    The back end of a back to back has the Pistons facing the Bucks for the 2nd time this season. Redd and Bogut will be playing in this contest.

    Fabio was 5-6 from beyond the arc in the Pistons victory in Nov. He had 16 points in 18 min.

    The leagues bias against the Pistons is sickening!!! Who else has to play OCK and MIL back to back? This is unfair.

    How can they be boring if it will be close games. Don't see the Pistons owning both of these clubs the way they are playing atm. Pistons might even loose one of them, or even both of them ;)

    Redd is hot. I hope Curry's plan is not to put AI on him.

    You know we don't have to worry about the guys that are hot. It's the guys that are struggling that will surely bust out of their funk tonight.

    I think the league should allow the Pistons to play against a fan selected team of the 12 worst players during All Star weekend and see how they do.

    The looks on our faces during the game when we realize the guys we picked were the Globetrotters, and the Pistons were the Generals.

    :(

    Bucks won their last three games, and five out of their last six. Time to bring them to their real world..:captain:

    If the Pistons can win like 5 in a row I think this should be a confident boast to all the players on the team.

    Our pretty defense and rebounding is back. Thank You Amir! I almost forgot what it looked like. Bad shot by AI to end it (Sheed was open) but otherwise great quarter.

    quad pull.... from a week or so ago, and reinjured last night, probably part of the reason he saw no 4th quarter time last night.

    Great game tonight. Even without Rip (Which in a way helped, no small ball). Player of the game is Amir. He put his stamp all over this game, getting loose balls, rebounding and most importantly a tough inside presence to protect the rim along with Sheed. It was beautiful seeing him and Sheed protect the rim (I hope Curry took notice of this).

    Tay had a great game as well. He abused the rookie Alexander in the 3rd quarter. Straight up took him to school it was funny to watch. Sheed had a great game offensively and defensively. Rodney and AI played pretty well. It seemed like AI had alot of turnovers (didn't check boxscore), but other than that he was solid.

    Overall a great win on a back to back on the road.

    This line-up with Rip in and AI coming off the bench would be fantastic. Amir has that much of an impact defensively, and Sheed plays so much better when he doesn't have to do all the work down low.

    Our offense looked a little painful without Rip. AI was ballhogging a little, but he calmed down eventually.

    These are the type of wins i want to see.

    We didn't give up the lead because we built it with defense!

    8,11, 4 blks; 16, 12, 1 credited blk; great #'s for the starting front court

    Other than a little KB on Bogut, the rotation was strong. I will keep my fingers crossed for that eventual line-up, but i wouldn't be surprised if Rip ends up coming off the bench if he's out long enough with this injury.
