If you follow me on Twitter (@bensquag if you don’t), you’ll have probably noticed that I’ve been keeping up (well, trying my best anyway) with the Pistons salary cap situation by posting an updated cap sheet from Microsoft Excel every time a Pistons move is announced (I think the cap sheet counter is up to 27 now, not sure).
The Pistons came into this offseason with a fair amount of cap space, about $30 million back in October when teams were gearing up for a manic, truncated offseason with all the madness of a month of trade, draft and free agency openings packed into a hellish week.
