Depsite still having Stuckey and Villaneuva on the roster, the Detroit Pistons starting five will look drastically different from last year. Joe Dumars used the Pistons cap space to sign free agent forwards Josh Smith and Luigi Datome.  He then acquired another guard Brandon Jennings in a trade with the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for Brandon Knight, Slav Krastov and Khris Middleton.  After the trade he turned his attention to bolstering the back court by resigning guard Will Bynum and bringing back Piston legend Chancey Billups.
