They had Joe D. on 1270AM today and they asked him about Iverson for Chauncey. Joe D. claims he was never offered the deal directly from Philly. Hmmmm... where there is smoke there is fire... Some backdoor wheeling and dealing perhaps.

No AI. No CWebb. No Steven Hunter. (who? Aurora Kimmie Lights Novice shotblocker, that's who!). GO PISTONS!

awwwww! using the nickname I gave u.....Im humbled!

This was like beating the Spurs without Duncan, Ginobili, and Parker. Except we had to give our starters heavy burn to get er done... and hit a lot of 3's.

Out rebounded and shot more treys than FTs.

Happy to get the win, and the licence to hunt down and destroy the forum Sith, but this is smoke and mirrors basketball. This style is good for ONE win in the playoffs.

They are the archetype for dominance. They are the gatekeepers of the conference. They are the Detroit Pistons.

We are starting to use Tay more in the offense--finally. The results should hold up. The pass to Billips for the three off the double is a prime example. As long as it is not dump the ball into Tay and let him go one on one, he will have opportunities to score for himself and open things up for others as they cut. He has been our true all-star so far this year.

We should also use Tay on any break or mini-break and I notice that Billips is. Tay is almost impossible to stop in the open court.

We are sending Rip in a bit too much inside. He is reliable with the short jumper and that knee injury could have been prevented.

Dyss starting the 4th as our center did not work. Who can help Sheed down low is a re-curring theme? For us to get a title, it will have to be resolved. Sheed's defensive ability down low is exceptional but he needs for someone to be able to slide along and play next to him. Dyss is a jump shooter whether we like it or not. He is starting to hit his shots when he releases immediately.

Delfino hit a shot. Until he can do that with consistency, he can not have the impact people wish for.

I knew people would be complaining after this win. Piston did get out boarded by 8 but so far have had a slight edge on the glass this season. That means up to this game they have been rebounding better than last season.

Pistons took 7 more 3's than the Sixers but they did win the paint war with a 38-36 edge in paint points. Held the Sixers to 39% shooting.

6-5 now with a 10 point win on the road. This is good.

I know their PM address.
Perhaps we can get the lovely Princess AuraK to negotiate a truce?
