Detroit Pistons at Indiana Pacers Friday March 19 7:00 pm Local TV: FS Detroit Nat'l TV: Radio: 950 WWJ
Him and Ben are both back. Both will be eased back into their roles, coming off the bench in their first games back.
I don't know. Lost 8 out of the last 10 and are tied for the 6th seed. Top 5 is probably not going to happen. Unless they had another 13 game losing streak. Schedule is not easy though.
I guess DaJuan "DaBron Stopper" Summers and Daye are done playing 5+ min in any of the remaining games unless someone else gets injured.
This game maybe a 'tanking' game for both teams. Question is, which teams need it more (tanking). Pistons is 23-46 and Pacers is 22-46. May wanna lose this. Even if we are tied in records at the end of the season, we are seeded higher in terms of draft pick. We are 0-2 against them this season, another advantage. Both teams may end up shooting 30% and below in FG, may also end having most turnovers in NBA history (what's the record anyway). Maybe a very ugly game...
It doesn't work like that, there's no tiebreaker for teams that are tied in record. They simply split the ping pong balls.
I do find it interesting that they are going to bring Ben and Rodney back off the bench, when Prince and Hamilton came back (with much longer periods of absence) right away and started. Maybe it's because back then they still felt they had a chance of getting into the playoffs.
Pistons down by 17 in the first. Pacers on pace to score 120+, the Pistons on pace to score less than 70. This is pretty much unwatchable so far.
It is practically halftime and two my guys in noob playoffs tay and rip - have scored whopping 0 points.
Pistons must think he is not playing either as he is scoring at will as if he was invisible to the Piston defenders >>>21 pts now 8 mins left in the third and the Pacers up 20......yep with out him, this game would be a neck to neck taynk to the end.
