The Pistons defeated the New Orleans Hornets 101-93. Not a big win, but a nice one. I'm not too happy about it though. This is the first game of the year that we didn't have are starting lineup intact. It's not a big deal, but it was a nice record, and I didn't want them to lose it.Eh, let's start it up again.McDyess is stepping it up, wow he's amazing.
You know what, it was a great record that we had going and it is fun to get those kind of things, but i am glad it ended on a suspension due to an abundance of T's than any type of injury. About the game tonight, i thought it was great because we got to see Dyess give us some quality minutes, put up some big numbers, and most importantly, get his confidence where it needs to be heading into the postseason.I thought Dale Davis gave some hard minutes and he will be a huge inside presence come playoff time. And if anyone is still questioning Joe-D on his acquisition of Tony Delk, i think he has proven his worth and he will be a valuable defender and scorer off the bench.Hey, 60 wins, its not 74 straight games with the starters, but i think the opportunity these bench guys got tonight helps to make us fans feel a little bit better about the suspension.FREE SHEED!!! He'll be let loose for Thursdays game, well and rested!!I'm out-- AB3
^ Yea I expect Sheed to come out firing against the Heat. We played a great game tonight. Tayshaun played great early and Chauncey dominated the tempo and made plays all night. Congrats to the Pistons. First team in the league to 60 wins.

We won though but it wasn't like we dominated.
