Getting tasered speaks more about the poor judgement of the Miami Beach police than it says anything about Dale Davis. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2683128 I'm not denying or confirming that any Piston has a drink now and then. Last I checked it was legal to have a drink. What Mitch Lawrence implied is that 'Sheed drank so much it effected his job. To me that's irresponsible speculation. Either Lawrence should back up his claim with some reporting or call himself a gossip columnist. Newsflash: Dale Davis was acquitted on all counts in Miami Beach.

I signed up for league pass recently, and the game is not listed on "today's games" for viewing. Also, it doesn't appear to be televised in Detroit either, so I have a feeling they're just not taping it. If you or anyone else sees that this one will be streamed online anywhere, please post here! Otherwise, I'll be right alongside the rest of you tonight, glued to the box score. Garrett– I don’t think its available for League Pass viewers on NBA.com.

This is the stuff of rumors, legend, and lore. This mystical giant of an athlete where noone knows his true stature. Even the equipment they try to measure him with breaks under the stress of his elongated girth. If I were him I'd never let anyone measure me again.

I been playing NBA 2k8 and trying different line ups. If Hayes can shoot like he does on the game in real life its going to be great. The only problem is we are small, so I am all for Amir getter taller and bigger. Size does matter. Guys I am so ready for this season. I been playing NBA 2k8 and trying different line ups.
