Oops, the little groundhog who said THIS back in November...
...didn't quite predict the winter correctly...
But there was a silly girl who got one right for a change.
It's just such a shame I was sooooo right about the Rangers too.

I don't think they will miss Billups as much as people think because you have players AND leaders on that team. The same was said when Ben Wallace left....he was 'the cornerstone of the defense'.....yeah, right. Made the Bulls instant contenders didn't it? Look, the foundation is still in place of the type of team the Pistons are....hard nosed defense....and neither Allen Iverson coming or Chaunsey Billups leaving will change that.
You OBVIOUSLY continue to miss the concept of this trade. They wanted to make a move and the ONLY GUY that had legit value was Billups...that's it, end of story. They took a gamble that would hopefully spark a move...all it has done was make the team older real fast. EVEN if Billups was still here, the team would have STILL been old and there is no way they were gonna stop the Cavs from having their amazing start. Do YOU honestly think that IF Billups was there, they would have been within 5 or 6 games of the Cavs??!! LMAO! :haha:haha
My statement above, if you read it c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y states that the foundation of a typical "hard nosed" defensive team was still there, whether Iverson OR Billups was there or not. NOWHERE in that statement does it say anything about predicting how they would do.
As far as the comment of "this silly girl"...you made it, not me....
