And if that still wasn't enough, the Lions still suck!

As much as I respect and love Stevie Y, it was about that time.

The Wings really do need a fresh start with some new faces...

It makes me wonder who will wear the C now- prob Nick-or Drapes....maybe Shanney....

As Far as the Pistons, I'm not that surprised. I don't think he will be the last to go either....

It will be interesting to see what the pistons do now....

I think the piston's playoff runs might be over...

As usual, I already can't wait for the next NBA season. I've become a fan of the Baby Bulls, and have always felt a tough minded, seasoned veteran is all they needed...you can't get much better than Ben Wallace in solving that problem.

Keep a look out for Memphis & New Orleans as well. I'm a big Rudy Gay fan and think Jerry West made a great decision. Also, the Hornets nearly made the playoffs last year, thanks in part to first year stunner Chris Paul, and with the additions of Stojakavic and B-Jax, they're a solid lock for the first round...and maybe more.

Wish the Kings would've picked up Claxton...but still have a faint glimmer hope for a massive KG trade.

Yep-the Bulls could very well be the next Pistons...

Iverson to Minnesota. Or so I can hope.

Wallace was in decline anyways and had no offensive game. Good luck with NaZRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR Mohammed.

Yeah, because the Bulls really need another all-D no-O player. They've had the best field goal percentage allowed the last two years, D isn't the problem, the lack of a LeBron or Dwyane or even a Carmelo is the problem. Sorry but kU Kirk isn't the answer.

KIRK HIND-L1CK?

That Ben Gordon can sure shoot the darn ball!

[deftonesfan867]

Mav's all the way.

[Satty]

Gordon is good but the Bulls need a GREAT scorer if they want to go anyplace with the suffocating D they have in place.

I wouldn't dislike Heinrich so much if he weren't a Jayhawk, and therefore a choker. Dont believe me, look back at the 2003 NCAA National Championship game.

well for one, he's white, and second from KU. Its suicide for an NBA team to rely on a white guy to build a championship team. And from Kansas no less. The fact that he chokes just goes with the territory.
