Classic.

As always AA=Win. Let's see how Flip's math is.

edited to add;
I think it's gotta be more than 5 seconds. 5 min is the minimum ppl!

AA > Jarvis. We can win or lose either way. However, I'll take my chances with a bench player who can play D and scores unselfishly in the flow of the offense over a streaky one-dimensional 3-point shooter.

I don't dislike Jarvis, I just think we have 2 better options at that spot. If we can go small, the AA is the answer. If we have to go big, then Walter should get the minutes.

Don't forget option #3 or you'll have the Amir Johnson HOF club on your azz!

With Amir, I don't think it matters what position you tell him to play. He's going to be hanging around the paint and playing like Rodman anyways.

I can see where a coach would be nervous to put in Jarvis, Walter, Stuckey, Juan, etc. But it seems to me that putting in AA or Amir is a pretty safe move. The reason is that they almost always deliver with defense and hustle. If they are missing shots, they aren't going to keep shooting them. Also, they avoid turnovers.

I am the first to admit that Jarvis has not been what I and everyone else expected since he arrived here.

He is a scorer, a shooter and nothing else. All teams have one, and some of the Pistons players have said that Jarvis is the best pure shooter on the team.

The seaosn is not over yet and don`t be surprised if he finds his stroke and wins us a game or two in this post season, or should I say help us to a win.

Tonight would be a good time to win one!!!!

Like I said, I don't hate the guy. He shoots a pretty good percentage for a bench player.

I just think his style is better for the regular season when he's a primary scoring option on the bench unit and AA brings more to the table with other starters on the floor. The rotations we are using call for a role player like AA b/c I'd rather have Rip looking for his shot than Jarvis.

I'll be the first to cheer him on when he goes 4-5 from deep tonight. But so far, he hasn't done much with his minutes.

a quick question, is the game delayed?

It's 8pm EDT

Has Hayes been a dissapointment? Kind of but one has to consider that he was a min contract player, you get what you pay for. I did expect at least more consistant scoring from him.

What do the Pistons have to do to win?

1) Contain Dalembert and Evans. Sheed, Maxiel and Dyess should be able to do this. If those guys have a big night then someone is not doing their job.

2) Take care of the ball and crash the boards. Pistons do not need to give away a lot of 2nd chance opportunities tonight, thats a good way to lose the game.

3) Stay on Iggie ( can't spell his name ). Prince has been huge here because we don't have to double team.


I still feel that as long as the Pistons play hard defense and rebound that they can still get a win even if the shooting is off.

Pistons by 10.

I'm disappointed in him.
...not even "kind of", I'm REALLY disappointed in him.
