Re: Pistons Vs Pacers ~ April 9th, 2006

Good game today by the home team. Bench got us going in the second qtr with some hot shooting by Hunter and the starters put the game away in the 3rd qtr as Tay who did not score a single point in the first half, led the Pistons for the game with 17 pts.

Eleven Pistons scored including Kelvin Cato whose squeaky knees got their first action in a Piston game. Dale Davis who took two ugly shots, including a nasty three point attempt was the only Piston who didn't score. His did contribute with 3 meaningless rebounds in the last 4 minutes to go along with Ben "I don't want to go in now" Wallaces's 22 boards. The Pistons outboarded them 52-35 and out assisted them 27-17, and we are finally beating teams in the paint (40-20 today).

Good production from the bench for the 3rd game in a row,but this time they played well in both halves. 45 points, 20 brds, 11 assists, 3 steals. Interesting stat: We only take 8 ft's to their 28. Where was the home cooking?(No FT's by Ben tonight)

The Pacers are heading in the oposite direction as it relates to securing a playoff spot and will probably be facing the Pistons again if they are lucky?? or sitting at home watching. Our opening round opponent is still up for grabs as there are at least 4 teams trying to avoid us.
