I believe the Nova signing is a good one and that can be proven if we ever get a decent C to compliment his skills.
The BG signing could also be proven right if we were able to move Rip for this mystery big man.
And should Joe move Rip for that big man, and Nova and BG prove themselves worthy signings wouldn't that mean the Billups/Iverson swap was worth it?
At the end of the day we were going no higher with Billups here. Joe took a short-term hit for what hopefully is a long-term gain.
Rise like Lions after slumber,
In unvanquishable number -
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you -
Ye are many - they are few.
V could easily be the LA version of Lamar Odom here, but we need solid pieces in front of him.
CV could easily be a career bench player just like Maxiell...sure he's got a lot of talent, but he has to prove he can perform on a consistent level to be a starter in this league, and he never has done that til now...
also until RIP is moved the BG signing is a disaster, Gordon needs 30+ minutes badly to be effective
I haven't seen anything from Charlie V as far as defense or rebounding to believe that he is anything more than an overpriced reserve. Those are pretty important traits for a PF.
Villanueva, Pistons stuck with each other
Freep or something.
The scary thing about the entire Charlie Villanueva/John Kuester flap after Wednesday's game is the Pistons are absolutely married to Villanueva. No other team is going to take him, want him, so the Pistons better hope Villanueva suddenly learns how to play defense and play with the type of energy Kuester wants consistently. Villanueva has rarely done so this season for through his career. This increasingly looks like a Joe Dumars signing that will not work.
Players meeting my ASS!
