Yeah, they are trying to get better. I love all these trade rumors. Shows that Joey D is for real, like most of you thought he wouldn't be.
I don't really want to start something but...since when do a bunch of fruitless rumors show you that a GM is for real?

1. He told the press that everyone is tradeable (minus Stuckey)
2. He has been involved in many trade rumors.
3. He is following up to what he said.

If he wasn't in any trade rumors at the moment, it would be a different story.

LOL @ this.

I wouldn't trade Baron for Sheed AND Billups, let alone adding Harrington. Mullin isn't THAT dumb to do this.

I highly doubt that Golden State trades Harrington and Davis for Billups and Sheed.

ALso I looked at the title and I thought it was Earl Barron of the Heat. I was like HECK YEA! Earl Barron! But then I saw it was Baron...got my hopes up. :(

Samb has potential to be a great player in this league.

He is a beast on defense, and he has a nice shooting touch.
He just REALLY needs to bulk up.

Samb will NOT be great, but he will be a helpful player that ANY team could use.. WHEN he BULKS up.

Well not great as in All-Star or anything, but just a good solid overall player.

Dumars needs to get in the #2 lotto sweepstakes for Beasley.

I'd like to see him do it aswell, I'd be fine with something like Sheed Billups and Amir(or Maxiell :( ) along with our picks for this draft and some future picks for Blount a sign and trade of JWill and Haslem... But I don't know if thats even enough(but the Heat would be pretty good)

Honestly, this would be a even trade for the Pistons and the Warriors.... but not a good one.

But if I were a Pistons fan, I wouldnt like it a whole lot. Baron is a great player, and dengerous scorer. But Im not sure his style of play would be good for the Pistons style. He obvioulsy flourished in Don Nelsons Run and Gun offense, not too sure if it would be the same for you guys.

Same with Billups going to Golden State, he's a great PG. Very smart with the ball and making decisions, but he's more of a 1/2 court PG. And thats not the Warriors' game.
