With Ben Gordon back in the mix, Lawrence Frank has wider latitude to mix and match in striking a balance of offense and defense in both his starters and second unit, Keith Langlois writes for True Blue Pistons.

Greg Monroe had 20 points and 12 rebounds and the Detroit Pistons won their season-high third straight game with a 99-92 victory over the New Jersey Nets on Wednesday night. Jonas Jerebko added 16 points and Tayshaun Prince had 15 as the Pistons snapped a seven-game road losing streak. Ben Gordon, playing for the first time in 11 games, added 14 points for Detroit, which almost blew an 18-point...

Knight, who suffered a broken nose in Saturday's victory over the New Orleans Hornets, took part in this morning's shootaround for tonight's game against the New Jersey Nets and should start. Guards Ben Gordon (left shoulder) and Will Bynum (foot) also participated and should be available tonight.

Guards Ben Gordon (left shoulder) and Will Bynum (foot) practiced today, but Pistons coach Lawrence Frank said he would have a better idea of their availability after Wednesday morning's shootaround.

Brandon Knight, Ben Gordon and Will Bynum all might play at New Jersey on Wednesday - but none of them are sure to be available, which is why Lawrence Frank has to stay ever-flexible in his first season as Pistons coach, Keith Langlois writes for True Blue Pistons.

The New Jersey Nets and Detroit Pistons have gone in opposite directions since they met last Wednesday. The Pistons have won consecutive games for the first time in a month while the Nets have lost three in a row heading into Wednesday night's opener of a home-and-home set at the Prudential Center. New Jersey (8-18) won 99-96 at home over Detroit (6-20) last Wednesday. The...

Rookie point guard Brandon Knight might have been off from practice Monday tending to the broken nose he suffered Saturday night, but his play of late has definitely been noticed. Ben Gordon returned to practice after missing time with a left shoulder injury and said he noticed how well Knight was playing with Rodney Stuckey before Knight's mishap.

Trying to win back-to-back games for the second time this season, and minus Ben Gordon (shoulder), Will Bynum (left foot) and Charlie Villanueva, the Pistons continued to suffer from the injury bug when rookie point guard Brandon Knight went down at about the 7-minute mark of the first quarter after receiving a blow to the face and suffered a broken nose in the team's 89-87 victory...

While the New Orleans Hornets have been able to hang tough through three quarters of play, they've been plagued by an inability to get things going over the final 12 minutes. The Detroit Pistons have experienced fourth-quarter woes of their own - and despite almost letting another win slip away - managed to hold off their last opponent. Hoping to avoid a 14th loss in 15 games...

Earlier today I mentioned that if Kahn's recent interview with Strib author Tom Powers was merely meant to temper expectations, and if the T-Wolves do indeed make a move at the deadline to acquire an impact perimeter scorer, then I might have to reevaluate my opinion of his performance as GM. (You can read the article HERE.) One of the great truths of business, and of life,...

With Will Bynum and Ben Gordon both missing the last nine games, Walker D. Russell Jr. got thrown into the fire quickly. He's been a Piston for two weeks now and Lawrence Frank eyes light up when he talks about him, Keith Langlois writes for True Blue Pistons.

Could this be a prelude to the Finals? With the excellerated season we decided to take a minute and do a update on the power rankings in the NBA as we see it. Of course it is still early but before you know it the All-Star weekend will be here and the playoffs will be right around the corner. Like we did with the NFL we will rank the top 5 teams and the bottom 5 and everything in...

Life in the NBA isn't easy for anyone, especially a rookie on a terrible team. At least he has Ben Gordon's jersey number though.

The SPL side dominated throughout but were thwarted by brilliant Ayr keeper Kevin Cuthbert who made great saves in the second half from Gary Harkins, Shiels, Manuel Pascali and Garry Hay. However, Cuthbert's stubborn resistance was broken in the 109th minute when Shiels, who had recovered from illness to play, drove low into the corner to set up a final appearance against either...

No Tayshaun Prince, no Ben Gordon, no Will Bynum and no Charlie Villanueva. The shorthanded Pistons continue to lose without a full complement of players.

Detroit Pistons guard Ben Gordon is expected to miss a fourth straight game Friday against the Detroit Pistons. Gordon has been listed as doubtful for the game due to an ailing shoulder. He has not played since Jan. 20 against Memphis. Gordon is averaging 14.3 points for the season.

The 4-14 Pistons are at home to host the 12-5 Miami Heat at the Palace of Auburn Hills.

The Pistons outrebounded the Grizzlies 38-27 last Friday Night, but, they didn’t play any D as the Grizzlies shot 57.4% from the floor.

Tayshaun Prince (14 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assists and 1 steal) and Greg Monroe (10 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 1 blocked...

The Pistons were outrebounded 42-35 and outplayed last Tuesday by the Rockets. Tayshaun Prince (20 points, 3 rebounds and 2 steals) and Ben Gordon (18 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocked shots) led the way for the Pistons in this game.

Andrew Barrowman opened the scoring with five minutes remaining in the first half and Joe Cardle doubled the visitors' lead on the hour mark. With three minutes remaining Liam Buchanan added a third to ensure Dunfermline's first ever Scottish Premier League victory at Rugby Park. After a drab opening to the match, Dunfermline had a good opportunity to break the deadlock...

When Ben Gordon and Will Bynum get back from injury, Lawrence Frank will again have plenty of backcourt options. For the time being, the Rodney Stuckey-Brandon Knight pairing gave clear signs in Saturday's win over Portland of what the future could hold, Keith Langlois writes for True Blue Pistons.

The Oklahoma City Thunder got back to their defensive ways following a loss to the league's worst team. That could be bad news for the low-scoring Detroit Pistons. The Western Conference-leading Thunder go for their sixth consecutive victory in this series on Monday night when the Pistons try to end a 14-game road losing streak to West opponents. Coming off a 105-102 loss...

Detroit guard Ben Gordon has been scratched from the lineup for Saturday night's game with a sore shoulder. Gordon has started 15 games this season, averaging 14.3 points. He was replaced in the starting lineup against Portland by Rodney Stuckey, who missed Friday night's loss to Memphis with a groin injury.
