    chauncey billups is injuried too along with atkins...terrible state with injuries right now.If we don't have wallace for the playoffs then we are finished...plain and simple

    Pistons worse nightmare happened tonight. Ben Wallace cannot be replaced and the Pistons are looking at not only losing the #1 seed but also a first round exit.

    My fearless prediction:
    The Pistons will win their first round series with or without Big Ben, and he should be healthy enough by the 2nd round, so there's still life in the Pistons. Never count them out.

    eh...i think if u guys go up against the bucks or orlando in the first round there's a good chance you're gonna get knocked out even with Ben...if billups and Ben are 100% then you gotta good shot but without either of them 100% to be brutally honest i think detroit is in trouble =/

    When will we find out how long he'd out for? Good test for the PIstons in the remainder of the season to play w/o him, maybe they should get used to it.

    He's having his MRI today, so the results should be released sometime today.

    Man, why did he have to get injured? Now he won't be an impact on my fantasy team in rebounds

    Everybopdy on the Eastern Conference is injured all of a sudden.

    Iverson
    Coleman
    Van Horn
    Wallace
    Billups
    Atkins

    Looks bad for both team, both very high in the rankings.

    he might miss the first game of the playoffs or maybe the first two which still leave the pistons with a good chance...but if his knee is not 100% i don't really know how effective he can be...so its yet to be seen how his injury is gonna affect the pistons playoff run i think..

    Ben Wallace will be fine, but Vinsanity is screwed. But it is the offseason just about for the raptors. (what a horrible season)

    Yeah, good news about Ben. I think they'll be OK for the playoffs, as long as they play sparingly until then.

    I never knew so many Raptor fans were also Piston fans. I guess I thought you hated them. Good to hear though.
