I knew it was going to happen. Wallace is a huge piece of the "PERFECT TEAM" and when you're perfect, everyone wants a piece of you. No way Detriot would grab him, he knew he was going to get alot of money.
 
Hecks yeah! Big Ben, Kirk Hinrich, Ben Gordon, Loul Deng, that other white dude I seriously forgot his name I think its Nocioni, that's a championship caliber team right there!

It looks to me like it can really be a challenge next season just getting into the playoffs by what the teams have been trading for and building, Rockets are doing good, New Orleans picked up two good players, Chicago is building an awesome team, Dallas is still awesome, Heat are still awesome, Raptors and Milwuakee have all good squads. This could really be a great overall season coming up guys.....
 
I am very happy because it gives the Bulls a legitimate shut down center coupled with Tyrus Thomas at PF, rotate all the Baby Bulls at SF, SG, PG and with the potential trade to get JR Smith and PJ Brown should be a very very good team.
 
The Pistons now will be a different team. They obviously will not be as good on the defensive end, but I feel they will be a better offensive team. Assuming the Pistons do not sign/trade for a new starting center, the Pistons will move Sheed to center and start Dyse at PF. This gives them 5 starting players who can all easily score 20+ a game. Also look for Maxiell to get more minutes. I still think the Pistons will be one of the leading threats in the east. But, I hope most people don't think that because the Pistons have proved to play better when there the underdogs, lol.
 
This is a disappointing loss for the Pistons. He played one of the biggest roles on this team and now he leaves for more money. The Pistons will be different next season but do not count them out. Defensivly, it does not look great but it may improve overtime. Offensively it will be a tough call now as I find this move to be very surprising. The Pistons were gearing up to try to resign this player and Dumars made it his top priority this offseason to be sure that he stays in Detroit. I wonder what Dumars will do now.

Yup good move to fill that spot up quickly and Detroit will still have lots of cap room for future players....Hate to see big ben and his blocks and great defense go but at 32 his 1000 rebound seasons are nearing a end and with a 45% free throw ave at the strike along with only basically being able to dunk he is/was a liabilty in Detroit. Even with all that said Big Ben thanks for the great seasons here, you will be missed and not soon forgotten but we all must move on....
