Actually a good loss, brought them down to earth, I hope

You mean like Shaq and Amare?

You're in the minority, pal.

Boozer wasn't even in the game that much in the 2nd half once Millsap got cooking. Could've played Amir on Memo. At least he could close out on all those open 3's.

Kind of looked like the Pistons just ran out of gas in the 4th quarter.

No Max...it was 92-92 and we sucked on Memo again!! I've said for 3 years, if we kept Memo we'd have at least 2 more rings in Motown. Memo willed his team to win and I NEVER see Sheed do that ...even vs Milwaukee he brought us back and choked the game tying three..

I'm only mad cuz we blew the lead and I hate Utah. The Big Love's home court reminds me of the old Boston garden and Memorial Coliseum...

..and I hate Wil Ferrell too..

No adjustment coaching staff again. The players were tough. This is a tough game in the schedule.

Dyss had a good first half. But Milsap went wild around him in the second. It was very evident. No adjustment.

Sheed left Okur early. Not smart. Okur found a rythym. Later he was in a grove as he was left open. Any adjustments here? Okur can't drive.

Utah got up into our offense in the 3rd. Teams have done this in the playoffs. They will do it again. What adjustments has this coaching staff shown us so far. Our offense was pushed back. No adjustments.

What is going to happen in the playoffs when things get tough? Will the adjustments come?

Good point LP. I don't get why Flip would let him guard Snaq but not Boozer or Millsap. And Memo has no physicality whatsoever. Flip is just so inconsistent.

I hear ya. This was a good primer for Flip and the team and they blew it. To get outscored by 12 in the final quarter. To give up 36 in the final quarter. Pretty bad.

Thing is it took the Pistons almost what 6 mins into the 4th until they finally hit their 1st FG? There were some foul shots but no ball movement, no offensive boards, defensive misques.

I agree on Memo. He and Sheed are very similiar players with Sheed as the more talented of the two but Memo never takes a night off.

uhhhhhh..no.

Sloan put his allstar on the bench(Boozer) while playing Milsap and played AK a whopping 18 MINUTES. It was 46-28 when Memo hit his 1st 3 BTW...

Flip would never do that to Sheed and or Tay....

I'm not pinning this one on just the coaching staff tho. Flip can't run out there and guard Okur as he rains down 3's. Would have liked to see him stick with what he'd been doing in the past few games tho.
