This should be one of the easiest games of the year, right?

A slumping Miami with no Shaq and no Zo. Is Doleac going to play? Is he still in the league?

I love games like this. Let Amir run wild.

Let me know what they say about the dead man walking.
Could anyone be crazy enough to give up recruits for Shaq.
Someone actually suggested Shaq to Detroit. It's all so wrong.

That usually means trouble for the Pistons. They seem to thrive when they are supposed to lose.

One step forward, 60 steps back.

Our coach is an effin joke. I just got home and checked the box. Am i missing something or is there a reason Sheed/Rip have played the whole game, and Amir has gotten no minutes??

AGAINST THE MIAMI HEAT

Tough win against a terrible team. Aside from a good end to the 2nd quarter and a strong 3rd quarter, it was a pretty indifferent performance, although the defense and execution were good enough in the clutch to pull it out. Starters all played between 36-38 minutes, although CB only had 32 as Stuckey played a lot...rather poorly, unfortunately, -11 for the game. But CB was +16.

Amir got two minutes. Hell, the only subs that played any significant time were Stuck and Maxiell. That's like a "look Joe, I played the kids" move. Just when I thought the guy was making progress, he reverts back to his stupid old habits. Flip was saying only Stuck and Maxiell would get consistent PT every game, and Amir and Afflalo would see "situational" minutes - way to reward hard work and production, Flip.

Good god, what a crappy win!!!

I didn't think it was THAT bad...AA got 11 minutes, probably would have been more if the unit that started the 4th quarter hadn't given away the entire 11 point lead they had after 3.
