I'm sure there was an under the table agreement. Carmelo was quoted as saying that he heard not to expect McDyess....but of course Chapman is selling it off, he'll be here, he's a professional, we were teammates. Don't think you trust your 4th big man role to Kwame Brown without a backup plan. Amir Johnson is a nice piece, but he's not a starter, McDyess was gong to see a lot of minutes behind him, while Maxiell got some burn behind Wallace. Odds are McDyess will be in a Piston uniform by Christmas with rested legs. This trade also sets them up to add a couple of solid bigs after Wallace and AI walks. I'm sure Stuckey will become the starting PG next year.
