vs Utah Jazz Wednesday March 10 7:30 pm

The pride of Sweden!

When is the last time the Pistons have beaten the Jazz?

Also is Big Ben out indefinitely?? I saw a scroll at the bottom of NBA TV yesterday indicating this, but no one on the forum mentioned it...or cared..

I hope Ben gets a good long rest.
Ben Wallace helps the Pistons win games.
At this juncture, I don't want the Pistons to win games.

I'd like to see the young guys get some run and become battle tested. They need to be involved in a barn-burner every night and lose each game due to a controversial call in the final seconds.

I must break you.

PISTONS: The PRE Report - March 10, 2010


It's possible that the old and new # 3's will both be out again tonight..

Another national TV broadcast for our Pistons! It's about time we share some of this [strike]excrement[/strike] excitement with the rest of the country.

!#$%^!@^!!!!!

I hate my cable provider more and more each day.

You're not missing much

Low you are missing either the best offensive show vs the Pistons or their worst defensive effort of the season.

Jazz lead 63-43 at the half......Pistons led 29-28 at the end of one. The jazz jumped off to 13-0 run to open the second qtr before the Pistons could stop the bleeding temporarily with a couple of free throws by Bynum. That run by the jazz was their quick and hustling bench who out gunned our bench consisting of bengo, Villanueva, Daye, Atkins and Kwame. The funny thing is that Bengo and CV came in near the end of the first qtr when the Pistons were playing the jazz tough enough to hold the lead. But as soon as Daye, Atkins and Kwame came out to open the second, that is when the Jazz run began and coach K quickly yanked those three and put the starters back in with the Uconn FA's...

Halftime stats include 59% shooting for the Jazz to the Pistons 39%...Jazz already have 20 assists to the Pistons 11 and the jazz have doubled up the paint scoring 32-16.

So be happy that you are not witnessing this.... The Jazz played last night and the Pistons have not played since Sunday.....

The commentators hit on the nail on the head, there is no one on one basketball on the Jazz team. They get rid of the ball and find the open man.....but still won't win the title

Lets see if the Pistons show some pride in the second half and at least make a game of it.

Down by 13 after 3 periods and JJ is plus 8. Somebody's playing well.

If the clueless coach would have just left JJ in the entire game, we would have won.

Pistons score over 100 points for the 5th time in the last 7 games, and have lost all but one of them. Yep that means that our offensively challenged team has actually been scoring in March, but they can't stop anybody else from scoring.

The Pistons actually won the 3rd and 4th qtrs, but could not get the key stops when they appeared to be getting the offense going themselves, so once again they come up on the short in of a score for the 42nd time this year.

The second unit could not play any D to save their lives and that is why the Jazz were able to blow it open in the second qtr and then extend the lead to open the 4th.

Both teams put seven players in double figures, but the Jazz had nine players with assists as they really know how to move with out the ball, get open and find the open man hit the basket.

A lot of early blowouts tonight before the losing teams made it respectable. Although the Celtics never recovered and were blown out by 20 at home to the grizzzzzzz

With the changes made in the offseason, this is actually what most people predicted Detroit would be like this year....better offense, worse defense.

I will write this one up tomorrow. Suffice it to say for now, this loss you can pin on Dumars, for hiring his buddy Atkins instead of a legit NBA player. That 2nd quarter opened with Chucky out there. Disaster. All for now.

Yeah, The Pistons would be 40 and 15 if it wasnt for Chucky atkins.
