game time: 7:30 pm and catch game on tsn2 projected starters (emphasize "projected" because the entire piston squad is dealing with injuries) pg: chuck atkins sg: stuckey sf: jerebko pf: maxiel c: ben wallace key reserves: charlie v, bynum and wilcox pg: jack sg: derozan sf: hedo pf: bosh c: bargs 6th man: weems game notes: pistons coming off a game last night in charlotte in which they lost. coach triano said he expects their big guns like gordan and rip to play tonight because of the extended break after the game for the holidays. predictions: raps win 102- 87 and game thread girl...
we're dominating!!!! -the pistons defense looked awesome for the first 6 minutes and then they gassed -stuckey looks terrible- dumars decision to effectively choose him over billups looks like a terrible decision in hindsight, in fact, i would play rip, gordan, and bynum ahead of him -bargnani is bringing the awesomeness
they didnt have their best players in gordan, rip and prince so guys like jerebko got the wide open shots instead of gordan, rip and prince who would have knocked them down. apparently, all three are expected to play sunday so expect a more competitive game next time around. also, charlie v was limited tonight was some kind of knee problem.
