Haha, he is the only consistent scorer we have though. If we got rid of him, and didn't bring in a scorer I'd say <Censored> Dumars.

Rip for Kaman, get it the fuck done.
We can then sign Boozer and maybe say Trevor Ariza or maybe try to get Andre Miller or Bibby if they opt. That way Stuckey could really explode by playing the 2 guard spot. We could also sign Walter again or look at some other decent SF's I'd also like to see us move Amir for Sean Williams.

Bibby/Andre
Stuckey/Draft
Tay/Afflalo/FA
Boozer/Maxiell/Amir
Kaman/Kwame


It's all a dream though, but to get Kaman we could include our 4 2nd rounders.

Maybe, I certainly don't want Bibby though. I love Miller though.
Pistons NEED to draft a athletic small forward/shooting guard if we did pick up Miller. If we bring back Herrmann I'm quitting on this franchise lol.
I think Kaman is easier to get then you think. With Griffin going to LA they have too many big men. They have to dispose some.

IDK, I just hate the idea of Rip not playing in Detroit anymore.

If he does call it quits, I wouldn't be surprised to see him in a PJ Brown or Joe Smith role and get signed to a team for the playoffs

Rip could net us Kaman though, but LAC is soooo high on Eric so it's doubtful. And NOH doesn't want to trade Tyson for a player who will help but has 3 years longer on his contract.
Face it, we are screwed again this season.

Bring him back for 14mill o_O
He doesn't want to leave the money on the table and the Cavs might not give a buyout..

Haha.
But after thinking about it, I love the idea of signing Miller and Boozer. I think those 2 could work well together. Maybe draft Mullens or someone. Have Stuckey play off the bench but given starter minutes.

I don't know, we have quite a few things to do.

If we do that, we need a C still. Kwame would be decent starting but we would deff need depth.
Either way, Miller/Rip/Tay/Booz/Kwame plus our ify bench is still only a 6 or 7 seed.

You guys are fukking dreaming this isn't 2k9. Dumars fukking sucks.Nobody wants to play in detroit. Miller will either resign with us or go to miami. Your best bet is to resign sheed. Draft lawson or maynor.

Lawson won't do jack shit. Young I'm soooo sick of your hating. And if you can read you would see I said it's a dream and Dumars won't do jack.

Im not hating. Im being realistic. This squad was broken up way too late. Your team is washed up except for stuck. You guys have to build around him. Trade rip for kaman like you said. Sign boozer and throw a contract at ricky davis and see if he bites. And try to steal somebody like jermain taylor in 2nd round. I would keep tay.

PG-Stuck
Sg-ricky davis
Sf-Tay
Pf-booz
C-kaman

You got scorers in booz,ricky and stuck. Defensive players in tay and kaman.

Only reason I want a PG now is cause I think Stuckey will do better at the 2 like Wade proved his second season.

I know you like that lineup pugz don't lie. Just admit it. And joe d could make it happen.

Id keep him at the 1. He has a advantage there. No other point guards aside from shaun have his height advantage if he is eally 6'5. And another thing that helps wade is that wade is a better athlete than stuck. Wade athletic ability allows him to flourish. Not so say stuck isn't a great athlete.

You like it pugz. Ricky is at least good for 15 points a game. And it its not like rip is a amazing scorer. And I would look into drafting james johnson if I were you guys. He's 6'7 and 257. He's one of the few guys I think that could d up bron.

Ricky and stuck and tay would beast. And you know it pugz. Give me my credit. The lineup is realistic and is cheap.

It is more real, but still the hard part is getting Kaman who if you can't tell I'm in love with.

LAC has to move one of their big man. You guys can get kaman or camby. All joe d has to do is make a smart move.
