Pistons have interest in Delfino

Posted: Wednesday July 09, 2008 07:33AM ET

With an eye toward bolstering the team's depth along the perimeter, the Pistons have been in contact with several free-agent swingmen around the league -- including a former player, Carlos Delfino. The NBA's free-agency signing period begins today, but the Pistons will not be in the market for big names, such as power forward Elton Brand. Instead, the team is looking for depth behind small forward Tayshaun Prince or shooting guard Rip Hamilton.

I would have much rather seen Pietrus, but hes going to Orlando. Please get Jones, or even Miles over this guy...

And, Joe D, about that no guy is safe thing... uhh... yeah...

Report Offensive Comment

what a total flip from what Jod D said originally....i still think this is a smoke screen to the real move coming soon....

Delfino wasn't that great to begin with.

Report Offensive Comment

Jod d = Joe D obviously.

Report Offensive Comment

Who is Carlos Delfino???

Report Offensive Comment

Not sure why they are worried about a 10 minute a night player,
when they HAVE to move Wallace and replace him.....

Report Offensive Comment

Good complementary player for some contending team...

Report Offensive Comment

Why? Start out fresh Detroit!

I agree with jgb, I would think Joe D would have more pressing concerns right now.

Report Offensive Comment

Why would Delfino want to go back to the Pistons and ride the bench again? He would be a good player off the bench for some time. Definitely not a starter in the NBA.

Report Offensive Comment

he could score off the bench maybe

how about big flop billups & rip floppelton goes 2 another team & Stuckey takes over the team!

Report Offensive Comment

lol i'd like to see that happen

I have to feel that this is not what Dumars has in mind. Something big is coming, unless no one else has as high an opinion of the Pistons front line players as Dumars does.

i agree turtleland

A very good complementary player who shoots the 3 ball, defends and brings energy onto the floor, no?

Report Offensive Comment

Yes, KBlakers, they do need to click 'refresh' to get rid of the staleness!

Report Offensive Comment
