All those camera shots of Joe sitting in the stands on his cell-phone at games - he's talking to Goldwire's agent.

Plaisted, a center taken at No. 46, was supposed to play in Italy but he's been sidelined with a back injury. He has done nothing yet except rehab and George David, Pistons director of player personnel, said there was no timetable for his return.

So it's looking like a lost season for Plaisted. The news is much better on Washington. The 6-5 small forward taken No. 59 out of Virginia Tech is one of the top players in Israel. On the night David watched him play (Dec. 11), Washington produced 20 points, 10 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks.
