Despite the fact that he's played for multiple teams throughout his NBA career including his hometown Denver Nuggets, Clippers guard Chauncey Billups will always see himself as a Detroit Piston and recently spoke to the media about the Pistons breaking up their championship team.  
“Honestly in my heart, I still feel like if they didn’t make that move and move me, we’d still be an elite team in the league,” Billups said. “Of course you have to make some changes, (adding) the young guys.....I still had some great, great years left,” Billups said. “I never wanted to leave, even though I was home (Denver) and it was good to be home, I always wanted to be a Piston. I wanted to retire a Piston....I’m still … Even though I’m over it, I still don’t get it....It wasn’t like I was 36 or 37 and I couldn’t rock anymore. I was still rocking. I was still in my prime.”
