Stuff that happened this week in the league that you might have missed.

- Ok, everyone knows, but the Detroit Pistons traded Chauncey Billups andAntonio McDyess to the Denver Nuggets for Allen Iverson. Also, there was a presidential election.

- Antonio McDyess was bought out by the Nuggets, agreeing to take $6 Million not to play for the Nuggets. McDyess can now negotiate with other teams, including his former team the Detroit Pistons. McDyess can join any team he wishes, but if he wants to return to Detroit, he'll have to wait 30 days from his release to return to the Pistons. The Cavaliers, Lakers, and Celtics are among the many teams interested in bringing in McDyess, but right now nobody seems certain of which way McDyess is leaning.

- The Nuggets won their first game with Chauncey Billups coming back to his hometown in Denver, defeating the Mavericks at home. Billups had 15 points.

- The new-look Pistons are still adjusting to the arrival of Allen Iverson, losing games to the New Jersey Nets and Boston Celtics.

- The Celtics did an absolute job defending the Pistons, holding Iverson and Rasheed Wallace to 10 points apiece, and Richard Hamilton to just 3 points. On the flip side though, the Pistons did manage to hold Kevin Garnett to just 8 points and Paul Pierce to just 7 points. Not exactly a battle of superstars in Boston on Sunday.

- LeBron James has taken over the scoring lead, averaging 28.1 points per game after two 41-point performances against the Bulls.

- Tony Parker is currently in second place at 27.8 ppg, but he'll be falling out of the list soon as he's out for four weeks with an ankle sprain suffered in the Spurs' loss to the Heat on Friday.

- The Utah Jazz suffered their first loss of the season Sunday against the New York Knicks, 107-99, dropping them to 5-1 on the season. The Jazz will be in Cleveland on Saturday.

- The Jazz loss leaves the Los Angeles Lakers and Atlanta Hawks as the only undefeated teams left in the league, both at 4-0. The Lakers and Hawks play late Sunday, meaning that the Cavaliers have played seven games in a span where those teams have played only four. That will all balance itself out in the end, but so far the Lakers and Hawks are getting a lot of rest in the first two weeks of the season.

- On the flip side of the standings, the Washington Wizards are the only team without a victory, going 0-5 during the first two weeks of the young season. The Wizards are giving up the most points in the league at 108.8 point per game, and are an absolute mess right now without Gilbert Arenas, to the point where Antawn Jamison refused to get into the huddle during a timeout in their most recent loss, to the Orlando Magic.

- Carmelo Anthony lost a bet playing NBA Live 09, and lost his trademark cornrows as a result.

Go Cavs.
