I was going to write that one off as a 4th game in 5 nights for the Pistons, but it turns out that the Wizards will also be playing their 4th in 5 nights, and as part of a tougher stretch--the first three for them are at Houston, at Dallas, and at Memphis. Pistons start their stretch next Tuesday at Philly, but then they're home for Atlanta and Charlotte before going to Washington.

We were taking inside and doing some nice inside outside plays. Rip was hitting the lane hard today. Sheed was in the paint quite abit.

The bench besides Hunter didn't provide anything, and Maxiell didn't play, but it still was a decent win. When Flip put some of his bench out there during the 2nd we fell 10 or so points. I think thats why Flip didn't go to them much more during the game, aside from Hunter. Good win IMO. What else could you really ask for? Aside from the bench playing a little more it was good.

Like I always say to u youngens, 'last year was last year" and this wizard team is not that good after u shut down Arenas. Back2back games need more bench production and the leader shouldnt be a 37 year old.

was at the game ... was technically a 'sellout', but i'd say only 15,000 of the 22,076 were there. the pistons in general had a lot more energy, and the game actually felt like last year and the year before, where we'd take over in the last 5 minutes and force the opponent into mistakes that cost them the game.

in this case, the victim was deshawn stevenson, who is probably one of the worst / dumbest players in the NBA.

I don't know who they are trying to fool with these sellouts. Either they are not being honest or one of their sponsers is buying the extra tickets.
