    Joe Dumars-"Trade rumours are false"....

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Contrary to what you might have read in Mitch (No News, All The Time) Lawrence's column, the Pistons have no intention whatsoever of trading Richard Hamilton; Larry Brown adores his starting backcourt of Rip and Chauncey Billups. The Cleveland Plain Dealer published its own counterfeit story in Wednesday's editions, claiming Detroit was prepared to acquire Ricky Davis for Tayshaun Price, Mehmet Okur and Chucky Atkins.

    "When I walked into the office today I was told about the article," Pistons VP Joe Dumars said. "If I'm giving up my two prize rookies, then we must be getting LeBron James, not Davis. There's no basis of truth to either of those tall tales. They weren't even a topic of conversation."</div>


    Thank god for that 8) :thumbsup:

    interesting point by joe..

    i woulda done that trade. i think ricky davis would straighten up under larry brown, but okur and prince could be very valuable.

    You'd have to be insane to give up that much for Ricky Davis. The player who shot on his own basket to get a triple-double? Please, If I'm running a team I wouldn't trade a decent ballboy for Davis.
