    why bother? One guy that doesn't play for the pistons had a better game than another guy that doesn;t play for the pistons. Its like endless games of tic tac toe.

    The bulls are winning. Ben's numbers are a little down but the bottom line is still there.

    I don't usually make a point of checking except when the Pistons lose. His stats and the Bull's losing use to make me feel better LOL. So much for that now . . .

    Maybe because going at bballjay over his anti-Ben "ism" is about the closest I get to lashing back at a media that has villanized one of the greatest Pistons of all-time for the past couple of months. I can't help but root for Ben based on how much he has meant to this organization and the city of Detroit.

    15 pts, 20 boards, 5 blocks, 2 steals, Bulls record 12-10.

    This is why its good for the local media to keep shut as tempting as the Bulls/Ben's slow start was. Now with the Malcontent bit and media guys going off on what they could not say about Ben until now. Just makes us look bush league and I would not be surprised if it also helped motivate them.

    looks like Ben's becoming his old self again- he has racked up 25 boards (9 offensive, 16 defensive) along with 10 points, 5 assits, 3 steals and 3 blocks. Now that's a performance.

    I'm happy for him. I still think it was a huge mistake to let him go.

    Not bad for a washed-up malcontent.

    That line is obscene! How could Scott Skiles possibly play that old geezer for 48 minutes?

    The most impressive stat is that he didn't miss a single FT all game!

    Seriously though, 27 boards. Man, that's almost Darko #s right there.

    So he didn't sit for 1 second and he only had 1 foul at the end of this game? This has got to be the greatest statistical performance of his career. I only watched the first 15 minutes and he had 10 boards by that point, and I couldn't wait to see how it turned out... had to go see the James Bond movie though, not bad, but I digress. And Bogut only scored 4 points!? You have got to be joking.

    Ben made it really easy to calculate his +/- tonight.

    To have 27 boards when the opponents are shooting more than 45% for the night. Not many people can do that in the NBA now.

    More satisfying than having a triple double.

    So Linwood, I'm guessing you don't want to trade Ben? :) BTW, I didn't give you a compelling reason to trade Ben because I couldn't come up with one. ;)

    27 boards is the star at the top of the Xmas tree. 6 assists and 3 blocks goes to show you just how valuable a guy like Wallace can be.
