The Pistons play New Jersey tonight looking to get that bad taste of losing out of their mouths. The Nets are a team I’m not too fond of, though in all honesty it’s hard to take them quite as seriously as we once did — we’ve already beat them twice last month (the 16th and 26th).
But here’s to hoping the Pistons don’t have the same laissez faire attitude as me.
Also, this is completely unrelated, but Chris Silva has a nice piece on Amir Johnson in today’s Free Press. I missed it earlier otherwise I would have put it up in it’s own post, but it’s a good read. Johnson comes across as a real good kid who’s actually eager to go down to the D-League to continue working on his game.

Do you guys wonder if Mikki Moore yells incessantly off the court? I can just see him taking the trash out and screaming after he places the bag in the garbage can…or after changing a light bulb…when his Pop-Tarts are done toasting.
I would go out on a limb here and say that Mikki Moore is uglier than Delonte West… but it would be a photo finish…
Perhaps one of the DBB boys can do a post over the all-star break with the ugliest player in the league tournament…
I can think of a few… Scalabrine, Michael Ruffin, Calvin Booth, Delonte West, Mikki Moore, etc…
i would have to say jason kidd is uglier than his teammate.
Sam I am takes the cake for ugliest!
Pistons all over the Nets at the moments, up by 21pts with 3:42 left in the 3rd! NICE….
Popeye Jones needs to be on the all-time ugly team
All-Time Ugliest: Gheorghe Mureşan
Active: Sam Cassell
lol, Fadel.Not only does mickki Moore yell at his pop tarts, he probably yells at is dog too when he snores.Very annoying. & i hate his jersey popping. literally.
rock ‘n rye… I can definitely see Mikki berating his Froot Loops every morning. And you know what? I bet they respond by laughing hysterically as well.
If they do not give Jason Maxiell 20-30 minutes a night I will personally declare Jihad against the Pistons organization. You know what fuck it, just wake me up when Maxiell and Amir are in the starting rotation full time. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…..
Moore has fought for years to get where he is. While his celebratory style may be disturbing and dated, his reasons for doing so are quite valid.
I have to add Popeye Jones to the all-time ugly team… he would be a dominant power forward for the uglies…
put his pic up next to a picture of Sloth from Goonies…
Moore’s fought? IIRC, he got lazy as soon as Joe gave him a 3-year deal.
