Pistons don’t offer Josh Smith contract, but meeting goes well
By Dan Feldman
"DET, Josh Smith didn’t get specific on $ at meeting Monday, per source. It was a "feeling out" process to see if both are comfortable w/fit."
Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports:
"After Josh Smith’s meeting w/ Detroit GM Joe Dumars, source close to Smith tells Y!: "Good, productive talks. Intriguing to say the least.""
Josh Smith is like every other free agent (save Chris Paul and Dwight Howard, who would be quality signings even with the max contracts they’ll surely get). Smith could present good or poor value depending on his contract. Until we know how much the Pistons offer Smith, it’s impossible to evaluate completely whether they’d be getting good value by signing him.
