Re: At NO Hornets Dec 5th, 8:00 PM

It looked like this might be a long night as the Pistons got off to an absolutely awful start...no ball movement, jacking up stupid jumpers, getting beat in transition off every miss. Hornets were up 15 late in the 1st quarter, until a Pistons run that lasted through the end of the 1st and into the 2nd cut the lead almost all the way down. JMax and Jarvis helped get them back in it off the bench, especially JMax with two monster follow slams, though the Hornets got the lead back up to 10. After some of the other starters came back in, CB and Dice helped lead a big rally the rest of the way to give the Pistons a 2 point lead at halftime. Then a dominant second half on the boards, with second chance points all over the place, led to a double digit lead, plus some good defense and terrible Hornets execution. CB couldn't hit the side of a barn from the floor, but he got to the line a bunch in the last quarter, and Lindsey did a nice job off the bench for a few minutes in the second half. Offensive rebounding was the key factor in the second half. Another one: Pistons committed only 6 turnovers in the whole game.

4 games, 4 out of 5 nights, 4 different cities...and 4 double digit wins. Not too shabby, I'd say.
