Too much Kobe

[box score] I need some more coffee.  These late games kick my butt.  I wish the Pistons could have gotten back to their winning ways, but overall I wasn’t disappointed with their play. Not to take anything away from the Pistons, they played well, they just had the unfortunate...

I know it’s great to see the rooks contributing…

…but I’d sure love to see Rip in the mix.  I guess this very well done highlight package will have to suffice.

Pistons get a Sunday win

The combination of the game being a 1 o’clock Sunday game and me being under the weather does not lend itself well to my traditional recap styling. What I’ll say is that with Charlie V starting to get going it’s opening up different looks on the offensive end. The...

Tayshaun out indefinitely

Mcdonalds_all_american_6c66
Just found out on Twitter that Tayshaun Prince will be out indefinitely with a small rupture of a disc in his lower back.  I’m no doctor, nor have a suffered a similar injury but disc rupture just doesn’t sound like something you can “walk off” Anyone clamoring...

Big first quarter carries Magic over Pistons

[det 103 / ORL 110] The Orlando Magic used a 40-23 opening quarter to exact a measure of revenge from 3 nights prior when the Pistons handed them their first loss of the season. The Magic came out last night in that first quarter and looked like a team that was sick of having a Piston [...]

You’re better than that Dwight

Stay away from Dwight Howard unless you want to get Hulk smashed. (language) Instead of chalking it up to being “one of those nights” Dwight has expressed his frustration via his official website: I was on the floor for 16 minutes and fouled out!!! Let me say that again...

Brandon Jennings’ debut was good, but I’ll take Zeke’s any day

As a fan who’s an absolute geek for team history I love these classic video’s Pistons.com has been putting out.  The latest one focuses on my all-time favorite, Isiah Thomas’, first pro game on 10/30/81 against Bob Lanier and the Milwaukee Bucks. (That move Zeke...

The best Jason Maxiell story you probably haven’t heard

Picimg_bullspistons_704c
I, as well as many of you, read the blurb over the summer about Jason Maxiell getting hitched to his longtime fiance Brandi.  What I never remember reading about was how Brandi was an ovarian cancer survivor and that Jason helped her beat the disease. Remember a couple of years ago...

That’s why we need to hang on to Hamilton

The Pistons need a scoring big.  Tayshaun can, theoretically, score down low but we all know what we can expect when we expect Tay to be a scorer.  Charlie Villanueva, like Rasheed, seems to be pretty enamored with that three point arc. Since we don’t have “that guy&...

Pistons stall in home opener

Did you here?  They cannot serve beer at  the Palace anymore!  Yeah, because they lost the opener.  Yuck, yuck, yuck. (Thunder 91 / Pistons 83) It wasn’t a great showing by the Pistons last night, but don’t jump off the bandwagon just yet.  As I’m sure you&...

TGI(YT)F – BG is 20/20

If this isn’t trade conspiracy material than I don’t know what is. Dr. Rahmani has been Rip’s gig forever.  Tayshaun better watch out, Gordo might just know a thing or two about blocking unwanted shots… (H/T: PistonPost)

Pistons click in opener

Gordon
The Memphis Grizzlies made it a contest through the first quarter but after that the Pistons showed off their high-powered backcourt to run away with a 96-74 opening night win. [Box score] Ben Gordon and Rip Hamilton showed what a tandem they could be starting in the second quarter...
