If nothing else, it would be nice for Ben’s final season to NOT be that crap that was 2010-11.

The more I read on Kemba, the more I am intrigued at the prospect of selecting him. His handle and speed are needed. Although Stuckey can get in the paint, Hollinger and our faithful bloggers on this site have indicated his subpar numbers at finishing.
I also like Kemba’s response to his shoot first mentality, I am paraphrasing but he indicated that it was necessary for him at UConn and that he saw himself more as a point guard.
We missed on picking Ty Lawson in 2009, JoeD needs to pull the trigger here.
#Biyombo: I will not deny his athleticism; however I hope Ben comes back this year to get us to next years draft for a big man. I like the options in the second round for big men then jumping at Biyombo at 8.

All the big men is this draft are ridiculously risky. Biyombo had a horrible workout. Kantar and Valanciunas are projected to be drafted ahead of the Pistons in many of the mock drafts.

But wouldn’t you go to see Kemba light it up? I don’t know just watching him gets me excited… he hypes the game up and makes it exciting

we won a championship with ben wallace, shaq won several championships. we dont need a freethrowshooter when we have bg, ad, cv, etc…
we need length, athleticism, and defense in the paint. as well as a passing pg
it would be great to have ben wallace mentor biyombo… Pistons basketball is defensive superstars mixed with effective star guards. its our ID, lets keep it going!

I watched a video of Biyombo at Eurocamp or whatever.. he reminded me of Dwight Howard in build and defense but his shooting was horrid.. maybe he just choked under the pressure or he really is that horrible at shooting

Biyombo would be a huge mistake. Can’t shoot. Can’t hit free throws so will not be able to be on the court in the 4th quarter.

Ben Wallace also gave his endorsement to Woodson as a hire for coach.
