Lindsay Hunter was not sure if he wanted to come back after last season, but by the time he decided he would like to, the Pistons instead went with Will Bynum as their third point guard, The Detroit News is reporting.

"Yeah, we kind of went with Will," Coach Michael Curry said. "I liked Will, and we weren't sure whether Lindsey was going to come back or retire."

Hunter apparently had never heard that story. When asked why he isn't still a Piston today, he said, "That's for other people to answer for you. I can't answer that."

When asked if he wanted to re-sign with the Pistons, he said, "Definitely, that was my intention. But you know, things always happen, and you can ask the powers-that-be why. Then you can call me and tell me."

Despite wanting to remain with the Pistons, Hunter is happy to have an opportunity in Chicago.

"I don't have any hard feelings at all. I am happy," he said. "I've been blessed to play as long as I have and to be able to continue to play this game. I don't have no hard feelings for anybody."
