And Max signed the contract after the very first game of the season right before the deadline. I think he and his agent knew his numbers would go down with the new system. And it looks like they were right by the props to rip on that awesome block.

It seemed to work well in December. The compromise would be playing small ball at the start of the first quarter, then at the 8:00 mark or during the first round of substitutions, Curry would make the substitution and use the normal lineup. I would think that if the Pistons had to keep all the starters happy, this would be the best way to appease them while also helping team chemistry.

Period. That is the one thing that I can't stand about him. That right there says that he is NOT a team player. He hurts the team when he gets techs and the opponent gains momentum after it! Shut up and play basketball. It's getting old, and I'm surprised Curry puts up with it. Bench him. What was the Pistons record when he was hurt? Sheed should stop getting techs. Period.

Sorry 'bout all the grammatical errors, it just frustrates us all to see this team play so cold blooded & well for some stretches & then see the flip-side where they all act like somebody needs to change their "diapers". THis team needed a gamechanger with the Darko pick. Stuckey's pick was the consolation prize I know, but we could of had Melo, D-Wade, I mean, you all know who was in that draft, myself, I like the bigs so I'd of gone with CB4 for now but Joe D would of prolly gone with Melo seeing as how we Had the wallace bros or whatever. * Amir come into his own.

His numbers are way down this year. WHy sign him to htat contract to be the undersized beast in the paint if the Curry chicken isnt going to play him? Joe & Curry not on the same page? Its as if Curry has Flip syndrome of being scared of the teams bigs outside of Sheed & Dyess. I really thought this was the year when Amir started to come into his won stop fouling every time down the court? WHats the deal? Sitting ont he bench for those years didnt teach him not to foul? What has to be done? I also think AI needs to be the 6th man, play with AA, Fabio, Dyess/Max/Kwame. He can create and that way hed be playing against the other teams second unit, you know insert all those Ginobili arguments here. What is the deal with Rip? I didnt realize he was so egotistical about his starting spot. Hes the captain. He should act like it. Im starting to think Joe D traded the wrong backcourt starter. I think now Chauncey & Stuckey would have been netter than Rip & Stuckey. But I hope Im wrong. THis team needs Rips mid-range game. But not his finesse. With Sheed aging into the perimeter shooter he always wanted to be this team needs physicality, and in the D it's always been about Defense, correct? I just dont understand how these guys slack on D at times. This team is still too complacent, 1 of the posters above me is correct. I miss Big Ben more than ever, he covered up all these "flaws" with his intensity & work on the court. I know Joe D did the right thing letting him go but he really was the most "bout it" player on the team. I wish we had even just one player who cared like he did. And I think Tay is the closest to it, but hes just not a game changer like Big Ben was. What’s with Max? His numbers are way down this year.

Although I do believe the job was Curry's to lose. We need guys how will take over mentally on this team. That is one reason I hated the AI trade. He is a soldier, not a leader.

If they could figure that out and fix it they'd be fine. That's not just this year either. This has been happening for years. Even with Billups. As much as we all like the players on this team, I think that things still need to be shaken up a little more, because even with AI they still look like the same old Pistons.
