I think you're right.
Do you think big ben will still sign with the pistons if he knows flip will be back next year, i think he might look at other teams more seriously now.
"Show me the money."
Possibly sign and trade if some team wants make a huge splash.
I think Ben knows this organization is (or was) defense first, and playing next to Tim would be the greatest thing ever. We'd have Tim, Ben, and Bruce...greatest defense team EVER. He would get another ring if he came here. I'm sure as he'd rather play for Pop than Flip...
But it won't happen.
i would love him in silver and black
The funny thing about championship teams is that they always manage to produce overrated players.
Another offensively inept player in the Spurs lineup? Are you sure that you want that?
Nazr for Ben straight up. The money works. The contract works. Everybody's happy. Let's get it done.
Nazr has been the missing piece for the pistons all season. Imagined if they had Nazr in game 6. WHAOOOO! Dumars was a teammate of Isiah, you know.
Piston's will not offer Ben the max but some team probably will. I wouldn't be surprised to see him gone. (Although I'm not easily surprised)
Big Ben will be wearing a bulls uni next season.
no salary cap money so who are we gonna give them? rasho?
dumars would shut the door in our face.
He could help the Spurs find a nice a S&T for Mohammed.
I'm not so sure that Ben's main concern is money. I'm sure he cares more about winning.
if he was willing to take a paycut he'd stay in Detroit.
Right now he's looking for a big payday and i don't think the pistons would jeopardise their future by obliging.
The should do a S & T for some younger talent and a deeper team.
Ben to anywhere other than detroit again i'll go wherever he go
Wow- that is a nice dream. Now, you got me all excited- for nothing!![]()
give there ass scola
Ben Wallace as our center would kick ass. And his FT % fits right in. But we still need to make up for our offensive liabilities at the 5 and 3. So I don't know, it'd help a lot on the defensive end but other than that what else is there.
stop envying other teams' best players
Ben at or near the max will kill that team's cap.
eh, stop trolling.
What cost the Spurs against Dallas in the playoffs wasn't offense, IMO. I'm not sure why anyone would say that it was.
It was a matter of being beaten badly on the glass, stemming from an inability to keep 2 bigs on the floor because of the lack of an athletic 2nd big (that, or Pop's unwillingness to stray from a belief that he needed an athletic 2nd big).
I'm not sure that the Spurs need to find a great deal more offense to get over the hump again. They need to find just a bit more defensive flexibility and a whole lot more rebounding. Ben Wallace would be a wonderful (perfect?) addition to cure those ailments.
Unfortunately for the Spurs, unless Ben decides he's willing to sign for less than market value to play for a contender, he's not coming here.
No, I like this site...besides, there are some very stubborn Spurs trolls on Mavtalk so, for tat.
eh, take your s to that then.
