The Pistons finished December with mixed results. They started off hot, 5-0 on the month, then went 4-6. However, they now hold 2nd place in the division, 1.5 GB of Chicago.

The Pistons rejected an offer from the Magic. The proposed trade would have sent Tayshaun Prince and next year's 1st Round Pick to the Magic for Vince Carter and Dominique Jones. The only worry for me was giving up next year's 1st rounder. Carter is 33 as well.

The Pistons also rejected an offer from the Pacers. That would have sent Ben Gordon along with this year's 2nd Round Pick to the Pacers for Leandro Barbosa and bench-warming center Kyrylo Fesenko. No deal.

The Pistons also rejected the Lakers proposal of Ramon Sessions and Jordan Hill for Brandon Knight and Tayshaun Prince. Knight has too much promise in his future.

The Pistons did trade Damien Wilkins to the Bobcats for Jamario Moon. Moon is a defensive guru who is also athletic. The teams also swapped a lot of picks in the process. The Pistons are only left with the Bobcats 1st rounder in this year, and a 2nd rounder for next year.

Greg Monroe strained a quad. He won't be 100% for 2-4 weeks. He will still play, but Brandon Bass moves to the starting 5.
