    <h3>Luck With Health Running Out</h3>

    </p>

    In 13 games, the Pistons have played only four times with every rotation player -- other than rookie point guard Rodney Stuckey -- available.</p>

    </p>

    In every other game they've had someone else out. Richard Hamilton missed two for the birth of his son. Rasheed Wallace missed 2 1/2 and Chauncey Billups two games with sore knees. And Antonio McDyess missed a quarter plus three games with a strained left shoulder.</p>

    "I told our guys, the way we're built offensively and defensively is all five guys have to be on the same page," coach Flip Saunders said. "... When you have new guys in and they're not quite on the same page, and they don't understand the rotations quite as much, you have a breakdown, and it becomes glaring." -- <font color="#000000">Detroit Free Press</font></p>
