Excellent piece by Dave Dial on mLive today regarding possible Piston moves. Evidently, the team may have cooled a bit on Carlos Boozer and is now targeting Paul Millsap. Utah would like to keep Millsap, but I imagine Dumars will make it extremely difficult for them. No doubt Joe D would like some revenge for Utah offering way too much for Okur back in '04.
In a dream scenario, the Pistons could sign Millsap as a free agent, and then trade the #15 pick for Tyson Chandler. Chandler is a risk coming off surgery, but anybody at #15 is a risk. If Chandler recovers 100% from the surgery, the Pistons would have one of the best front courts in the East, and Stuckey would finally have some big men to help create space. Even during an injury-riddled season, Chandler averaged 9&9 last year, while shooting 56%. And he's 26.
The article linked above also mentions the possibility of Dumars targeting David Lee. While he would be an excellent addition, I just don't see New York letting their 2nd most popular player walk.
