League Update: November 2012

The Pistons are finally leading the Central! They went 10-4 in November!

It was, however, an active month:

The Pistons declined an enticing offer from the Mavericks. It would have sent Andrea Bargnani and Ben Gordon to the Mavs for Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Kidd. In my opinion, both are too old for me.

The Pistons also declined a potential offer that would've sent Michael Beasley and Brandon Knight to the Bobcats for Kemba Walker and DJ Augustin. The deal would not have solved any of the Pistons' issues.

However, the Pistons sent Brandon Bass to the Wizards for Mehmet Okur and Chris Singleton. The Pistons have too many power forwards, and this is also a 2 for 1 deal. We sort of "unloaded" Bass, and we get two cheap contracts in return.

Elsewhere in the NBA, there were more extensions:

Blake Griffin (LAC): 6 years, $106.02 M
Dwight Howard (ORL): 5 years, $99.3 M
Ray Allen (BOS): 1 year, $3.44 M
James Harden (OKC): 6 years, $88.73 M
Gerald Wallace (SAC): 5 years, $45.74 M
Tyreke Evans (SAC): 5 years, $70.41 M
Deron Williams (NJ): 5 years, $87.72 M
Jonny Flynn (POR): 5 years, $45.87 M
Mo Williams (LAC): 6 years, $36.83 M
Ty Lawson (DEN): 5 years, $82.24 M
Jrue Holliday (PHI): 5 years, $55.29 M
Darren Collison (IND): 5 years, $55.09 M
Stephen Curry (GS): 5 years, $84.08 M
