Mixed Bag – The Pistons’ bench has been a pretty good barometer for how their nights go. It’s usually good in wins and not so good in losses. Saunders shortened the rotation in Utah, probably partly as a nod to Utah’s hex over them and partly because they now get two days off before playing the Clippers on Saturday night. Amir Johnson didn’t get into the game for the first time since joining the rotation four weeks ago and Arron Afflalo played sparingly. Afflalo didn’t appear to make any major gaffes, but this stat is eyebrow-raising: While Hamilton was on the floor in his 41 minutes, the Pistons outscored Utah by seven. While Afflalo was out for seven minutes, the Pistons were outscored by 15. Jason Maxiell was the star of the Zoo Crew, scoring 11 points and going 7 of 7 at the line in 21 minutes.
Man, that grates on my nerves.
