Miggity Miggity Mack Dyess will be Back!

Antonio McDyess, the instrumental 6-foot-9, 6th man told the Pistons on Sunday that he would be re-signing with them next month.

"I'm definitely relieved that we'll have him back," Head Coach Michael Curry said.

McDyess was part of the four-player trade with Denver that landed the Pistons Allen Iverson, and sent Chauncey Billups, McDyess and Cheikh Samb to Denver. McDyess didn't want to play for Denver, so his agent Andy Miller worked out a buyout with the Nuggets to make McDyess a free agent.

McDyess could have signed immediately with any team except Detroit if he choose to, he had such potential suitors as Cleveland and Boston. Thankfully enough, Antonio has decided to return to the only team he has a desire to play for, the Detroit Pistons. League rules stipulate that McDyess has to wait at least 30 days after the trade is finalized before he can re-sign with Detroit. The earliest he can be in uniform for the Pistons is Dec. 7 at New York.

Nuggets Buy Out McDyess' Contract

As many expected, the Denver Nuggets bought out the contract of the recently aquired Antonio McDyess, who came along with Chauncey Billups in the recent trade of Allen Iversion to Detroit.

McDyess will most likely clear waivers and then re-sign with another team. Previous to the trade Antonio was adamant about staying in Detroit and if traded he would simply either retire or ask to be bought out and then re-sign with the Pistons.

However, there are now rumors floating around that McDyess will not choose to sign with the Pistons, but instead choose to go to one of the Pistons' rivals; the Boston Celtics or Cleveland Cavaliers.

Eastern Conference Finals: Game 4

Here are my thoughts on Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals:

1. Isn't it kind of dangerous to have an alien (Sam Cassell) running around on the court like that? He might have some sort of intergalactic disease that makes your head big and oddly shaped.

2. Antonio (Miggity Mack) McDyess is on fire.

3. Jason Maxiell is a beast, awesome swat of Garnett's breakaway dunk!

4. Why can't Kendrick Perkins grow a full beard?

5. I hope the Pistons come out with the same tenacity and physical play on Wednesday.
