Or is he the product of Joe Dumars and Chad Ford Kool-Aid inc.?

This is really sitting uneasy with me right now. Noone was talking about this guy like this until a few months back when he showed up for Detroit in Chads first mock.

Then someone "leaks" that Stucky has a promise from the Pistons.

All of a sudden not only is every draft guy putting him down for Detroit, but now supposedly other teams GM's and scouts are saying to themselves "Whoa, what kind of diamond has Joe Dumars found here?"

And all of a sudden Stuckey is possibly #10, #11, #12 on the draft board.
Whats more, Pistons fans that have really never seen him play at all or not much at best are hoping beyond hope Joe takes him.

When are we going to learn? We did this with Darko, we did this with White. I don't know if I am ever going to blindly endorse a Joe Dumars guy ever again, especially when Chad Ford is involved.

Stuckey= Joe Dumars and Chad Ford creation. Are we really going down this road again?


Does this sound familiar?

It should.

Michael Jordan did it with Rodney White.

I'm almost hoping this is a red herring designed to make another guy drop to us.
