i'm ready for chat. i'm so excited to finally get to watch darko play while the rest of the piston fans watch too. now people can see for themselves the impact he has on the game whether he scores 10 or 2 points. people have said all along that stats don't tell the whole story now people can watch for themselves and make thier own conclusions. if darko starts nazr will get owned. i am a loyal piston fan but darko > nazr. tonight i feel torn but i've been a fan of darko's since he was a piston so i feel no need to stop because he's playing against us. people should have been loyal to him when he was here. now they will see what happens when potential becomes production. i like to be proven right.
I'm going to keep an open mind about Darko. And I hope we whup his butt to show the new kids on the block who rules this roost.
That's hilarious. ...and so true! Like I mentioned before I won't be at the chat because I will be attending the game live but I'm sure my spirit will be honored by the Low. Should be alot of fun.
I just got free tix to the Bulls game. I'll be recording the Pistons though, and I hope that I can avoid the score while I'm at the game. Nothing worse than recording a Pistons game and then seeing the score... well I suppose there are a few worse things.
If Billups is a scratch for this game, I'm thinking we'll see FlipM fill in nicely. Will it be frustrating? Yessir! Will it be ugly? Probably. But the guy can scrap and score and we have able ball movers in Rip, Tay, Delfino.
BBJ, If the Darko gang does us, I don't want to hear...well CB was lame...it was a B2B...FlipM sucks...etc. MoPi's new name will be "I got Darkod". Let's take the loss like a man! Anybody going to warm up the Magic forum?
That would be very easy. He is playing against his former team and he never seen a pump fake he didn`t fall for. If Darko starts he will have 3 fouls in the first 5 minutes if the Pistons play smart.
How many points will the former Pistons have tonight? The over/under is 33 if you take their per game averages.
The return of the lesser known Agent Zero. For Gilbert Arenas, it is a super hero moniker, for Darko, it is a playing style...
The term 'Former Pistons' includes Grant Hill. Did you include him? If he is included, I go for the over.
Pistons down by 4. Sheed blocked Dwight Howard just before the half YouTube - DHO Blocked by SHEED JMax rung up two fouls on Darko and chased him from the game (no lie).
Pistons win it! 87-83. Tie game, 82 all, with 2 minutes left...and then the Pistons played lockdown D. Darko turned it over on a 3 second call, Rip hit a jumper, Darko bobbled a pass in the lane, and Rip hit another jumper. What a weird week...losing at Charlotte and at HOME to Portland, but then winning on back-to-back nights at Dallas and at Orlando.
Great win. Veteran savy tool over in crunch time. Don't think we had the lead in the 2nd half until the final 3 minutes. 31 points by Billups. Everyone played well. Even those without big stats contributed. Very frusterated Sheed out there having to guard Howard along with his ref support. I know its going to get talked about. I did not see how Darko made any difference at all. Often forgot he was out there. Guess he had a bad game.
I can't figure it out. Thought they might get one of them with how teed off they were. Orlando ( except for Howard ) did not impress me. Take away his ref support and I don't know.
