If we could the Hamilton and Billups, we could solve problem in both PG and SG positions. But will we do that? Or will Detroit accept TMAC for the two? Sorry I posted it again cause it's supposed to be a poll.
Why would Detroit do that? billups, rip, yao, scola, battier would be a solid lineup both defensively and offensively.
Do you really think Pistons' GM is that BIG idiot??? I don't think so. Altough it would be a great deal for Houston, awful for Pistons of course
they have good big men. they're a superstar scorer away (the last 3 teams they lost to have great wingman scorers). i think dumars would be wiling to do a hamilton + wallace for tmac, but not bilups. you don't rid of your entire backcourt.
b/c the pistons still think he's a great player. with tmac there, he can do some facilitating too. plus, he has stuckey, who's more of a scorer so billups can play even less minutes. all i'm saying is you don't trade your whole backcourt for one player. dumars would def. deal hamilton + wallace for tmac though b/c wallace is just a dumb player who's wasting his talents and hamilton is too one-dimensional. billups, tmac, prince, maxiell, mcdyess is a ridiculous starting lineup so dumars might do it.
Detroit would be pretty good: PG good second year player in Stuckey SG Tmac SF Prince PF Sheed C Maxiell and We'd be pretty solid PG Billups SG Rip SF Battier PF Scola C Yao win win for both teams
I've always supported T-Mac in his time here, but this trade is so much better for the Rockets than the Yao one. We wouldn't think twice to pull the trigger on this and Detroit wouldn't think twice to laugh and hang up the phone.
billups/rip/dice/hunter for tmac/bj/landry/alston that's a fair trade for all the parties. detroit got partially reloaded with s superstar tmac can finally pass the first round in the weak east houston got the best starting 5 WHEN healthy: yao/dice/battier/rip/billups
In a damn heartbeat.. Shoot he wouldn't even need to pack up his bags because I would do it for him.. Hell I would drive him in the airport and help him find a house in Detroit.. But seriously the Pistons would never ever do this deal.
Stuckey looked real good. I think billups is getting a little older. I think we go for it the next two or three years. This deal makes sense for both teams.
