Does this mean that the Pistons have to release anyone? If so, who do you think they will release?

I posted in another thread that there is talk that they might be trading a big man for Jaric.

They had an open roster spot, so they don't have to release. As previously said, they are looking to trade a big man, preferably for a point guard or Bonzi.

I see. I think Webber would have done better in LA, but that's just me.

Good luck to him.
