Trust me, I don't think Knight is anything special, but I also don't think very highly of small gunner pgs and don't think Burke is some kind of savior either. I think the improvement over our current crop of wings by adding KCP is greater than what improvement Burke would provide to the team at the pg spot. I like the thought of a shooter with length who can potentially defend and has a little versatility to help the spacing for Drummond and Monroe. All of this may be negated by the fact we hired Moe Cheeks, so we'll see.

And ftr I hated the Daye pick too. I wanted Jrue. But it was because of Stuckey, not Bynum. Bynum has never been nothing more than a backup.

The Pistons have nearly $25 million in cap room, they could easily find wings, they are a dime a dozen in the NBA. Burke is hardly a "small gunner", he was the leader of one of the top offenses in the NCAA, top 5 in ast/to ratio and, came through time and again when Michigan needed him. He's superior to Brandon Knight in essentially every facet of the game. KCP is the gunner who took 7 threes a game on a 17 loss team. Him and Nick Young compare in many ways. That's not a compliment.

Brehs, next season is going to be HORRIBLE. So many teams are trying to shoot themselves in the foot to get a high draft pick next year.

Houston and Dallas are setting themselves up for failure if they don't get Dwight, Dallas moreso.

It's going to be horrible next season :snoop:

Fat Chick: Bill Simmons Thinks You Quit On The Celtics What Do You Say To That?

Doc: Well If I Wasnt Such A Classy Guy Id Call Him An Idiot Cuz He Has No Idea What Hes Talking About

**Mins Later**

Simmons: One Minute Hes Done, Next He Doesnt Know What Hes Doing, Next He Wants To Go, Then Wants To Stay. Maybe If Doc Stuck To One Story Id Believe Him

**Very Awkward Silence From ESPN Crew Wondering Who Should Speak First**

Exactly how many guards do the Pistons think they need? Serious question. Don't they have like 6 or 7 on the roster now?
