Howard is a load. I'm a big Amir fan and all, but no way can Amir guard DHo. Sheed can do an OK job, but he'll rack up fouls too. This is a Shaq type exception.
I can live with that, but if Amir doesn't get minutes against Tony Battie, and that strange looking tall guy with the funny name and their bench line-up, then i'll be cursing at Curry (quietly so my next door neighbors don't think i'm nuts)
Since i have the week off i am gonna try to watch the game (if i can find a descent feed). It will be 01:30 at night overhere when the game starts, so Pistons better play well enough to keep me awake.
Richard Hamilton out for tonight's showdown against Orlando | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press Left groin injury keeps Richard Hamilton out, Amir Johnson to make second straight start - Detroit Pistons Basketball: News, Blogs, Photos, Audio, Schedule & Stats - MLive.com RIP is officially out
Oh man, I remember how Chauncey would eat Nelson up everytime. This game is a big test for us, and we can send out a strong message if we do beat the magic.
Can't complain about that, but this is about the only team that I wouldn't recommend it. I'll assume that Sheed will be guarding Howard and will be leaving the game after about 5 minutes with a T.
He'll get 2 fouls in the first 3 minutes against DHo & Shard and Curry will put in Kwame like he should have to start the game.
He got 3 LOL, but 2 were not his fault. We really miss Rip's shooting out there. AI needs to man up on Jameer. He's getting blown by. KB should be OK out there expect we lose speed to recover. I take it back AI; you're doing much better now. And according to the ORL board Amir was dominating the game. They all were like WTF is that?
small ball aint good. Better D last few games. 76 against bucks, 82 today against orlando..defense much better. great win..
I hope that The Grieving Groin, formerly known as The Grieving Rip Hamilton is out long enough so MC forgets what small ball means. ( and The Grieving Groin is in my fantasy team, but I'm ready for this sacrifice)
