The Answer For The Pistons?

Allen Iverson being traded to Detroit for Chauncey Billups, Antonio McDyess, and Cheikh Samb? Really?

I just do not see how trading one of the most solid--if getting quite old--point guards in the league on a defense-first team for a rapidly-aging Allen Iverson is that great an idea. In fact, it seems pretty insane to me (especially when you consider how valuable a role player McDyess has been for the Pistons).

Add this to the news that Phil Fulmer agreed to step down at the end of the season at Tennessee, and it is a pretty eventful sports morning, isn't it?

EDIT: OK, this trade actually makes sense, mainly because of the numbers. You get rid of Billups and his $11M salary over the next four (four!) years, and McDyess' $6.8M over the next 2 for an expiring Iverson contract. Perhpas the Pistons are loading up for a big free agent season next year? Or clearing out room for LeBron the year after that? Interesting stuff, and if I'm a Pistons fan, I'm happy. You get one season with one of the most exciting players ever--even if he is old and doesn't play defense--but more importantly, you're clearing room for the future. I'm in Joe Dumars, you crazy old fox you.

Plus, rumor has it that the Nuggets are going to buy out McD and make a free agent, upon which he will return to the Pistons. Seems like a good play to me.

P.S. I love basketball and am always looking for some peoples to watch with. Hit me up sometime (402.432.0296)
