We had the advantage here, but it took to long to materialize. Coach Brown realizes that Gooden isn't as fast as Verajao and he actally played him more minutes. (13 points and 8 boards in 20 minutes). Either we have to adjust when Verajao is out there or take advantage of Gooden while he languishing out there.

Sheed hit almost everyshot he took from just outside the paint. He needs to exploit that so that he scores more than 15. As Skip Bayless said this morning on 1st and 10, that the Pistons go as Sheed goes. His double/double was just what we needed.
