princeof56k 0 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 The Pistons finally traded Darko. It's about time.Darko Milicic and Carlos Arroyo are going to the Magic and in return the Pistons get Kelvin Cato and a future first round pick (some conditions apply of course). The Pistons are making the move so that they can have money to sign their own free agents next year (since Cato's contract expires). Its a good move.What the Pistons will never admit is that they screwed up by taking Darko in the first place. Everyone, including the Pistons, knew Darko was a project. And you cant develop projects when you're trying to win titles. When you're trying to win titles, you play your star players big minutes. And you will also need the cap space to keep those same proven star players. There is no time and money to develop a project like that. I think Joe Dumars has done a great job, but he screwed that one up bad.BTW, in the other half of the trade the Magic got a point guard in Arroyo. Look for the Magic to dump Steve Francis for some aging washed up veteran. Its the only they can move Francis and his huge contract AND tank the rest of the season in order to get the highest lottery pick possible. Link to post Share on other sites
