    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Guard Carlos Delfino, the Pistons first-round pick in 2003, has agreed to terms on a deal with the NBA Champs. Agent David Bauman told ESPN Insider Chad Ford that Delfino signed a buyout agreement with his former club, Fortitudo Bologna of the Italian League, and he will ink a deal with the Pistons within the next 24 hours. "Playing in the NBA has been a dream of mine," Delfino said. "I look forward to joining the Pistons as they prepare to defend their NBA title. I've gained a lot of experience playing in Italy and I hope to make the Detroit fans, as well as my supporters in Argentina and Italy, proud of me."</div>

    i'm extremely intrigued by what Delfino will bring to the table. if he turns out to be another gem like Memo was, Joe D is the friggin man.

    That was a great move for the Pistons. Delfino should be a pretty good gaurd to bakup Chauncey.

    Delfino will most likely play SG/SF.

    Hunter will back-up Chauncey.

    A great perimeter defender and a great rebounder for a guard. Sounds like a perfect fit for the Pistons.

    The rich get richer...

    All Detroit needs is a solid back-up point and you can book them for a return to the finals.

    he's like a mini Ginobili, quick and pretty good shooter.

    He should fit into the Larry Brown system pretty well with the way he plays. Ive seen a few games that he played on NBATV snd he isnt bad.
