He should have swallowed his pride and saved his money for next years free agents.They would have been bad for this year but not much more than they are now.Now all the money is gone and top N.B.A player are available next year. Dumb. If Dumars really thought by adding Gordon and Villanueva they had a chance of going deep in the playoffs he should be fired.

Pistons have always been a team based on defense and he goes out and gets two of the worst defenders out there. Pistons were always known for their consistency and he goes out and gets 2 of the most inconsistent players out there. Between those 2 signings, Billups, Darko and a handfull of wasteful little moves (Kwame, letting Amir go, Wilcox).... I start to wonder was Dumars just real lucky at the start of the new Millenia, or is he just going crazy?
