I fault the Pistons by not doing more to keep Ben, and then compounding their mistake by signing Nazr. Signing Nazr was a panic move because it was either him or Joel Pryzbylla.

Probably not in the game changing sense, and I'm not a real big fan of Mohammed, however Mohammed might be a better fit for Saunders. This is yet to be determined, and will only be played out as the season goes along. The Pistons with the addition of Saunders were turning into a team where Ben W no longer was a proper fit, Mohammed although a lesser player has a wider skill set (offensively) that fits into the Pistons plans better.
