    seriously though, all your guys are getting old.(other than darko) and the magic players are under 24.

    detroit- darko, tayshaun, okur, delfino, glinidakis

    orlando-tmac, gooden, pachilia, gaines, hunter, kasun, bogans

    the magic's core is under 24. tmac, gooden, gaines, hunter, and kasun will play a big part in the magic future

    i just don't see tayshaun or glinidakis or delfino to be that big of a part in the pistons future. the only guy is darko that i see playing that big of a part in the future of detroit.

    sportsrock 37 is right we have alot better younger players than the pistons.

    tmac cancels out rip/chauncey/prince all by himself.

    are you kidding? younger isn't better, they don't get good untill there like 27-32 anyway, the pistons have a lot of players in that range and are already good, the pistons team isn't even old...the magic won't be as good as the pistons for years, so i have no idea what ur talking about.

    Dumbest statement I've read to date. Last year the Magic where an 8 seed and only 7 games seperated them from Detroit. I think you need to re-word your statement

    magic will get home court advantage next year. magic will be better than the pistons if not this year, then next year.

    They might get homecourt..but pistons if we get howard...then we will be 1st seed.What do you base this magic will be better than pistons on? if magic get a few real good players then yeah it is possible...but i see detroit as a top east team for quite a while

    If you sign howard then you likely will be a top 3 east team

    if pistons sign howard..1st seed..a lock

    if howard signs for wolves...top 4 lock..and the west gets even stronger

    if lakers sign howard and they increase their chance of winning the title

    thats my view on howard..and who he signs for

    tmac. are team last year was way better than 8th seed. just we only had the guys less than half a season and the guys were rookies and had to learn a new playbook. so now they will be more experienced, better, and will know what they are doing more. i base it on tmac and gooden. tmac will dominate this year and gooden will be about as good as he was in the playoff series against u guys. plus we will have a guy better than jacque vaughn starting at pg and a guy better than declerq(hopefully) starting at center. so our lineup is improving a lot.

    the west doesn't get any stronger, because howard was in the west before. only the top 4 seeds distance themselves from the rest of the west.

    i think we will be a top 4 east lock for now, but with howard, a top 3 lock.

    it will be fun to see who he signs with though.

    I've said it before and i will say it again..magic have a good future..to be a top 3 east team...but pistons were the 1st seeding this year..next season we will have the 2nd pick and if we get howard..we will make the finals...no east team can stop us..we make the ECF with a roster that was said to not have much offence..we add in darko and maybe howard and we have a much better scoring team.....while our young guys will improve..if pistons meet magic again in the playoffs next year i bet it will not be in the first round.

    Not really as howard if he went to wolves would make the playoff teams stronger i meant..magic are certainly not a lock for 4 seed with this current line-up..no way..if they get howard then yes i will agree with you.
