The Pistons visit Darko and the dissapointing Grizzlies on the front end of a back to back. Might be a high scoring affair as the Griz allow their opponents to score just over 105 ppg, while scoring 103 ppg.

If we let Gasol and our ex HVC get on the offensive boards, we will be in trouble. Most of the games we lost, offensive rebounding by our opponents has always been pretty easy.

Darko looked gimpy the last 2 games. He can't jump or shoot because of the ankle and thumb. Gasol has been playing with some passion though.

Hopefully Tayshaun is out of his shooting slump. Good news is that this season Rip, Tay, and CB have all had stretches where their shooting has been off, yet we are stll playing .700 ball after 20 games....a testament to team depth and talent.

Rasheed Wallace did not attend the Pistons' shoot-around at FedEx Forum Tuesday morning. Coach Flip Saunders said Wallace stayed at the hotel with flu-like symptoms. His playing status will be determined at game time, but Saunders said that because he missed shoot-around, he most likely would not start.
Either Nazr Mohammed or Jason Maxiell would start in his place.

Pistons' Rasheed Wallace ill, unlikely to start vs. Grizzlies

Minutes for AJ anyone?

nope. amir's minute's won't be increased but jmax will go for 20 and 10. i've watched memphis a lot this season and outside of darko their interior defense is very suspect. if darko is checking jmax look for a lot of tip dunks from jmax as darko usually helps the perimeter players who can't stop dribble penetration.

If Maxey continues his pattern of getting into early foul trouble when he starts AJ could get some non-garbage time burn tonight. Nazmo better be ready to bring his A game vs Darko.
