It`s ironic that out of the Pistons last five games, four of them are against teams holding seeds 4 through 7. So, I guess it`s safe to say that Detroit will be facing one of these teams in the first round of the playoffs. The Wiz, currently holding the 5th seed, visit the Palace and try to perhaps improve their seeding to gain HCA in round 1.
The Wiz are full of confidence and more importantly healthy at the moment with their star Gilbert Arenas back, also they are coming off a victory over the Celtics, that makes 3 wins over Boston this year, a feat no other team could do. |
Well the Wiz blew it a chance to move closer to HCA in the first round shooting only 27% while the Cavs were also losing....At least the real Pistons team showed up as Rip returned and although he started off slow managed to dish out 10 assists.
Stat of the night as me and Low discussed in Chat >> Points in the Paint, Pistons 53-Wizards 16 !!
The PIP will go a long way in pushing this team into the finals...expecially vs the C's who normally score a lot in the paint from Perkins, KG and Pierce...and we less we forget the 16 pips or so that big baby bullied on us in January..
With the Sixers loss to the Pacers tonight and the Raptors win over the Nets, the Sixers have now fallen to the 7th spot.......not that we should be afraid of them, but we need to beat the Raptors Sunday to push them back to the 7th spot. No need to be fooling around with the sixers for six games in the first round....
