<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">It's important to Joe Dumars, the man in charge of keeping the Pistons a championship contender, that new fresh legs continue to bolster the roster while the core remains intact. That's why he's excited about the possibility that all three of Tuesday's draft choices will make the roster come opening night. Jason Maxiell, 22, a first-round pick at No. 26, is a tough guy whose size, at 6-feet-7, may have been a question to other teams, but his heart captured Dumars' attention throughout the season. "This guy here is a beast," Dumars said. "It doesn't matter how tall he is. When he gets out there, you'll see. He's cut out of that same mold" as Ben Wallace. Maxiell was introduced to the media on Wednesday at the Palace Atrium, and Dumars said he expects him to make the Pistons' roster for next season.</div> Source
I liked the Maxiell pick. He is the kind of player who is a prefect fit for the Pistons. Very strong, great energy guy who will play defense, block shots and give you whatever is asked. Not too sure about the other two. I had hoped Dumars would of drafted Jawad Williams with the last pick. As a long time fan of Jawad's game, I really hoped he would of got drafted by somebody.
