Pistons vs. 'Zards 7:30 PM EST This is the birthday game, Dumars4Ever, MotownPride and I all share 11/1 as a birthday. Radio: WDFN 1130 AM TV: NBATV, FSN HD Detroit Chat: Yes Opponent blog: THE WIZZNUTZZ
Nice touch with the opponents blog. It would be cool to find out if there is a blog for each of our opponents and maybe you could invite the opponents to our chat and get a little back and forth going during the games. Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to participate as I don't type fast and by the time I typed what I wanted to say; 2 other plays would have taken place.
One thing has become pretty clear this game. When Amir sits down, our defense goes to hell. I like Curry letting him play through the fouls. With more experience, he'll adjust. Hopefully these games stay far and few in between. Also are we not providing help defense on purpose b/c that's what it looks like ??

This game was insanely fun to watch. I am really loving the team this year. Curry uses some interesting lineups sometimes, he seems like he'll be pretty flexible. Can't wait to see how we do on the road. Walter Hermann is AWESOME.
Good to see MC ride the hot hand. Last year Walter takes a seat with 6 minutes left in favor of McDyess and I think the outcome is different.
Kwame had a post-game comment that I thought was interesting. He said the coaches really let the guys bang in practice. He thinks this is why Stuckey and Amir get lots of fouls since they don't know how to dial it back in the games.
