DETROIT -- The Detroit Pistons have reached an agreement in principle with the city of Detroit and Olympia Entertainment for the team to move from the suburbs to downtown, according to a person with knowledge of the negotiations.The person spoke on condition of anonymity Monday because there had been no formal announcement. Pistons owner Tom Gores is set to appear at a news conference Tuesday with Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan and Christopher Ilitch, president and CEO of Ilitch Holdings.Gores acknowledged last month that the team was close to a deal to leave The Palace of Auburn Hills and start playing downtown next season. The Pistons have been in talks about playing at the new arena that is being built for the Detroit Red Wings, who are owned by Mike and Marian Ilitch. The arena site is about 30 miles from Auburn Hills.Olympia Entertainment, a division of Ilitch Holdings, handles business operations for the Red Wings, who are in their final season at Joe Louis Arena before moving to Little Caesars Arena.The new arena is in the same part of downtown where the Tigers and Lions host their games, and not far from where Gores and Dan Gilbert have been hoping to put a new stadium for a Major League Soccer team.The Pistons have played in Auburn Hills since 1988 and played at the Pontiac Silverdome for a decade prior to that. The team was downtown when it called Cobo Arena home from 1961-78.The Palace was built with private funds by William Davidson, who owned the Pistons before his death in 2009. The team won championships in its first two seasons in Auburn Hills and again in 2004. Although the atmosphere slipped in recent years as the team went through a rough stretch on the court, Detroit returned to the playoffs last season for the first time since 2009, and the Pistons appear headed in the right direction in Stan Van Gundys third season as their coach and team president.Gores bought the Pistons from Karen Davidson in 2011. He said last month that if the team did leave the Palace, it was important to remember the success the franchise had in that area.I think we have to be really mindful of this community in Auburn Hills and their loyalty in showing up, he said. This has been a real community, and I want them to feel the same wherever were playing.---Follow Noah Trister at www.Twitter.com/noahtristerEric Bledsoe Bucks Jersey .

But the bigger news is that Jordy Nelson was not.Nelsons return remains in the air, while quarterback Aaron Rodgers will finally get the chance to work with Cook, the Packers lone free-agent signing on offense, for the first time in full pads. Rodgers will also get to work with Montgomery for the first time since he went on injured reserve last season.Theres a chance, though, that Rodgers and Nelson might not get any work together before the regular season. Nelson experienced a setback with his left knee this summer while putting the finishing touches on the rehab work with his right ACL, the injury that kept him out all of last season. He is almost sure?to miss Fridays preseason game against the Cleveland Browns at Lambeau Field, and Rodgers in recent years has played very little in the preseason, including just the first two games last year.Jordy, I know what hes all about, Rodgers said. I can throw to him to spots probably with my eyes closed sometimes, but it would be nice to get out there with Jared and Ty at some point. Practice would be the most important thing, and then if we get the chance in the game, that would be great, too.Nelson and center Corey Linsley (hamstring) are the only remaining players on the Packers PUP list.Cook, who signed a one-year, $2.75 million contract with the Packers in March, underwent foot surgery in June. Montgomery hasnt played since Week 6 of last season and recently detailed to ESPN.com just how severe his ankle injury was. Barrington hasnt played since Week 1 of last season, when he suffered a foot injury.While all three returned to practice Tuesday, its unlikely they will play against the Browns.Its not even a sure thing that Rodgers will play. He would not hhave played in last Sundays Hall of Fame game even if it had not been canceled because of poor field conditions.ddddddddddddReally, the focus is more on [backup quarterback]?Brett Hundley and our two young guys, Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. Thats the target we need to hit as far as giving those three men the opportunity and amount of work. Im more worried about them three than I am about Aaron Rodgers.The only thing certain for Rodgers is that he will practice this week. He hasnt done anything since last Wednesday, sitting out Thursdays practice because he wasnt going to play in the Hall of Fame Game on Sunday.Rodgers said he worked out on the field in Canton, Ohio on Sunday well before the game.I think I was probably the only guy who worked out on Sunday, because I was out there so early running around and doing some stuff with our strength staff, he said.Rodgers said it was during that workout that he realized the game probably wasnt going to be played.I noticed right away the end zones were firm, Rodgers said. It was like a plastic consistency, and I was surprised by that. When I went out the second time to see if Scott [Tolzien] maybe was going to be out there and Andrew [Luck], I could tell there was something going on. They made the decision in the interest of player safety. The substance they were trying to get the paint off with, I can promise you, was not health-conscious at all. So I think they ultimately made the right decision.The tough part is you have so many fans there who paid money to be at the game, so thats the disappointing part. And then obviously with Marquise and Joe getting a chance, and any of the healthy young players, but those guys in my room, it wouldve been fun to see those guys play. ' ' '
