Allen Iverson Traded to Pistons for Chauncey Billups and Antonio McDyess

Allen Iverson will make $22 million this season, the final of his contract, which will create massive cap space for the Pistons next summer. Rasheed Wallace’s $13.7 million also comes off the books after this season. They're making one more run at a title before rebuilding. Enjoy, Pistons fans.
