Pistons' Dumars won't change just for change's sake Quote:
While his fan base rants and raves, while some of his competitors pull off minor coups and others dish out oversized contracts to underwhelming talent, Joe Dumars waits.
He has poked around. He has made some offers. He has explored some possible deals. But mostly he has stepped back from the fray. He knows when to hold them.
Dumars, the Pistons' president, isn't trying to see how many introductory news conferences he can hold in July and August. He isn't trying to make headlines or appease knee-jerking fans by overpaying for a tier-two free agent. His mission is to improve the team, not change some of the names on the uniforms.
