Tayshaun Prince, like all of us is confused. The Detroit Pistons traded him just last year to the Memphis Grizzlies and the Grizzlies sent him to the Celtics and the Celtics now have awkwardly enough, traded him right back to the Detroit Pistons. Tayshaun has been through a whirlwind of emotions and being traded FROM the pistons hurt for him.
According to Vince Ellis of the Detroit Free Press:
He was asked to compare Thursday’s activity to when he was traded for the first time in January 2013 when Pistons president of basketball operations Joe Dumars shipped him to Memphis.
“This one, even though I didn’t think I was going to get traded, I knew there was a chance of it,” Prince said. “The thing about that one it was a shock because I had been here 11 years and I get a call after the trade was over.
“I felt disrespected by that, but that’s a story for back then.”
If I were Tayshaun Prince I would just be confused and kind of angry, but supposedly the Pistons want to keep Prince and see if he is a good fit. Tayshaun Prince can play defense and can teach these young guys how it is play in the playoffs (if they make it).
