Favorite Pistons.... Probably Maxiell. Tough one though. Sheed/Tay/ are right there. Amir/Stuckey have a good shot when they start playing. My favorite Non-Pistons... Dwight Howard, Durant, Kobe, KG I don't root for them, but I like watching them play.
Wow, Anderson Varejao that's a new one, lmao. I have to go with big shot, smooth, the mayor C-Billups.
I like him because he would add that missing spark coming off the bench. We do not have that right now, nor did we see it last season. Plus, he a big guy.............Energy is a good quality to have.....
I also think he would be a great addition, but not for 10mil/yr. Can't blame Clev for not signing him. Now he may miss the whole year and end up signing for what they were originally offering. He should find a new agent. Bad advise is bad advise. I like pure shooters like Ray Allen. Don't really root for him but love watching him play.
I read something yesterday about how Varajaoe got a new agent and they guy is making this ultra aggressive move with the holdout. The gist of it was that all the other agents and players are really hoping Cleveland gives in, b/c they think it would give them more leverage to do the same in the future. So, this is just a battle in the bigger war. More reason for Cleveland to hold firm.
I have been starting to really like Kobe Bryant in the past few years. My opinion of him was way down during the whole rape trial season, but since letting that go (since we never will really know what happened) I have started to respect the amazing talent, hard work, and the fact that he is (in my opinion) the best player in the world right now, even without help from the refs. It seems to me that he doesn't get the kind of calls that Le(no)brain and Dwyane Fade do, yet he consistently outperforms them. And he plays kick-butt defense to boot. I am looking forward to seeing him in action live and in person tomorrow at Salt Lake City against the Jazz.
Made me think of what my favorite team would be: PG-Kidd (Williams catching up rather quickly) SG-Kobe, monster on both ends of the floor, loved him on Team USA SF-Tay, love the high hoop IQ, defense, and all around game. Have you ever read his hoop resume on hoopshype.com-simply amazing. PF-KG - Do I really need to say why. C- Duncan, Technically a PF-technically.
Because you can be a Piston and still not an NBA player... Fav Piston - Ronald Dupree. No one talks about him, and he doesn't complain about not playing. Fav NBA Player - Rasheed Wallace. Then probably Jose Calderon. Then Maxiell.
