Fine, YOU be the GM!

Posted by pistonsnation

Do you think you know what Joey D. or any other General Managers should do with their rosters? Are you constantly using the NBA Trade Machine on ESPN to see what trades will work? Well, now you can really be the GM of an NBA team.

The good folks at PASPN.net have set up a Mock GM League exclusively for Pistons Nation. So, be the GM of the NBA team of your choice. There will be 30 General Manager spots available: one for each NBA franchise. Since this is a new league, we will start by taking over each team’s existing contracts. After that, it’s up to you to re-tool your team via trades, draft picks, and free agent signings to form the best team that you can. Since PASPN leagues are governed by the rules of the NBA’s collective bargaining agreement (CBA), the Mock GM game mixes fantasy basketball playing with the realities of the business of the NBA.

So, you ready to show off your skeelz?

Register and then join in the lobby area HERE.

The league starts tomorrow (7/14), you’ll HERE to pick your team.

If you’ve never done this before, don’t worry, neither have I.  But, I’ve been told it’s not that complicated and tons of fun.  I’ll give a prize to the winner at the end of the season.  Not sure what, but it’ll be cool.

Afflalo and Sharpe joining Chauncey in Denver

From mlive:

AUBURN HILLS – The Detroit Pistons have traded Arron Afflalo and Walter Sharpe to Denver for a future second round pick.

The move frees up an additional $1.8 million in salary cap space, which brings Detroit $3.5 million under the salary cap.

This is one of those rumors that actually panned out. There’ll be another move, you can be sure of that much. I just hope the second part of the rumor, the one saying we’re clearing cap space to go after Boston’s Glen ‘Big Baby’ Davis isn’t correct.

It’s a bummer we’re so deep at SG because I, and many others, loved ‘Flo’s work ethic and energy. He’s going to be a nice player. Watch.
