Pistons reportedly not that interested in J.R. Smith

Marc Berman of the New York Post:

"The under-the-cap Pistons have been mentioned as a potential big suitor for J.R. Smith, but a league source said Detroit’s interest isn’t strong."

I’m convinced the Pistons’ interest in J.R. Smith wouldn’t pick up until Josh Smith and Andre Iguodala are committed elsewhere. The question is, what happens then? Do the Pistons throw money at J.R. Smith, or do they sign players to one-year contracts and maintain flexibility into next summer?
