I'm not saying Flip shouldn't have played Alf and Amir. I just don't think the problem was with the front court or backup guard position. Wallace, Maxiell, and Ratliff did an excellent job up front, and although Stucky and Hunter were not especially effective, I don't think this game hinged on their play. Would Alf have done a better job than Hunter? Maybe, but he hasn't really been a great scorer so far, and it seems we really needed more scoring. The Pistons scoring drought was very long in the 2nd half. How does Alf help?
