    Honestly, I think Chauncey will sign back with Detroit. I don't think he wants to necessarily be the sole star on a team if that means that the team isn't going to make the playoffs. Chauncey's a winner, so that's why I think he'll re-sign.

    Yeah, Billups will most likely re-sign, so don't lose hope Piston fans.

    He probaly will want to see what teams offer him, and then whatever team gives him which he wants he will sign with them. Though right now he just wants to explore his options. I think he will likely go back with the Pistons though.But, if he doesn't I wonder which team he will go to.

    I'm sure many people will be racing for Chauncey Billups. Without seeing any of his options I'm sure Detroit is a priority. However there will be some attractive offers. I think that Orlando, Minnesota, Atlanta, and Cleveland need to look at Billups.Should be interesting, especially with him being un-restricted.

I'm not sure if he's opted out but he's a keeper for the Bucks IMO. Williams couldn't be stopped when the Bucks were soaring in early January (before the injuries). Not to mention he's only 25, true that Chauncey is well Chauncey but I think the Bucks should focus on other needs and keep Mo Williams.

    Theres a nice chance he will go back to Detriot, but teams like Memphis, Orlando and Milwaukee are going to make nice offers for him. But saying he WILL sign back with Detriot or he WILL sign with another team are both statements that shouldnt be said right now....anything is possible.

    Chauncey BillupsRay AllenKevin DurantChris WilcoxNick Collison/ Robert SwiftLuke Ridnour and Earl watson as bench pgs helps even more.|not to mention if they sign and trade rashard for some better depth, behind ray allen and Chris Wilcox. Seattle would be looking real nice next season.|But I doubt chaunce would do this. But this would be a very good decision of his.| if the rashard thing goes the right way.|

    He's more than likely remaining in Detroit. Some people don't understand that the only reason he opted out was to get more money, because he was currently making about $6.8 million a year, and he knows that the Pistons and other teams would give him more than that if he was on the free agent market. It doesn't have much to do with the fact that Detroit has lost in the ECF the past two years...
