    Thadeaus Young has great potential, I hate the word potential, but If he is there at 15 Pistons will take him.

      After checking out today's article in the Detroit News it doesn't seem likely the Pistons will take Thaddeus Young at all. Because he's as much of a project-type player as there is in this draft.

        The Billups opt out was expected but I jsut read on MLive that McDyess will be opting out as well

        Flip Murray will be back with the Pistons next season after exercising his player option. June 26, ESPN.com: Pistons guard Ronald "Flip" Murray has exercised his player option for next season to return to the team, his agent, Mark Termini,...


        I do not like this at all. I think Detroit will retain Billups but I think some other team will come after McDyess and expect him to be gone

          A. Sherrod Blakely has posted a report today stating Antonio McDyess' agent Andy Miller has confirmed that Dice has not filed for free agency.

          McDyess a free agent?

            My wishlist for tomorrow:

            15th pick:
            - Acie Law
            - Stuckey
            - Byars

            27th pick:
            - Morris Almond
            - Arron Afflalo
            - Sean Williams

            57th pick:
            - Herbert Hill

            All I know is we better make damn sure we get a point guard, guard/forward and big man tomorrow.

              There's an intriguing article on Rodney Stuckey posted at ESPN. Looks like the reported interest the Pistons have in him isn't just a rumor after all. Best of all is that Stuckey wouldn't mind coming here either.

                It's now official. According to A. Sherrod Blakely of MLive, Antonio McDyess is not going to exercise option to become a free agent this season. So he's on board for another year.

                McDyess picks up player option to remain a Piston

                      It's a done deal. Chauncey Billups has agreed to a 5-year, $60M deal with the Pistons.

                      Agreement

                      Now it's time to re-sign Amir Johnson.

                        The Chauncey Billups signing is now a done deal.

                        Billups re-signs

                        It's being reported that Amir Johnson will likely be re-signed today as well. It'll supposedly be a 3-year deal around the $10M range.

                          Ian Thomsen of SI has posted a nice article on the Pistons today. It's well worth reading.

                          Pep in their step

                          Edit: ESPN is reporting that Amir Johnson has agreed to a 3-year deal around the range of $12M.

                          Amir Johnson, Pistons agree on deal

                            I hope Amir gets into the rotation next year. Next year should be interesting. I just hope this team really undergoes the attitude change they have been talking about. The infusion of young hungry talent should help that happen.

                              An article from the Detroit Free Press is reporting that Cheickh Samb has been signed to a 2-year deal. I think it's a good move to sing Samb so to keep him stateside, as being around the Pistons strength and conditioning staff and coaches should accelerate his development. He should get a lot of playing time in the NBDL this upcoming season.

                              Samb stays a Piston

                              Also, Sammy Mejia may also be signed according to this article at Pistons.com:

                              Mejia will likely stay as well
