If you go to Pistons.com, and when the game calenders load in, you can click on Listen Live and hear Mak Champion. He's so much better than the last announcer against Miami (Matt Derry I think). He gives a pretty good feel of the game.
After 1st qtr, Pistons shooting 60% , Milw 38%. Everyone is contributing at a high level, Tay is brick city, but seeing as how Rich Jeff hasn't done much, we'll let it slide, No Sheed in the paint offensively - but while in he was murder on the defensive glass, may have something to do with playiong alongside Amir.
