The Official Unofficial Detroit Pistons Thread!!!

[Laxation]

i guess so....Blount scored with 0.8 left and they thought they won, haha. They probably thought Billups was gonna get it

yeh lol theyre all rolling around in hysterics thinking theyd won it... dumshits

[air gordon]

That was great That's the first game-winning shot of the year, right?

i don't know what you're definition is for game winning shot but that guy in L.A made a shot w/.6 seconds remaining against denver the other day

...lol. it was a great play by detroit, they executed it well, and boston defended it poorly

again pierce missed some key FT's

i think the other "match winning" shots were to tie the game and go to overtime... not sure about kobes.

I meant game winning shot and buzzer beater

[Matt]

Pistons rack up another win, wiping the floor with Toronto....this is excellent, we get to see Maxiell, Milicic and Delfino. Not to mention that Rasheed only played 21 mins, Ben Wallace 29.

I think 3, must be Milicic record for consecutive games played, lol.

[Doobie]

Man , I was just watching the Pistons shit on the Raptors . I could honestly say I'm falling love with Maurice Evans , he can drive and shoot 3's , and most importantly defend . Man , he's pretty good .


Now I'm off to see the Cavs and Gizzlies. NBA League Pass is the greatest.

[Matt]

wow, our bench is playing pretty good....Flips offense OWNS!!!!!

Pistons scoring 108+ in back to back games just does not happen, and they still played D.

[Laxation]

and wats up with big ben? 7-10 from charity stripe!!! its unheard of

[Matt]

i'm impressed with Billups...his shots are down and assists are up

[Matt]

tonights game was awesome. Ben Wallace's tip dunk had authority. what about Hamilton though, a quite game until the 4th, and Billups once again a clutch 3.

[Riot]

I'm happy for Flip Saunders. I wish him and the Pistons the best. I hope they make the NBA Finals and lose to the Minnesota Timberwolves in 4 games.

[Matt]

Flip Saunders owns, look how much points Hamilton is scoring within 15ft thx to his offense.

And he's got Billups putting up real good assist numbers + still scoring.

[Riot]

Flip is a top 5 coach in the league, no doubts about it in my mind.

He's a genius offensively. Defensively he plays too much zone, IMO.

[Drex]

He's coaching the Pistons, he doesn't have to worry too much about their D

Ive only seen two games this year but from what ive seen there hasnn't been much zone being played. Maybe its the fact that we played so little of it the last 2 years that Flip is getting them used to it. I like the way chauncey is playing though, the exact opposite of what people were saying. 6-0 baby 7-0 After we blast the Blazers in 17mins.

[Riot]

I've only see one game and for the most part he used man to man but Flip had a tendancy to use zone a lot in Minnesota. He's putting Ben Wallace at the top of the zone like he use to do with Garnett here in Minnesota.

[Matt]

another come from behind win. Ben Wallace started a nice run with back to back dunks and Sheed hit a 3.

6-0, great start, and Flip is using Delfino and Davis some now.

[Fresh8]

Good stuff for Flip and the Pistons. They seem to be rolling along very well.

Just wondering... do u prefer the Larry-led Pistons with the tough D or the Flip-led Pistons who have bumped up their scoring in the last few games?

EDIT: Just check... Pistons PPG vs. OPPG is 104 to 89... that's quite awesome.

[Matt]

Larry's antics last season were getting old. Plus he didn't use the bench one bit (except McDyess, his 6th starter) which eventually tired guys out, they played pretty flat in the end especially Prince.

Larry's offense was too predictable and didnt have much freedom.

Flips offense is great for the backcourt....Billups has freedom and Hamilton is the focal point of the offense. Still a long road though, but Flip gets

[air gordon]

i've seen a few pistons games now.. i would say billups has had equal amount of freedom under flip as he did with brown. these past 2 games, the piston have faced 2 poor pg defenders. billups always burns nash. and like brown, flip let him take advantage of the matchup. same goes for today against telfair.

if you dont count these past 2 games, billups shot attempts are down from last year

i'm a little surprised that flip hasn't run many sets for billups like brown did... have rip or prince bring the ball up and have billups come off screens for scoring opportunities

[Matt]

Billups assist numbers are nice. I wonder if either him or Hamilton will make it to he All-Star game.

[Rip32]

One of the two should.

And good win, but when the hell did Darius Miles learn to shoot?!

[Laxation]

if hamilton continues his current form he is a sure thing for the allstar team. i doubt he can continue to shoot 60% though...

[air gordon]

lol another DNP-coach's decision for darko

[Laxation]

he looks like such a tool with his new haircut...
