dude had a great shot. no real position. His best moments were as a 2 or stretch 4. But, he has lost his shot over the last 2 years or so. Coach Q broke his confidence I think. He may revive his career, but not in detroit. We will trade you him and CV for DHo

no deal. I still hold out a modicum of hope for daye, but if his shot isnt falling, hes basically useless out there. Did pretty well defensively against 2s due to his length, but he is both too slow and too weak. He has decent handles
its tough to play him at the 3 because he just isnt strong enough or mobile enough to guard more athletic 3's. Could become a good stretch 4 but his frame is just so small, he really needs to get stronger either way.

Thanks. It was same with him coming out of college... Thought he would have atleast improved somewhat
The only thing I can think with Austin Daye is there's something going on in his head. He can really shoot the lights out. He's had some amazing preseasons and summer leagues. It seems like when the real season comes around he just doesn't get it done. I don't really blame it on his weight. It's not like Kevin Durant uses that as an excuse (not comparing games obviously, just physical size). They've even trained together in the summer. You would think he could've learned something from KD. There's potential there, but I don't see it happening in Detroit for him. He's the guy that we've all feared would go to another team and finally find his place and light it up. I don't think anybody can pin point exactly why he hasn't done well with the Pistons. He does need a change of scenery. I'm not sure Detroit will trade him, unless they can unload another contract. I think they will just let him become a free agent.

Anothr contract like who?
Ebanks need a change of scenario too... Maybe it will work out

CV is the guy he'd really like to trade. Way too much money for the Lakers but hypothetically if money weren't an issue in trades I could see him fitting in there well. CV is a big guy with a great outside shot. With D'Antoni's offense and having Dwight in the middle I could see him being kind of like what Ryan Anderson was to Dwight last year. CV is another guy who just needs a change of scenery.
From the Pistons standpoint, I can't see them wanting Ebanks. They already have a ton of guys who can play SF. No need for another one. I really don't see any pieces on the Lakers roster that would benefit the Pistons. I also thought Ebanks was going to be a bust from the day he was drafted. I'm not big on his game. He looks like Ariza, but he doesn't play like him.
