Detroit Basketball....................

Yeah they are pretty bad these days? Don't worry too much though. Joe Dumars probably didn't think things would go this bad, but it is a long term plan he had in the first place. Like everything and everyone these days they want change and right away and if that doesn't happen, dispite being a long term plan, everyone has a bitchfest. I'm willing to take a beating for a year or two if it does result in getting two big Free Agents, as everyone is hoping. Just don't be suprised if it doesn't happen.

Yes there will be a load of FA's but if you take a look back at history it will show you that maybe 20% or so of those big name FA's will sign with another team. A big reason has to do with the more money a player is able to make in resigning with his team. Compare that to getting less money and having to move to another location. I do trust that Joe D is a capable enough GM to get the job done and the Pistons will be back battling in the confernce finals once again. I know it is hard to wait but do we really want more years of being the Conference Final losers? Or do we go out and get guys like Bosh, Boozer, Manu, or Amare Stoudamire who can bring back the attitude of "Going to Work"?

We will sadly have to keep praying for this year and hope that this plan is what was needed to bring back the Pistons to elite status in the NBA.

Cool vid my friend got of the Pistons game the other night.
