scoop and stuff, he defines the man.

There's been talk of a Chandler/???/??? for Maxiell/Brown trade. I don't know who the Hornets would add, I've heard Devon Brown but I'm trying to get some words. If I do, I'll post what I got.

I have already, if he can give me any news I'll post it here.

Here is what I do know though, Detroit is definetly interested in Chandler. Both teams want Chandler for Brown, but the Hornets want a player like Maxiell (not sure if he's the ONE, but his name has been thrown around ) in there also, which would make the Hornets have to include more, chances are. Also, there are rumors that Devin Brown is as good as gone, and Antonio Daniels WILL be traded for a big, so those are two guys that I'd watch. But would Detroit want those two guys?

I could see us wanting Daniels for sure, but I don't see why we would want Brown.

If something like this did happen Brown could possibly be a filler, it's pretty much 95% done that Brown and Daniels won't be with the Hornets after the trade deadline. Brown may be traded, but that doesn't mean he'd ever put on a Pistons jersey.

Though we don't have enough CAP for all 3 of them.

97.1 says the latest rumor is Rip for Boozer.

As well as Prince, Hamilton, 1st for Amare.
Rip for Boozer doesn't help them save money though, but they do want to move Boozer.
Amare wouldn't be bad but CV would play the 3, we'd be bigger yet we could also run and gun. That's a whole lot for Amare though.

And with the Tyson trade I heard Julian Wright or Hilton Armstrong would be the add ons..

From RealGM:
A number of sources said last week that the Hornets are again shopping center Tyson Chandler.

New Orleans general manager Jeff Bower could work on making a trade before he offers a contract to any free agent.

In addition, the Hornets could look to move one of their veteran guards, such as Morris Peterson, Antonio Daniels or Devin Brown.
I wouldn't mind Chandler, I like him.

I like Tyson too, and he could get some oop's from Stuckey. But I don't wanna deal Max and Kwame for him. We'd have no other bigs..

I say we deal them for him, and then go after either Varejoke, Frye, or Wilcox.

How can we get them? We lose our cap with that trade and we wouldn't have an MLE.

We would have to pray we get some big men for the minimum lol.

I'm kind of iffy on Chandler. Isn't a HUGE upgrade over Kwame.

From a random article:
Many people were also lingering for the trade of Kwame Brown and Jason Maxiell to the New Orleans Hornets for Tyson Chandler and Julian Wright.

I like Julian a lot, but since we'd be short on big men I'd rather get another UConn player in Hilton. And yea Kwame and Tyson are almost the same player except Tyson can finsih at the rim better and is a better defender.

If we get Julian I'd imagine we would have to move Prince for front-court depth right?

That would mean (if we don't trade anyone but Maxiell and Brown, and we do sign Washington) that we would have:
Prince
Wright
Daye
Summers
Jerebko
Sharpe
Washington

All capable of playing SF, pretty much all of them SF's as their natural position.
