Most recent reason why Dumars should be fired now

Good points Don .. I am keeping track too of these players .. The thing is ... Believe it or not, our team is rebuilding and we NEED young players to play regularly, be coached, and develop together into a great team .. The next thing is .. Dumars SHOULD NOT just give players away for virtually nothing .. Was it impossible to get at least SOME player of value .. a higher draft pick? Maybe that would be take too much work and thinking and patience to accomplish .. Or maybe there could be an emphasis ON DEVELOPING our players .. We spent too much time letting old guys play last year when we KNEW the team needed to move on .. once that GREAT TRADE NOT took place to start the season .. Or better yet .. Dont make a trade unless it helps the team . rather than hurt it by decreasing the amount of talent and team unity ..

No doubt Don, you have an AWFUL rep for shamelessly sucking up to any player from the University of Arizona so when stuff about budinger comes from you it's hard to find it credible. No I have not forgotten that about you, so just cut it out already. Daye is the better prospect all day over budinger, accept it.

Don the Grim one fall back, I have league pass Chase is not all that.

He is flat foot, he can not create his own shot and he is at best a role player.

I know you are the one and only Grim one but stop trying to hype up you Mr.Chase ball on Piston forum.

He is not all that at all!

Chase Budinger followed up his last game where he got 17 points, with 16 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block in 22 minutes. Chase's game is perfect for the NBA. He is a fantastic passer, great jumper, has all the post up moves, can penetrate while seeing the floor, and has a dead on outside jump shot. It was five against one while Chase played in college. Budinger made Jordon Hill the high first rounder because all the attention was on Chase. Budinger will become an All Star if he avoids injuries. This steal by Houston was the best I can think of since Golden State got Gilbert Arenas in the second round. Although the GM at Golden State was not smart enough to keep Arenas, at least they didn't give him away like Joe Dumars did with Budinger before he even put on a Piston uniform. So many of us have questioned Joe's ability to have any wisdom in the draft. Now it is obvious with Dumars killed Detroit's future by giving away, Affalo and Budinger, that the owner must now stop the bleeding and find another person to build a new Piston team. Imagine Affalo and Budinger on this current Piston team with Ben Gordon. Two guys who can defend and pass the basketball. Affalo and Budinger are complete players. But Joe didn't want to worry about giving Affalo a new contract and got Bynum real cheap. Joe won't look so good on paper when the wins and loses are counted at the end of this season. No more executive of the year titles for Joe. It is more and more fun to watch other teams this season but so sad to see our Pistons headed in the wrong direction.
