From Chris MCCoskey's blog that is not a blog...

There is a good chance that former Piston Darko Milicic will start tonight for the Magic. Tony Battie, the regular starting power forward, is ill and the Magic indicated this morning that they didn't expect him to play. If he doesn't, Milicic will start.

We won't know the status of Chauncey Billups until game time. He strained his right hamstring late in the game at Dallas Thursday. He was pretty sore after, but thought he could get it loose in time to play tonight. You have to believe, though, that if the hammy's even a little bit tender, the Pistons would sit Billups down as a precaution. He has logged a lot of minutes the last two weeks. The Pistons don't play again until Wednesday. This would be the right time to sit him. If that happens, Flip Murray would start at point guard and Will Blalock would make his NBA debut.
