Dyess was a monster who came to win. His boards were ridiculous, and he manned up on Howard and Lewis when it counted.
Rip got what he needed for himself and also picked up what would have been Chauncey's.
Tayshaun has been unstoppable since the playoffs began. His block on Mo Evans is tied with Maxiell for Block of the Year. (
YouTube - Jason Maxiell - Block of the Year (2008) ) Evans looked around confused, and then fell on the court.
Lindsey showed dirty little Dooling why he has 3 rings.
Sheed played great defense and knocked down his shots when it counted.
Flip Saunders managed the clock and the timeouts well, and did an excellent job with the substitutions.
Chauncey did an excellent job coaching from the sidelines. He couldn't help himself!
Stuckey played big for a rookie and showed that he has heart.
The Pistons are rolling, and should be able to end this in Detroit while giving Mr. Bigshot a few more days to rest up.
I think the Pistons should let Chauncey sit one more out and see if they can finish this one up in Detroit.
