Yeah I try to get him shots, although with soo much firepower in the starters and the rookies performing well (esp Maxiell) its hard to Dyess to get the shots, hes happy doing all the tough work though

[Its_asdf]

It seems like your popular enough already, so I'll just say what most people who are too brain-dead to think of anything remotely decent to say:

"OMG DUDE KEWL DYNASTY!"

[Mark.]

The Pistons start March with an easy match-up against the Magic,
However they must make sure they dont make the mistake of taking it too easy.
Dwight Howard will try to make the Detroit interior work hard on defense,
while the young and athletic Magic backcourt players will try to out run their Detroit markers.


Sorry i must have forgot to save the boxscores


No Boxscores so therefore I wont bother with the recap, lets just say it was a blowout.
I think Rip dropped over 40 maybe....

After destroying the Magic the Pistons now move onto the Nets.
This is potentially the toughest matchup for the Pistons, and it will be interesting to
see how they deal with the fast paced offence of the Nets.


Boxscores: [Nets]|[Pistons]


As many expected this game was one of pushing the ball up the court for the quick baskets.
The Nets showed the Pistons that to beat them they will have to do it on their terms.
So Detroit complied, almost matching the Nets for each basket throughout the 1st half.
However once the 2nd half started the Pistons came out with fire in their eyes
totally over running the Nets, and showing them that they are superior even in a fast paced game.

The Pistons played great team ball with 5 players scoring in double figures.
Sheed led the Pistons with 25 points on 10-15 shooting, also adding 5 boards and 4 assists.
Calros Delfino played great in 14 minutes with 11 points on 4-5 shooting.
Richard Jefferson and Vince Carter dominated on offense with 29 and 30 points respectively.
Jason Kidd had 7 points 5 steals and 7 assists.


Big Ben has been making some brilliant posters of late || Jason Maxiell has been playing with great promise lately

The Pistons are in great form, beign able to pull almost anything out of the bag for the win, things look promising for the playoffs.

Cliff with the Big Block on Rip, maybe Rip should stick to his jumpers || Antonie Wright has had a decent season so far for the Nets.

The Pistons now host the Bulls
At this point of the season all teams are lookin to upset the Pistons.
Detroit will look to exploit the Bulls weaknesses on the interior, so expect to see a lot of shots to Sheed.


Boxscores: [Bulls]|[Pistons]


As expected the Pistons Dominated the Bulls, however it wasnt in the way many expected.
Many thought it would be due to domination by the Detroit front court,
instead it was Rip Hamilton who was the main reason behind the Pistons emphatic win.

The Pistons led from the start and never lost their lead, although it stayed close for most of the 1st half.
However the Pistons dominated the second half, as seems to be the trend this season for them.

Rip had a great game with 41 points, he also added 6 rebounds and 3 assists.
Sheed was held to 4 points on 1-10 shooting, and he only played 20 minutes as he could never get into the flow of the game.
Ben Gordon led the Bulls with 21 points and 4 assists on 8-15 shooting.
Tyson Chandler had a effecient game with 10 points and 12 boards on 5-8 shooting.


Billups had a decent game but turned the ball over 8 times, Hunter backed him up well.

The Future of the Bulls, Gordon and Chandler both had solid games.

Its not a Pistons game without a highlight dunk from Prince || Evans has been a good asset off the bench this season.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________

With a win tonight the Pistons can make this another undefeated month.
The Hornets look to be the easiest competition for the Pistons this month,
but once again, teams are trying to upset the league leading Pistons so Detroit will have to stay focused.


Boxscores: [Pistons]|[Hornets]


Rip Hamilton dropped 40 points for the second consecutive game
and the Pistons kept on rolling.
After a low scoring first quarter the Hornets had no answer for the Superior Pistons.
With Rip on fire and the rest of the team playing their parts perfectly the Pistons we far too much for the young Hornets.

Rip scored his second 40 point game on 17-31 shooting, also adding 4 boards and 3 assists
Chauncy Billups was on the distubuting end of alot of Rips points, dropping 16 dimes on the Hornets.
Chris Paul led a balanced Hornets effort with 17 points and 9 assists, but also 8 turnovers
David West added 14 points and 8 rebounds.



D Mase jumped clean over Rip Hamilton in this dunk || J.R. Smith dropped a few highlight dunks himself.

Ben Wallace went down with an injury in the 4th, but was cleared to play the next game. The Hornets will be felling this thunping in more than one way.

Billups embaraasing Chris Paul in front of the Hornets Crowd || Alex Acker knocking down a 3, Pistons management are impressed with his performance so far.
