too bad he's not from manilla.
this is a guy who can rebound some and block some shots, he is slow & white, didn't play much until now, didnt play more than 25 min a game, can't stay healthy, got worse in a contract year, i bet he can't guard any quick center or play good teamdefense...he's basiclly Darko with some better rebounding but much less talent and no jumpshot and bad FT shooting...awesome
Maybe Mason will just announce him as "Damage Control"
So basically all the things people were saying about Ben Wallace when we signed him...check.Quote:

I think if you put him around a cohesive team as opposed to the chaotic blazers, you'd see him improve a great deal.
No shit, we let Darko and now Ben go and we go after Pryzbilla. I guess that throws out the whole up tempo game we may try to play. I mean we resign Hunter, let Ben walk then we go after this fag? What the hell is going on?Quote:

Man oh Man, I sure do miss Darko......
I am sorry KSTAT all master of what is Pistons basketball but you cant compare Ben and Pryz. When we got Ben everyone knew this guy had a major upside Pryz is a slow paint eater that is a step below Dampier. We mind as well keep Kato and davis for this year if that is all we want.
LMAO @ revisionist history.Quote:

He's 26, just like Ben was when we signed him in 2000.
He's never played 25 MPG, just like Ben never did before we signed him.
Take a look at Joel's last year in Portland, and Ben's last year in Orlando, and then tell me how much better ben was at this point in his career.
He was young and raw with an upside Pryz has never had. Along with an NBA frame to match his raw skills, and you got fucking UPSIDE there. Pryz relies on his size that is all. Dumars like a lot of people at the time saw a quick, strong, and rising player that needed playing time and polish. is that Pryz at all? When you watch Pryz play his 24 minutes do you see that upside? And so you are saying the Pistons were after outlaw instead of Wallace at the time? Pure fucking bullshit. Pryz is a poor mans Luc Longley and I dont want him playing for the Pistons and no we wont be better with him.
