Re: Pistons to tweak the 'Jordan Rules' for LeBron? <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><span style="font-size:14pt;line-height:100%">Pistons Tweak Old 'Jordan Rules' For LeBron</span>19th May, 2007 - 11:29 pmSports Illustrated -For now, call it the LeBron Plan.Years ago, the Detroit Pistons had a catchy name -- "Jordan Rules" -- to contain an NBA superstar. Now another star awaits in LeBron James."We've got a name for it," Pistons coach Flip Saunders told The Associated Press on Saturday with a sly grin. "But I'm not going to talk about it now. Maybe later."The Pistons and Cleveland Cavaliers open the Eastern Conference finals Monday night. And while the name of the Pistons' plan may be under wraps, the strategy itself is not quite as mysterious.Tayshaun Prince will be the primary defender, drawing his usual assignment against a star on the perimeter, but he will get plenty of help."It's going to be a collective effort," Saunders said.</div>LinkInteresting. If LeBron plays sub-par, Cleveland has no chance to win any ball game with their supporting cast. Detroit's thinking smart here, lock down LeBron, and let the role players (Gooden, Marshall, Pavlovic, etc) beat you, because whatever they do, the Cavs' play is always going to be dictated by LeBron.
Re: Pistons to tweak the 'Jordan Rules' for LeBron? If it worked in the Bad Boys era, Im 100% confident it can work now.
Re: Pistons to tweak the 'Jordan Rules' for LeBron? were going to be all up in his fade- :laughin1: Like Flip said, were going to foul whoever goes towards the basket hard...dont say we didnt warn ya'll...Sheed and Dale Davis are going to love doing this...
