I wonder how long it will take Zach to make me regret bringing him to Memphis

 9)   Joe Dumars – Pistons fans aren’t going to like this, but Dumars has made a lot of head scratching decisions recently (Chauncey Billups trade, Rip Hamilton extension, Ben Gordon contract and bringing Chris Wilcox in to presumably start at center to name four).  Is Joe living on borrowed time in Detroit?     

8)   Danny Ferry -  Danny deserves credit for trying to make the Cavs better. However, the pieces that he has added likely won’t be enough to get LeBron James a ring.  The deal Anderson Varejao inked this summer was likely $10-12 million more than any other team in the league would have paid. 

7)   Jeff Bower - I’m somewhat reluctant to include Bower because he has made a number of solid acquisitions over the past couple of years.  However, his failure to secure a suitable backcourt mate for Chris Paul is simply inexcusable.    

6)   Geoff Petrie – Last off-season it was Beno Udrih.  This off-season it’s Sean May.  Needless to say, Sacramento fans won’t have to worry about buying playoff tickets for a few more years.    

5)   Ed Stefanski -Throwing $80+ million at Elton Brand will plague the 76ers for years and letting Andre Miller leave without any compensation was questionable to say the least.  Maybe Stefanski thinks that recent acquisition Primoz Brezec will lead the Sixers to the promised land.  As far as I’m concerned, Brezec is just Dwayne Schintzius minus the mullet.

This post has generated quite a bit of interest (mentioned on Yahoo! Sports) during the past few days.  Chris Wallace is one of the top four...click here to find out the other three.
