Chris McCosky: Pistons Quiet on Pistons' front With Wednesday being the first day free agents can start signing with teams, things still remain quiet with the Pistons. Don't hold your breath waiting for Corey Maggette to sign here. Joe Dumars has made the proper inquiries, but it's highly unlikely Maggette will wind up in a Pistons uniform. Maggette wants more than the mid-level ...

... Bynum signed with the Boston Celtics prior to the 2005-2006 season, but was waived shortly before the season opener. He will be remembered by Celtics fans because of the incident in Chicago that landed Tony Allen in legal trouble as they were celebrating Bynum's signing with the Celtics. If Bynum plays well this summer, he has a good chance of entering training camp as the team's No. 3 point guard behind Chauncey Billups and Rodney Stuckey. But then again, Detroit News mentions that the Warriors have been trying to unload Al Harrington (two years left worth about $20 million) ...

... Chris McCosky of The Detroit News: "Lateral moves or worse have pretty much been all he has been offered for his four core players thus far. And Joe Dumars has made it clear he's not interested in making lateral moves. Unless something much bolder comes out of the blue, it is becoming more and more likely that the core group will return for one more run. As for free agents, James Jones, the swing man from Portland, seems like the most probable signee. What I didn't realize at first, though, was he opted to leave $3.1 million on the table to get out of ...

Uh oh, Maggette-O — Inside the Warriors
After being abandoned by Baron Davis, rejected by Gilbert Arenas and dissed by Elton Brand, the Warriors finally get somebody to sign.
Corey Maggette.
League sources informed me that Maggette agreed to a five-year deal (worth about $50 million) with the Warriors, which is almost double the midlevel deals reportedly offered by the Spurs, Celtics and Pistons.
What is Corey Maggette Worth? — ESPN.com - TrueHoop

It's not hard to make a highlight reel of him . (And this I know: Corey Maggette has better peripheral vision than your Average Joe. But nobody's perfect .) But is that stuff essential to winning a title? Thus far, you'd have to ...
