Now the Milicic trade hurts. But offensively the Pistons will be better off. The defense should not suffer too much because you still have Billups, Prince, and R. Wallace. Those three players were either on a All-Defensive team or had votes for it. Mohammad is a better offensive player, he posted 30 points in a game last season, and his free throw shooting is near 80 percent. They should focus on defense a bit more this season because the offense should be there still as long as they pass the ball. In the playoffs, there were too many one on one plays called by Saunders. They played different basketball in the playoffs.

Pistons will be better without Big Ben. There is no problem for R. Wallace sharing the burden of Center. Also, Milicic is time to get out the bench and show how good he is.

The Pistons ranked last in the NBA in points in the paint. They should post up Rasheed Wallace more, he is a very skilled post player, but prefers to stand out there and miss a bunch of 3 pointers.
They should also try to get Darko Milicic back. He is a good shot-blocker, and that was about all Wallace was good for.

Well what they did was get Nazir Mohammed who is a decently good center from the Spurs. At least he won't be as big of a liability from the free throw line. The only thing Ben was good for was defense. I guess. He could block some shots but it's not like he could defend tall centers like Shaq, Yao, or even Zydrunas Ilgauskas. His blocks were when he went on help defense and came from the side. Everyone expects them to be worse, we'll see. I say they'll be as good or better.

The Pistons will be fine, they signed Nazir Muhammed the next day. If they use their bench like they did the year they won the championship, they'll be on top again.

Pistons are history. They had their day. It's time for a new division champ.

their starting five will now all be decent free throw shooters
they should just do what they have been doing
they fell apart in the playoffs when they tried to do too much one-on-one game instead of working as a team
they will have yet another great season.

Find a white player. Isn't it the blacks that are always bitching about no front office jobs. Well how about a few whites on the floor
