I will be going to three of them. (Philly, Orlando, Toronto) But I doubt we will need much luck as we get our guys back from the flu.

I agree.

No, I don`t think Rip affects our rebounding. Not playing smart, not boxing out, not attacking the glass as agressively as they shoot 3`s sometimes, affects our rebounding.

If the Pistons don`t recognize and fix this by playoff time it could spell disaster. Between Flip, Cowens, Porter and Ron Harper, you mean to tell me nobody can address this problem? Tonight for example, Kidd grabbed his eight rebounds (his avg) and Tay pulled down eight rebounds (three above his avg). Our bigs C-Webb and Sheed avg seven boards a game!!

When each possession is crucial,and offensive rebounding is a must to continue playing, we might be found wanting come May and June....

I can relate to some of the concerns being voiced, however I really believe all bets are off with so many players out or affected by the flu bug. They are playing awesome in my mind when you consider that.

Agree with that assessment...hey the Pistons won three games this week and just missed winning the 4th at Chicago with a Flu depleted squad. That should scare some contenders and pretenders. As it relates to the rebounding, let hope when all are healthy, that part of the game returns. Without the 3 ball last night, we are looking at another home loss.

10 games to go, they win 8 of those and they clinch #1 seed.

Bah, Bulls ain't all that------lost to the Cavs in OT today.
