Some quick links from this week:
- Mike Ilitch — the “Little Caesar’s Pizza” gazillionaire and owner of the Detroit Tigers and Red Wings — is reportedly interested in buying the Pistons. He says he wants to prevent the team from moving… but there’s a pretty good chance he’s also hoping to use them as a means of getting public funding for a new downtown arena. And, as The Big Lead suggests… the city of Detroit has bigger fish to fry right now.
- The Pistons, having signed Tracy McGrady, could be shopping Tayshaun Prince.
- The WNBA has a new all-time leading scorer. Congratulations to Tina Thompson of the Los Angeles Sparks.
- Speaking of scoring, Villanova guard Corey Fisher dropped 105 points in a streetball game in New York.
- LeBron James finally got around to thanking Cleveland fans.
