Re: Milwaukee Dec 31 3:30PM

Good game, starters got pulled early. Stuckey is getting better, but we'll have to see how he does against better defensive teams. Afflalo can handle the ball, and that'll help Stuckey along the way. On thing I didn't like was Dyess and Sheed playing over 30 minutes, especially Dyess. No need for that. He could really be wearing out in the playoffs. Not sure why he was still on the floor with a 20+ point lead. Fabio looked good, Brezec looked strange. Seems that he's trying to do too much to impress. I know he has some skills, but they've been negated by his overbearing approach. That could be seen when he dove for the ball with 30 seconds to go in the game and 40+ point lead which caused a very incredulous look on Sheed's face. Sheed didn't do much, but he didn't have too. He was solid defensively and he set his teammates up for easy scores. He also added a couple of hoops in the 3rd. J-Max didn't play as much, but he was productive, as was Hayes. Hayes needs to take a few more shots a bit closer in as he's been operating from 18+ feet out for the most part. That won't be a high percentage shot, no matter who you are. Rip is turning into a robotic scoring machine - 9 for 10 from the floor for the guard, and shooting over 60% over the past several games. Scary stuff, but good for Pistons. Anyway, a good win to close out the season. Blaha and Kelser ran out of adjectives to describe the win and the team, it was kind of funny. Pistons just keep rolling.
