Pistons A Likely Trading Partner?

[LBF]

buddah are you having doubts about Amir Johnson?

because I don't want him if you're having doubts about him. I don't think he should be starting if you are having doubts.

I thought they had a hole at center, not PF... That is unless you're having doubts about Amir Johnson.

"The reason for moving one of the guards was to get something back to fill other holes, like at the three and the five, even if such a move would weaken them at the point."

The Raptors will not get a PF better than what they have now for Jose.#pause

I’m sure Bryan will still field calls about Calderon – and Jack – and while so many of you refuse to believe it, there are people in the game smarter than us who think Jose’s pretty good.

The Raptors will never trade for Prince period.

1. He is way too slow to run anymore. He has been playing walk up the court basketball for at least the last five years.

rip has been playing in that same system. so is rip too slow to run anymore too ?

also prince in only his 2nd year won a ring and was a starter who played 40+ mins a game in the playoffs...

Just curious

How many games have you seen Prince play over the last five years?

Unless you live in MI I doubt that it was anywhere near as many as I have seen.

Career Averages per 36 min - Kleiza on left and Prince on right

Points----- 15.8--------13.7
Rebounds----6.6--------5.1

i actually used to live in michigan and went to wayne state university from 2003... i have seen about 60+ regular season games and all of the playoffs for the pistons since 2003.

your comparison is unfair b/c detroit plays at a very slow pace, and they emphasize defense while denver played run and gun and no one cared about defense.

why dont you mention the D prince played against kobe in 2004 when the pistons won the title... or the d he played against LBJ, when the pistons beat the cavs in the conference finals in 2005.

prince was a starter who played over 40 mins per game in the playoffs for all 6 years where the pistons made it the conference finals... hez only 30... so now all of a sudden his game is gone ? come on

prince also played 35+ mins a game for all 82 games for 6 straight seasons...

buddah, your posts are interesting but you have recently developed a habit of pulling stats that only reflect your arguemnt...

honestly, do you really think a knowledgeable person about the nba, should even waste their time arguing how prince is 100 times better than kleiza ?

T-Mac Adds To Rumors

The source said that McGrady agreed without conditions to play behind starters Rip Hamilton and Tayshawn Prince next season, though it's likely that Detroit will move either Hamilton or Prince before the start of next season.

glad to see you took some time looking up stats of other people besides amir.

interesting, i am with you on not really wanting prince and seeing kleiza has been better that just makes it look worse for prince and it makes the kleiza signing look good. since there are a lot of prince lovers here.

Check out my thread on the Calderon comparison, if you haven't already, for more stats, these stats are about Calderon, Jack, Nash, CP3 and Rondo.

And the Pistons would accept that trade why?

Who said that they would accept it?

I never said that the trade makes sense from a Pistons perspective.

I said I would make the trade, of course from a Raptors perspective

Wouldn't you?

are you out of your mind ??
