I think this trade has partially to do with veteran leadership but I think it has more to do with "coming home" and finishing off your career with a team that was a big part of your career.

Might as well sign Rip, that could be fun.

But yeah, Chauncey is basically prepping for a coaching job, if he gives them anything on the court it's a bonus
Rip was inconsistent in chicago, its what's plagued his whole career. Even jordan knew this :mjpls:

Yep. I like the fact thqt he will retire a Piston. Wonder if he'll try to get #1 from Drummond.

On the real though Chauncey was balling at a decent level in the lockout season till he tore his Achilles. And with more time passing with the injury i think he can get back to a level where he is at least getting double digit points and 4 or 5 assists a game. Knowing the Pistons they may start him at PG at move Knight to the two spot.

i was thinking they might start billups at the 2. since he is big enuff to guard the 2 spot. they gotta trade stuckey though

awful awful awful move by billups, i thought he said on FT he wanted to compete for titles

his leadership and shot making could've helped the following teams

chicago
miami
OKC (he can play next to russy and would be another option down the stretch)
Clippers
Spurs
Memphis

He let the whole finals mvp go to his head and actually believed he was "mr big shot"

nikka takes and bricks 3's the last several years at the worst moments.

Mr big shot!

A nikka feel like he 14 wearing the Big Ben Afro wig all over again :to:

And :heh: at anybody mad at this. At least he can help mentor knight and give us some three point shooting from the guard spot. Ain't nothing wrong with it. It'll be funny to see Rasheed as his coach though
