On defense, what else but DETROIT BASKETBALL 'lock up' DEFENSE.

Jzchen's prescription for our Detroit offense in Game 3 sounds pretty good to me. Also, I am so impressed that until this round 3 Miami he hasn't even been able to see the games where he is in Malaysia. Round 1 and 2 he was getting up in the middle of the night or on line at work to join us for games this playoff season. Acclimades
and accolades to jzchen.
As for myself, I just want to say
"More please." So
last game to see Ben get touches and score, and to see Chauncey and Rasheed wake up some from their long scoring slumber. I'm not a numbers cruncher fan yet, but common sense tells me that if Rip and Tay are our only steady scorers we can count on game in and game out, it's an uphill road all the way.
I hope Sheed's ankle is working itself out the way Rip's did.
And I hope Chauncey will drive to the basket again, get some midrange scoring again, and build some kind of offensive flow and success for himself.
I'd really just like to see some consistent execution of our offensive game. Something we could build on for the rest of our run, no matter how long it lasts. It would be reassuring to me as a devout fan as we go forward. Plus I wouldn't be so freaked out about Flip.
BIG BEN! RASHEED! CHAUNCEY! OH MY! BIG BEN! RASHEED! CHAUNCEY! OH MY!
BIG BEN! RASHEED! CHAUNCEY! OH MY!
