2013 NBA Off-Season/Free Agency

Good question.

That doesn't mean Boston should be lowballed in their offer. Pistons fans are ridiculous.
 
 
Knight+expirings for Rondo? What good does that do for us? Knight can't run the point either; you have 2 small combo guards and no starting point. And then Detroit gets a steal in Rondo.
 
Personally, if Detroit wants Rondo, they would be best suited to move Monroe, who is the player id want most in return. I dont want Drummond, and Monroe can play the 5 fairly well imo. But for Detroit, if they dont move Monroe, they will be stuck offensively.
 
 
Drummond-Monroe-Smith-Stuckey-Rondo, CB as a 6th man. Aside for Billups, who shouldnt get significant minutes due to his age, nobody is a good scorer really. Smith is, but at PF. At SF, with the post clogged up due to the two bigmen, he's going to be the bad Josh Smith, chucking up terrible shots and missing. Rondo isnt good enough of a shooter to rely on. They need to move Monroe for Rondo, and maybe in the deal we can flip you Jordan Crawford and/or Gerald Wallace; someone who can play the 3.
 
 
Just how they fit on the court wise, a lineup of Drummond-Smith-Wallace-Crawford-Rondo, with Billups as a 6th man, is a better lineup than Drummond-Monroe-Smith-Stuckey-Rondo, even if it is less talented.
 
 
Monroe+Knight+Stuckey+Villanueva for Rondo+Crawford+Wallace.

Lol, I don't think there is many Pistons fans that think the Knight deal is fair value. I certainly don't.
 
With that being said, Monroe for Rondo is probably good enough talent wise. Adding Knight and two sizable expiring for bloated contracts is moronic.
 
There is NO WAY I would trade more than Monroe (if that) for a diva PG, coming off a major injury, regardless of how good he is. And while Dumars is a dumbass, he obviously agrees with me otherwise Rondo would be a Piston right now. He might like Rondo, and I certainly like Rondo too, but not enough to give up Monroe for him.

I heard the Pistons may be interested in a S&T for Jennings. Not too sure how true it is, since a Detroit beat writer said it isn't, but I think I would like it. I've always liked Brandon.

books green tie was money.

Jennings-Melo-Bosh
 
You heard it here first.

jennings i could definitely see
Melo idk but i feel like he'll stay
 
and Bosh is a Mav imo. or maybe the rockets if they have money?

 

[elcheato]

I forgot about the Mavs. Bosh is going to have such a mediocre year next year, at the age of the 30 and the Mavs will still give him a full max.

 

[Mexi]

im still dreaming of dirk on the rockets

 

[elcheato]

The Rockets don't have the space (i think) and Dirk is never leaving the Mavs.

 

[Mexi]

after they are shit again this year, he's going to go try and win
 
he was so pissed they didnt make the playoffs this year. and he said he doesnt want to contend for the playoffs, he wants to contend for titles. 
he was a warrior this year. came back early, grew a huge beard and wasnt going to shave til they were over .500, when they were finally eliminated he was so pissed on the bench
 
i could see it
 
bulls or rockets

 

[elcheato]

I'll believe it when I see it. Just can't imagine him leaving.
