Game's just about over, and the Raps got blown out. Bosh has a new career high of 37, but the team played sluggishly and no one defended the perimeter. We actually tied our own NBA record though, 3 turnovers in a game.
To be fair though, tonight's game was more of Detroit's dominance than us just sucking. I mean, Bosh had a career night with 37 11 5 3, the bench was amazing, and we tied an NBA record (that belongs to us) with 3 turnovers, and we were still blown out, kind of.
You know, they tried, losing by 7 to the Pistons really isn't that bad, Bosh did great against a great interior defense, but our lack of defense also showed in this game. A few examples: #1 - doubling Tayshaun Prince on a post up 20 feet from the basket and leaving Billups open. #2 - Doubing Ben Wallace posting up 12 feet away from the basket and leaving Rip open.
The game wasn't as close as thebox score indicates, but it was fairly close in the early 3rd when the raps made a run, but the Pistons are just better than us. We have to many flaws to keep up with them. I think it's about time we call up Ben Wallace V2.
