Detroit Pistons at Miami Heat Wednesday December 1 7:30 pm Local TV: FS Detroit Nat'l TV: Radio: 97.1 FM The Ticket Chat is open!!!! http://www.pistonsforum.com/playoff-chat/
Wouldn't it be fun to beat this team and watch the Media frenzy as a result of our victory, we could go down in history as the nail in Spoelstra's Coaching Coffin.
We are actually a very similar team to Miami. Neither team has a PG or a Center. This game is actually quite winnable unless Prince gets distracted by LeBron's muscles again.
It would just be fun to beat them. Conversely, wouldn't it suck if Miami's PG ran wild and their bigs destroyed the Pistons in the paint?
You mean add Carlos Arroyo to yet another PG who outplays THE GREATEST PHYSICAL SPECIMEN TO EVER PLAY THE PG POSITION, and Have Joel Anthony go nuts in the paint with a 30/30 Kevin Love type performance.
Who holds the ball more, Tay or Carlos (Arroyo at least bounces it)? Hopefully Stuckey's uncanny resemblance to D-Wade confuses Miami and is good for 3-4 turnovers.
The Heat don't seem interested in blowing teams out, so the Pistons have a chance to keep this close. And Monroe might actually be able to out jump an opposing teams center for once. I wonder if Daye will get any minutes having to guard LeBron/Bosh.
Lets hope the distraction of tomorrows game in Cleveland carries over to tonight and Lebron has 15 turnovers...maybe Rip should paint a picture of the Cavs owner on his mask...
The Heat look at the opponents record. If you have a losing record, then they beat you down and show off their skills. If you have a winning record, then they become dazed and confused.
Cameras just showed Dumars in the stands. On a scale of 1-10 (10 being really bad) how bad is it that I want us to crash so hard that Dumars HAS to do something about the coaching situation and fire Q? Bynum has had at least 3 ultra-terribad plays so far in just a couple minutes of his play and the vets playing keep-away from cv and ben gordon.
halftime highlights anyone?? Pistons shooting 48% from the floor and have canned 3 treys, but find themselves down 12 at the half 54-42. Foul trouble has held Wade has 1 pt, but the Piston defense is allowing Lebron to get easy layups and Bosh is hitting short jumpers with minimal defense to stop him...both ironically have 14 points, 5 boards and 3 assists to lead the charge. Biggest stat is the rebounding where we are getting jumped 33-23. No Daye sightings.. then again no defense sightings on the Piston side either.
Can't watch this any more. It reminds me of that Portland game. The Pistons have absolutely no interest in competing tonight.
If I could reach through my computer screen and punch Rip, Tay, and Will Bynum in the face I would. I want them to lose so bad that media puts so much pressure on the team to make drastic changes....or else this game will represent what the Pistons are going to be for the next several years.
