    yea but there are just as many teams he could go to as good as the pistons or better. he will sign for the highest bidder as long as its at least a decent team. doesnt matter how much money he has. these gguys always want more

    I don't think KG will ask for TOO much..i'm sure he wants a title first..but we will see what happens.

    But imagine if he signed for spurs :shock:

    Duncan and KG inside..WOW!!

    nice pipe dream allnet. i doubt that he will go to pistons, if he really wants to go somewhere to get a title, he needs to choose orlando, play alongside tmac and gooden 8)

    Not a dream..it was in an article in the detroit news...it could very well happen....

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">he needs to choose orlando, play alongside tmac and gooden</div>

    That would be not a good fit,afterall T-mac and KG have the nightmare of not getting out the first round yet..

    j/k

    yeah, 2 out of the top 5 players in the league not being able to get out of the 1st round. tmac <u>will </u>get out of it next year, kg likely will, depending on who they are matched up with.

    apparently u guys dont know how players salaries work anymore. u just cant offer him the most money up to infinity anymore, its based on something like years in the league, and u can get like 12 million a year or something and then increased amounts every year after that, like 15% more per year, and if you stay with your own team u can get the most money. this new system is in place because of things like garnetts last contract. now that type of contract cant happen.

    Kind of like the Mavericks. :|

    That team would win the east easily. And maybe even possibly a championship.

    thats only if all the players they have now were able to keep up their production with less touches.

    2 of my favorite players. on the same team. it wouldnt matter who the other three guys are. KG could be point guard. that'd be awesome. :bigthumbup:

    OK buddy....mavs have enough balls to go around being the fast break team that they are...w/o Dirk maybe they won't have enough but with Dirk...he can get it and go forcing a 3on1, 3on2 break....ironic...i think you hate the Mavs cuz they beat the Pistons but who cares....next season the Mavs will have Zo and shut you up quick....
