| Re: Today's Piston Pieces 7/15/09 Ben Wallace back with the Pistons? Bad idea JAMIE SAMUELSEN • FREE PRESS "Would Ben Wallace be a good fit for the Pistons at this point? Absolutely! When I look at what the Pistons need, it’s an aging, injured, one-dimensional player who isn’t nearly as good as he was four years ago. He is the definition of an NBA contender's missing link. Without Ben, the Pistons are just a cut below the Cavs, Magic and Celtics in the East. But add Ben, and a return trip to the NBA Finals is a virtual lock. Please. We’re just kidding about this, right? Is this one of those crazy April Fool's Day bits that radio stations try to pull? Is there anyone out there that thinks this is a remotely good idea? Wallace was a shell of his former self last season, and that was before he broke his leg and toyed with retirement. Fortunately, the Pistons seem to have little interest in this option. So either Ben’s camp floated this or someone in the NBA's inner circles decided to throw it at the wall." Ben Wallace back with the Pistons? Bad idea | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press
