Jeff Riger: A Fist Bump Never Meant So Much!

Walking into the Pistons practice facility this morning was truly bizarre. I think everyone was wondering what would be said about the so called "protest" on Friday and would Richard Hamilton speak about his chance to leave town, be bought out and have an opportunity to play for a contender? The morning got even weirder as when walking on the court Rip and John Kuester were practicing together and then ended their session with a fist pump. So was it an act? I believe so but you can watch for yourself on the video below.

The talk of the practice was that Kuester and Rip had met, maybe settled their differences and now everybody is said to be on the same page. Rip spent almost 10 minutes with the media addressing the buyout, his future with Detroit, the now infamous Yahoo article and the "protest" that the guard claims never existed. Watch the Rip and Kuester video below for the entire story. Also while watching, please tell me if you believe what Rip says and also make sure to comment on how uncomfortable Kuester looks. Is the D back in determination? I say hardly, but what do you think?
