    Curry has lost this team (at least the vets) similar to how Porter lost the entire Suns roster. How bad was that situation for Porter to get fired 4 months into a 3 year deal. Now they owe him like $6 million. Ouch. Joe should follow suit.

    And Rip was dogging Sheed’s dancing? Ha I just love the fact he went for it and actually did the dance.

    I also find myself enjoying watching Zaza. The only thing better than that from Zaza is watching him get in KGs face for acting like a punk

    To Juice: Wow, Zaza was.. something. XD That was hilarious.

    Rip’s Dance: Um… the dance was TERRIBLE! XDDD But you got to give it to Rip for laughing the whole time. A smile on the face of a Piston is something we need.

    I want to come to Detroit. I want a team that is struggling so I can bring them up and show everyone I am better than Kobe. C’mon Detroit come get me.

    This is just disgusting to watch. They play like crap at home against bad teams, and then they wonder why the sellout streak ended. The Bucks have no business coming in and handing the Pistons their asses like this. The players look like they don’t even care anymore.

    This rebuilding might be a lot tougher than I thought. I’ll keep cheering them on, but right now the future looks pretty grim.

    Does anyone else think that Billups is smiling somewhere right now. It’s become very obvious that he meant everything to this team. Shouldn’t have let him go Joe. Bad move. Who cares about cap space. Sheed would have given them enough to get someone good in the next 2 years.

    Hey guys Curry went zone and we almost won. Anyone else noticing everything he said at the beginning of the season, he’s doing the opposite now?

    Yay! Mcdyess plays his ass off an gets a loss! Way to go Pistons!… Mcdyess shouldn’t be playing his heart out for this shit on team w/ a half brained coach. You should’ve stayed w/ Billups 🙁

    I noticed the ZONE right away…so now it’s not about principle anymore the dude is just trying to save his job. Should have listened a long time ago Curry.

    SORRY DYESS

    FYI…still having trouble with the site today….I think it was David Stern

    SHHHHHHH

    So are all of the optimistic people finally going to admit that they Pistons are done this year? Way to go guys, you have the entire All Star break off and you lose to the Bucks at home. Now we all know what it’s like to be a Thunder or Wizards fan. This team can’t win a game to save their lives.

    Honestly, how did it come to this? They really weren’t that bad after the trade, but lately they just plain SUCK.

    haha that’s funny natalie I don’t care who you are right there.

    But Sheed and Dyess both impressed me down the stretch. Now if the guards would do what they need to do, we could be getting somewhere

    Great just what Detroit needs, another Rod Maraneli. A coach just trying to save his job. If that’s what he’s doing just fire his ass. At least an interim coach would develop our bench and young players.

    I know you guys are mad, but how about we talk about what was good about this game.

    Curry learning he is not playing and zone can help some of the other players.

    Dyess showing us what we can possibly look forward to with him as a starter.

    Theirs nothing good about the game as long as the half brained “coach” stays around. I wish the fans would start chanting “fire curry.” Just like how Lion fans did to their head coach (I believe it was 2 seasons ago).

    The best thing is that we have San Antonio, Cleveland, Miami, NO, Orlando, Boston and Denver next. We probably could beat Miami but it depends on Wade.

    Natalie, I’ll say it once and I’ll say it again:

    David Stern had nothing to do with this… I still think it was the Cavs haters since no matter what they’re never happy!

    Stern is happy… his wet dream of LeBron vs Kobe is in motion… I mean, he even got Tyson Chandler traded so that CP3 doesn’t have a sidekick anymore! I’m just waiting for the Commish to go Tonya Harding on Tim Duncan’s ACL and then abducting Robert Horry (so he can’t come out of retirement!) so that the Spurs don’t play spoilers to that NBA Finals!

    Since we’re talking about trades… how about this (once again, spare me the WTFs…):

    TRADE CHICKEN CURRY!!!!!! Now that’s a trade I’d get behind!!!! For whom? I have no idea! Just put one of them Fatheads of Chuck Daly! That’ll do a better job than Chicken Curry!!!!!!

    Seriously, what’s wrong with Avery Johnson? I think he’d be great with this group, especially Stuck. They actually need to be overcoached now. I just don’t understand it… Curry is simply obviously not a head coach. On any level.

    I really don’t think this team will make the playoffs.
    I don’t even know that it would be such a bad thing.
    Sort of reminds me of our hapless tigers of last year.Mybe they should all stay home and let the kids play,couldn’t be worse.
    Just feel sorry for antonio!
    He deserves better!
    Yes,he should of stayed with chauncy!

    Anyone here listen to Jim Rome? “Boom, outa here”
    At this point I hope they do miss the playoffs because it will only help our cause getting Curry fired and they’d get a better draft pick. This season has been a total disaster, and I predict it to continue being a total disaster.

    Natalie:

    Thank you for blocking certain posts (or future posts). I read these with my son (12)and quite frankly–although not a prude–the language at times gets embarassing and absolutely not necessary for such a terrific site you have provided us with. Sometimes I use it to “vent” a little (but I am always clean). Even though we are a bit disappointed in our Pistons this year, let’s see what happens over the next 30 games–and more importantly, have a little trust that maybe a step back this season propels us forward over the next several seasons.

    There is no leadership on the floor. No commeroderie. No heart. No team. When is someone on the pistons going to step up and bring the group together?

    People, where is the reality in this?
    Economy wise, Detroit is ready to implode because of what’s going on in the auto industry. People are more worried about surviving than what’s happening in sports. Though it really disgusts me how these spoiled athletes behave like jerks. (See NY Yankees and A-Rod)

    Maybe Joe is playing for the ping pong balls in June and just letting the team tank until Sheed and AI’s salaries come off the books.

    Nice video of Rip though.
