Re: Pistons/Magic 2nd round game 1, May 3 7:30PM

So is this another example where Flip has been reading PF.com?

Quote:
The Pistons altered their active roster for Game 1. Walter Herrmann was in, and Lindsey Hunter was out.

"We made the move from the standpoint of having another guy that size (6-9) to defend against Rashard Lewis and to defend against (Hedo) Turkoglu," Saunders said. "Walt has always been one of our better perimeter guys as far as putting pressure on people. We think he might be able to help."

Herrmann played nine minutes and had one free throw and three personals to show for it.

Saunders also made the move to potentially limit some of Tayshaun Prince's work load.

"If we can't keep Tay's minutes down, maybe we can at least put him in a position where he doesn't have to guard the best player on the floor all of the time."

Prince played 35 minutes.
