Booth Newspapers reported last week the Pistons are expected to offer Chauncey Billups a four-year contract starting at about $13 million per season. Joe Dumars, Pistons president of basketball operations, strongly stated to The Denver Post via e-mail last week that he has no plans of losing Billups.

"Chauncey is our No. 1 priority this offseason and we have every intention of re-signing him," Dumars said.
