I cleared cap and got a future pick...I know I probably could have gotten more but with the new FA rules coming up, I think that I can be in a better position to be succesful in FA, instead of trying to re-build through the draft which has obviously not worked for me.  That being said I have a theory that with a PG below 6' you can't win.  Hav and Mercer have never been on a succesful team and if you look at the top teams their PG's are 6' or taller.  It might just be my opinion but I'm done with the short PG's.

lol, I knew there had to be one that I couldn't remember...oh well, Petit, Okafor and Dalmbert made his job a little easier....but if some of these FAs in this class hit the market I might be able to get a few really good pieces.

That hurts, that truly hurts.

An allstar PG going for a 34yr old washed-up veteran and a low future draft pick (how low? The average age of the Pistons starters is 25.5 and they were playoff-bound WITHOUT Hav)

all-star doesn't mean anything if you can't win a game and Hav has never won, not saying he's the biggest problem I had but I needed a change and I'm hoping he was the one who needed to go.

I know that you needed change and I'm also well aware you even offered him briefly in the forum before the draft, but I didn't believe I really had enough to offer for him

Just now seeing him walk for literally nothing (Starbury retired more than 3 seasons ago, the pick will be around #15-20) is the cause of my pain ...

yea I could have gotten better, but the wealth of PG's really lowers what I could get for him.  Only a few teams really need a PG and me getting FA room is good IMO with the upcoming rules set to take place
