The Pistons in Chicago to take on the 22-29 Bulls. Rodney Stuckey, who’s been held under 10 points the last 4 games, isn’t putting up same kinds of performances he did the last time these two teams met. Needless to say another 40 point game would be just the medicine the Stuckey would love to swallow.
Yes the Piston really are 27-22 losing 11 of their past 17 overall and are barley holding on in the in the Easten Conference standings a half of a game in front of Miami in the fifth spot and just and 13 games back of Cleveland. Something that Pistons fans aren’t quite used to.
The Bulls…well they are currently outside the playoff picture, and trail the division leading Cavs by 18 games.
Good News/Bad News and More:
- The Bulls are rested, they haven’t played since Saturday night.
- Allen Iverson and Will Bynum are bothered by the Flu. They are questionable for tonight’s game.
- The City of Detroit isn’t so bad after all. Suck it Chicago and Cleveland.
- Defending Michael Curry.
- The Bulls would like to get a hold of Amare too.
- Rip is doing just fine, in fact he’s thriving.
- UPDATE: AI won’t play
Tip off is at 8:30 P.M. and will be locally televised on FSN. If you can’t watch the broadcast, tune into 1130 AM WDFN The Fan. Can’t do either? Follow the game on NBA.com.

maybe now that joe d sees how we can play without the answer maybe hell try and trade ai before the deadline for shaq or another big man who knows im praying tho that will happen
ben, are you on fucking crack or something? You fuckin hater. Get a life please. If they play better w/o AI, why the fuck didn’t they close out the game? Im so glad they lost this game otherwise, your gonna see fucking morons spamming “see! were better w/o AI!” “We don’t need a player who plays like its his last game!” People like you really need to see a doctor.
we dont need ai u dumbass we need a big man to block shots and get rebounds and stop points in the paint what team are u watchin?? ur a joke
I won’t blame AI for any of their losses, but my point is that he doesn’t fit into the way this team plays. And when he doesn’t play they return to more of a half court team which I think gives them their best chance at winning games. As far as loosing a huge lead in the fourth, who knows what’s going on. It could either be bad strategy by the coaching staff, but to loose that big of lead late in the game normally I think players would get the blame. I think an earlier post nailed it, I just think some of these guys don’t care anymore because they know they’re not that good this year. That’s why this team needs another shakeup to get rid of the complacency.
Now,now….
It’s part coaching and part players.
I’ll be happy if we make the playoffs.
The coach is in over his head.
The players are young or in the case of our vets;
I think are just not mentally tough enough.
Ben and C.B. whatever you may think of their diminishing skills with age had a mental edge.
The remaining vets are as children.
Not a rant on them just who they are.
A.I. is a very good player for the style he plays,
hope he does us proud in the allstar game.
He’s doing his best to fit in and blaming him is childish.
I feel for Antonio,he deserves better!lol
I’ll be glad when this year is over….
It’s like banging your head up into a brick wall,over and over again.
Oh well,hope the best defensive team wins it all!
From someone who may never see her beloved pistons
get an other ring(sigh).
Everyone have a wonderful day!
Big man? BIG MAN? Last time I checked, Pistons have a big man. His name is Kwame Brown you crack addict. When Chauncey was here, how come we didn’t need a big man? Nobody was saying Pistons needed a big man. AI is 4 inchs shorter than Chauncey. Your saying 4 inches changes your mind about wanting a big man? Get the fuck outta here, your a bannwagon and a hater. Bitch

this team doesnt seem the same, its only been one season, since we were good wht a downfall D:
Well, another dissapointing loss…i got my blood pressure up by screamin at them last night all for what? I don’t know if i wanna care anymore about this team. I’m a diehard til the end but until they turn somethin around, i will just expect a loss everytime they come onto the court or at least until the final minute of the games. Something needs to be done before Joe D starts losing fans, they are gettin pi55ed with this team and i don’t see it getting better. 4 games over .500? Are you kiddin me? I can’t explain what the hell happens to us in the 4th quarter and i knew it would happen. We have to grind games to the last second, that means play hard until the game is over. When you have a 15 pt lead on a team, KEEP POUNDING THEM, don’t just stop and get complacent with the lead. I wish AI ‘n Dyess could play on a winning team so they could win a title. They both deserve that much…cuz it ain’t gonna happen here. And to think I’m goin to the game tonite, i don’t even wanna see them play, they disgust me. We will be on a 3 game losing streak and only 3 game over .500 goin into all star break. How does that sound pistons fans?
another heart breaker..
in my opinion, this recent slide has nothing to do with AI, team chemistry and coaching staff. by parting with Chauncey, the team lost its leader and the intangibles he bring that doesn’t count on the stat sheet. he always keep the pistons in control of things.
the trade last november, talent-wise is really good. you get a superstar who is a proven scorer and a future HOF but we give up Chauncey who has intangibles, basketball IQ and the mental toughness he brings in the game. eventhough Chauncey is catching up father time, Denver just got what they wanted in Chauncey. AI will just blend in the right time but for Tay, Sheed and Rip they should accept the responsibility what Chauncey is doing for the team in the past 5 years.
While Coach MC should have be better calling the right plays and never lost composure.
This team sucks lol.. LETS GO RED WINGS!
yeah a big man u jackass a big man that knows how to play basketball not just ride the pony he sucks he cannot ball we need a big man that knows how to play defense and score we needed to so shut the hell up why are u talkin bout chaunceys height compared to chaunceys? and because we had ben wallace here when chauncey was here that could block shots and get rebounds remember DENFENSIVE POY 4 out of 5 years DUMBASS
I’m surprised Hartford wasn’t in the top 10 worst cities. No sports teams at all, high crime rate, high taxes, terrible highway system, lame nightlife, and a miserable job market. I think 99% of Hartford residents would move to Chicago in a heartbeat if they could.
Big man won’t matter in a system not designed for help defense cause Curry wants everyone to stick on they’re man. THEN to top it off AI, Stuckey Tay, Rip have no idea to keep they’re man in front of them and out of the paint.
Ben, you fucking dumbass, how come the pistons weren’t this bad last season? They didn’t have a big man you fuckin tard. They didn’t get 23 losses till it was April. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT YOU WH0R3. kthxbai.
