Hopefully we can get him and ibaka new contracts. Would suck to see one of them leave.

Harden should come to Detroit for cheap.
Fear the Beard! Rather than Fear the Fro.
Michiganders appreciate beards more than any other state.

Yeah, gosh forbid the Pistons sign a good young player. That's absurd. 30 year old Prince for 4 years is much better!
