More evidence that Detroit was right to trade away Ben Gordon -- his new team is so desperate to get rid of him that they're even willing to take back Andrea Bargnani.

Gordon blows up at coach Mike Dunlap in a story that is eerily reminiscent of all the unpleasantness of the John Kuester era. Charlotte now more desperate than ever to unload surly shooting guard.

Swedish forward languishes on the bench but other teams might see value in energetic forward that is both moderately productive and moderately paid for the next couple years.

Chris Broussard of ESPN reports that the Spurs are trying to trade DeJuan Blair and engaged the Pistons in talks. Detroit apparently turned down whatever San Antonio offered.

Enjoy crazy rumors from now until the NBA trade deadline. The latest: The Pistons want to sign Smith and Henderson in the offseason, and Detroit would love to bring them in this season for an audition (ala Jose Calderon).

If the rumored trade between the Brooklyn Nets and Charlotte Bobcats goes down, does it make Detroit's decision to trade Gordon look better or worse?

Longtime NBA writer Chris Sheridan says a lot of NBA teams view Bynum as a source of instant offense off the bench.

The trade has come and gone and it will have many repercussions for all the teams and players involved. But who are the big winners and who are the big losers?

Detroit used only a fraction of their trade assets to address their greatest need. Could the Pistons remain active on the trade market before the NBA trade deadline?

Tayshaun Prince is gone and Jose Calderon is here. What does that mean for Detroit's player rotation? It raises questions at small forward, shooting guard and off the bench.

Wait, this might actually happen? ESPN's Marc Stein reports the Pistons may enter the mix in the Grizzlies-Raptors trade talk, acquiring Jose Calderon and dealing Tayshaun Prince.

Rodney Stuckey seems to be the odd man out in the Pistons' guard rotation. And while no trade was imminent when he got benched by a "coach's decision" that doesn't mean he can't or shouldn't be traded.

Lawrence Frank still isn't ready to explain why he inactivated Rodney Stuckey for Sunday's win in Orlando.

One game at a time, man. Rise and grind. It is what it is. Don't get too high, don't get too low. Will Bynum's cliche game is tight, son.

Cleveland gets Marreese Speights and a pick for essentially nothing as the Grizzlies are desperate to get under the luxury tax threshold. This is how it's done, Joe Dumars.
