The Pistons might be nice, but they have no real center.
Stuck/Bynum
Rip/Gordon
Prince/Daye/Summers
Villanueva/Max/Wilcox
Kwame?
They're just a team full of tweeners.

We'll be starting Wilcox at C... unfortunately.
He's solid, definitely an upgrade from Kwame... but not starting center.

Pistons need to make a move for Kaman or Camby.

rip/prince are both likely to be traded, and isnt bynum a sg? excuse my ignorance, since i know half of nt are will bynum fans.
btw, no way in hell kwame starts. if they do,
camby would be a better fit, since they want expiring contracts. he'll be a really good upgrade IF healthy, and thats an huge if.
i cant believe the cliips might be able to get rid of that overload at the frontcourt they had last year.
edit: thinking about that clippers roster
biddy, gordon, thornton, griffin, kaman. they'll def. be able to compete for the last playoff spot if healthy. bench is sort of weak though. imo, getsessions, trade bdiddy for a few role/bench players, and they'll be set.

A Kaman for Prince swap would make sense for both squads.
Kaman would give the Pistons a true center, that could give them a double-double. The only thing is that he can be injury prone and inconsistent.
Prince would give the Clippers an experienced veteran. It also shifts Al Thornton to the bench, where he would be a better fit.
Doesn't hurt that Kaman is from Michigan and Prince is from Compton

I don't see Detroit making that move though.

^i dont either. im sure they'll get WAY better offers then that for prince.
imo, they shouldn't trade prince at all, but it seems to me they want to start over, brand new.

Gordon & Griffin mixed with Davis & Camby is horrible talent?
- 9,086

I think he means it's a bad combination talent.
I actually like those four, as long as Dumbleavy lets the team run more. I think the Clippers really need to bring in a veteran like Tayshaun Prince or ShaneBattier to balance out the starting five though. Put Al Thornton on the bench so he can be the second unit's go to guy.

i said a horrible mix not horrible talent
starting 5 of
davis
Gordon
AL
Griffin
Camby
is no better then the one they had last year and is still a starting line up of nobody that plays 1 on 1 D and only people looking to score
and nas what happend to the old avy and who was that?

Multiple sources close to the situation confirmed on Friday that George Karl and the Denver Nuggets are closing in on a contract extension. One source indicated that the Nuggets will make sure to take care of Karl to avoid any potential problems that could come with "lame-duck status." One source said: "He will get an extension before next season, and we knew that after the postseason."

Sterling Wants Iverson On Clippers
Jul 19, 2009 8:54 AM EST
Clippers owner Donald Sterling wants Allen Iverson, but a number of the team's top executives don't share the feeling.
"It's out of our control," one Clipper executive told the New York Daily News. "This is owner-driven."
Sterling is using the team's slow-moving ticket sales as a reason to add Iverson, but a former league executive commented that A.I. doesn't appear tobe in coach Mike Dunleavy's plans.

^^ damn it my clippers are doing alright but at the same time f'kin up. Dont get me wrong AI would provide scoring and fill seats but give me ramonsessions and a defensive wing that would start so thorton could be the 6th man. If we do something in that nature we could be more competitive win more gamesand the seats will fill themselves. Sterlings trying to make money, dunleavy as the GM seems to want to get players in that would improve the team. They arepissing me off on day and getting me upbeat the next. I also think dunleavy has ran his course as head coach. just be the GM. stop trying to be Pat Riley.
