With my new status as Pistons General Manager For A Day, let's get right down to business. Tomorrow is the draft, which is very important to our team. We have some young talent and have a few needs that we would like to address.
1. Explore trade Rodney Stuckey for Chris Paul
2. Explore trade with Minnesota for 16 & 23 picks in exchange for the #7 pick
The trade of Rodney Stuckey for Chris Paul would immediately help our team run the offense that Coach Kuester has designed. Chris would be the catalyst for getting shots for Rip Hamilton and allowing the offense to run more smoothly. He is an all star and will only help the team excel.
The trade for the 16 and 23 picks is simply because I feel all players that can help immediately will be gone before our pick. Also I would not want to give up a player to move up in the draft unless it were for the #2 pick.
Moving down in the draft will allow our team more flexibility, with the option to keep or trade a pick. The Dallas Mavericks are said to be looking to get into the first round and could provide a trade partner for one of the picks for their 2010 second round pick and possibly a future pick.
If the proposed trades are completed Detroit would have two first round picks and two second round picks and an all star point guard. All is a day's work!
