The NBA season is barely a week old, and there is already a blockbuster trade in the works.

The Pistons are expected to trade Chauncey Billups and Antonio McDyess to the Nuggets for superstar Allen Iverson, according to multiple reports Monday. The Detroit Free Press and the Detroit News reported on their Web sites that the deal was still being finalized.

Iverson, an eight-time All-Star, has averaged 27.7 points and 6.3 assists per game over his 13-year career. The 2001 MVP with the Sixers was beginning his third season in Denver alongside fellow superstar Carmelo Anthony.

Billups, a year younger than Iverson at 32, has averaged 14.8 points and 5.5 assists over his 12-year career, but has emerged in recent seasons as one of the most reliable point guards in the NBA. Billups has also developed a reputation as a clutch, late-game shooter.

McDyess, 34, would add another big body to a Denver front line that has suffered through injury after injury.

WOW at getting home to this   GREAT trade for Denver, the pairing of Billups and Melo will work 10x better than it ever did with AI/Melo. WTF at the Pistons; I guess there going to switch up the style of play but I don't see this workin out very well for them.

McDyess was supposed to be the young franchise Nuggets player back in the day and now he's coming back to them as a seasoned vet - and Billups is consistently good and sometimes superb.

A steal for the Nuggets.

I can't believe the Pistons would do this.

[Antonio]

Too dumb for the Pistons to do it.

[S P I C E]

amazing trade for the Nuggets and well a horrible trade for the Pistons.

Pacers>>Pistons  this year

Mcdyess is a nice addition but Billups is the big 1

Crazy trade...but Detroit knew they were going nowhere with the same ol' squad and are lookin about ready to develop Stuckey. Nuggets improved through the trade, Detroit just put more people in the seats. I wouldn't say Detroit declined, because Iverson is a great player and if he buys into the sytsem, Detroit will easily contend in the east. Denver, however, just got an amazing deal on their part...it was obvious that both Melo and AI were too ball dominant to win anything together, so adding Billups, a pass first player, will definitely boost them up a notch...PeACe

Obviously Billups is the big 1, but McDyess is one of the best veterans out there, he can defend, he has floor leadership, and he'll improved Denver dramatically.
That's the trade of the year for Denver, by far.
