I'd take the free-fall
if it meant there was once a title. Dumars deserves some benefit of the doubt. Ok, maybe not with lottery picks.

How would you feel about 6 titles in 8 years?
If you accept a six year free fall for one title, does that correlate to 36 years for 6?
Thomas, Miller, Salmons, James, Pargo, Gray, MLE, and (there is no LLE thanks to the Pargo signing) will not be here with a Max Free Agent...don't get too attached.

thats a really nice "could have been" lineup.
"Oooohhh, cat in the wall, eh? Now you're talkin' my language."
“Turned down a trade of Richard Hamilton, Tayshaun Prince and Rodney Stuckey for Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen. Note that aside from the talent element of this trade, both Celtics players were expiring contracts, alleviating the failure above of doubling-down $22M/yr. on two shooting guards. (note- Adrian Wojnarowski, linked above, was perhaps this summer’s earliest and most accurate source of player transactions. If someone in the Pistons organization passed on a trade, Dumars is ultimately responsible.)”
Wow why the hell wouldn’t Dumars take this trade and run? That was pretty damn foolish
I still can't believe he passed on National Champion Carmelo Anthony.
What are you doing? (Ozzie voice)
Beasley spent the first two quarters like he was wandering through a forest.-Neil Funk
The George Lucas
comparison was pretty cool. If Joe D really passed on that Ray Allen-Rondo trade, that was a big mistake. He could’ve righted a lot of wrongs with that move this summer.
Joakim on whether he ever tried tennis: "I played a little bit. If anybody on the Bulls wanted to play me, I would kick their ass."
Why in the world would you make your two big free agent acquisitions bench players?

Heh you get that money BG. Hes been injured though and also to point to never trading Rip I thought he should of been on the trading block all season. The Pistons were doing well at first with all their injuries.
Still thought they might as well have signed Avery too. I know their current coach has exp but his last job was offensive coach for the Cavs…
