Maybe Flip will start to get the DNPs so Hermann can dress? Or maybe Hermann and Prezed will trade on/off? And if Flip gets the DNP now, who will get the next DNP whenever Stuckey gets healthy? Wow this team seems really deep now. I have to imagine Flip is gone next to make some room once Stuckey is close to coming back. @ Quick Darshan - I would probably agree about Amir/Wright comparisons. I think Amir is farther along though judging from nice moves he made tonight. @ PG4L - YES i saw the good news to. I am freakin excited now about Michigans offense. Especially when I hear Terrel Pryor is considering UoM as a top school. A 6-6 4.4 QB in the V. Young mode. Yes, very good game from the pistons.

No one challenges them physically, it's like teams play as if they're scared of them. I look for Sheed to body up and bump Garnett on Wednesday and guys like Max and Dice to not back down either. Boston is not nearly as good as their record would have one believe. They're the ONLY team in the NBA with a better defensive PPG (they're at 87.0, we're at 91.4). I'm sorry, no. I will NOT accept that Boston is better than us on defense, let alone by that much. They're playing teams who aren't challenging them or are lost on offense because Boston's offense is so successful and frustrating for them to defend. We have 2 days rest for this game, where we're 3-0 this year and winning by an average of more than 20 points. I CAN NOT wait.

They haven't lost a game at home yet, lets hope to change that. It would be nice to give them their first home loss. On Samb, I read he was sore and tired after his first game in the D league. So he comes in and puts some slightly better stats in only half the time of his first game, nice. Hope his teeth heal up alright. They said he could be out 2 weeks - 2 months.

I got stuck working today, and it sounds like it was a good game to watch. From what I read you have to have Windows Media Player 10 instead of 11?

The bench played well, glad to see it. I'll get to peep the suddenly hot Blazers vs. Hornets tomorrow night at the Rose Garden, should be fun. Great game for the Pistons. 6 blocks for Max, very nice.

There's really nothing to say since this was a smattering but I just want to point out Afflalo's game. 11-4-2. +21 when he was on the floor. That's what I'm talking about! Great win. How sweet it is.

It looked like they were trying to get jarvis going the point is that no one was a selfish ball hog - Murray will sit until he learns to play like a team - even in the 4th Nice game from everyone Pistons played as a team and moved the ball for most of the 4th quarter.
