<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">This is one of those off-the-wall rumors that you'd expect to see floating around in the blogosphere, but surprisingly the source is ESPN's Chris Sheridan. According to Sheridan, the Pistons may be making inquiries about a potentially available Amare Stoudemire. June 8, ESPN.com: rick, (ny 2 phx 2 chi): hey chris, i really enjoy your chats. is there any truth to the rumors of phx trading shawn marion to detroit for rasheed wallace and tyshaun prince. if there is truth to thayt how gets the better side of that trade? i would hate to see shawn marion leave phx!!! thanks!!! Chris Sheridan: If Detroit was going to make a trade like that, they'd want Amare Stoudemire back, not Marion. But Amare is one of the guys on their radar this summer, and they'll part with Sheed and another piece (I think it would be Hamilton rather than Tay) if they can get a young big in return. For more on the Pistons, check my blog later today.</div> Source: MLive.com
Tyshaun prince is much more important to this team because of his defense. I would give Rip up in a trade before tyshaun. Tyshaun could be an all star within the next couple seasons, if he is more of a focus on offense.
