Hey I like it why not if he cvan play like he did two years ago he well be a nice bench player.
At this point, that would probably be best. I could see Joe trading him before the trade deadline. For a better PG? PF? Draft pick? It doesn't really matter. Anything is better than getting nothing out of him when he leaves next year.

Do you ever know what you're talking about?
Chauncey Billups WAS a shoot-first PG. Over the past two seasons, he's been very much the consumate point guard that gets his teammates involved first.
Go back to the library and study a little more.
I don't like the Flip Murray signing. I don't like his game very much. I don't even think he's a very good shooter. I don't think he's a very good teammate. I just don't like it much at all.

I was thinking the same thing.
That pretty much sums it up for me as well
Flip is not a good jump shooter and that's what The Cavs asked him to do because they needed jump shooter. Detroit has good jump shooter that will let flip take the ball to the rim and pick up fouls that is his game. The guy is 27 far from old I trust Joe he has been right in the FA place more then anyone of us fans.
yet once again he OWES it all to mr.larry brown![]()
Once again?
No WTF red?
he meant once again me makes another stupid post
holy redlion shut the up.....u make us heat fans look bad.... man just give some props and ppl wont hate u soo damn much
Source: Murray, Pistons agree to 2-year, $3.6M deal
It appears that the Detroit Pistons have cornered the market on Flips in the NBA.
The team came to terms with free agent Ronald "Flip" Murray on Friday on a two-year, $3.6 million deal, a league source told ESPN.com.
The team had been looking for a combo guard who could penetrate to the basket and produce instant offense off the bench and Murray appears to be a perfect fit.
Murray made a name for himself two years ago in Seattle when he was inserted into the starting lineup on opening night after Ray Allen suffered an injury and scored 20 or more points in 10 of his first 11 games.
Even more perfect for the Pistons was the price at which they got him. The Pistons originally offered the majority of their mid-level exception to Murray, but Murray hesitated to take it, hoping to get a more lucrative deal elsewhere.
In the meantime, the Pistons found out that they were losing Ben Wallace and made Nazr Mohamed an offer. When Mohammed accepted, Murray was left without a big suitor.
In the end, the Pistons were able to fill both their needs -- adding a center to replace Wallace and adding some scoring punch to their backcourt.
While no one is pretending that the Pistons are going to be better without Wallace, they are adding some depth to what once was a paper thin rotation.
Expect Murray, Carlos Delfino and Antonio McDyess to give the Pistons a legit eight-man rotation next year.

Flip Murray is clutch. I like him.
Well, it does help when Hamilton shoots 50%.
Flip is a very nice player.
He played nice in Cleveland, the most surprising thing to me was his defense. He has always been a scorer, but he was playing the other teams best perimeter guy at times and holding his own. Good signing for the Pistons.
Murray is a god-awful defensive player. Always has been, always will be.
It's funny just how Joe Dumars's GM career has gone. Three lucky breaks and the man's a genius - one unlucky one and every bad decision he's made in the last four years comes right back to bite him in the ass.
Who's the most un-Pistonlike Piston: Flip, Flip, or Nazr?
Nazr. Simply because he's white. [cough] And Flippy.
Nazr is black.
hes white?!? when did this happen
JooOOOOOoooKe. Hence the cough.
Flip for the LLE is damn cheap.
He can give a good scoring punch form the bench.
Even if I don't like this player, it's a good signing for Detroit.
