Extremely disappointed to see D Rose go down again...Was planning to see the matchup w Jennings but with Butler and Rose out, I think this should be an easy one for the Pistons.

Anyway, if someone is interested, I have a couple of tickets for Sec 102 (facing the visitors bench), 1st row (AA).

Tough blow for DRose. After all of that rehab and work to get back on the court, and he gets injured again...this was the same injury that Brandon Roy continuously had to deal with. The NBA isn't as exciting without a healthy DRose...

even without rose last year the bulls were still a very good team. It should be another rough game i think.

Nothing is an easy one for the Pistons.

Yes, to this point there is no reason to proclaim any game easy for the Pistons. The Bulls are no pushover even when Rose is out.

I'm sorry for Rose and Bull's fans though, as this injury has to be a huge disappointment for both. The game is diminished when great players are lost to injury.

Yeah these injuries are really annoying me. It's not only Rose. I can imagine Brandon Roy to be just as good as Rose two years ago. His injury (I think no cartilage) took him out of the league. Same to Greg Oden. I still think he'd be the best center in the league had he not been injured. I wonder where the Knicks would be with a healthy Stoudemire. It goes on and on. But that's just the way it is. It's part of the game. Makes you think! Lebron STILL has yet to be injured. I hope he doesn't simply because the game is so much more exciting with him in it. But it's interesting.

Yeah, think again. Bulls were still a good team without Rose all of last year. Even with two starters out, they're still more than capable of crushing the Pistons.

@sfballa13, can't pm you for some reason. Face value is $150/each, I'll ask $110 each - no food, but wait service during game, priority entry, 1st row behind vips and it's next to bulls tunnel and facing bulls bench. Great seats overall.

Ok, I guess I was trying to say the Pistons have a shot at it today. And IMO they should be the favorite here. I love the Bulls but I don't see them being as successful this year as they were last year. Why - no offense. No Marco Belinelli, no Nate - nobody who can create shots. They are not a deep team either. Sucks to say it but the Pistons are way more fun to watch and the more exciting team right now. It'll be a competitive game don't get me wrong, but if I had to choose, I'd pick the Pistons on Wed.

im thinking pistons lose by 15-19

I know a lot of bulls fans want to lose, it seems they want to tank...

this shouldn't be that close, to be honest. the bulls are on a four-game losing streak, their offense is horrible (cracked 90 points only once during the streak) and we're at home.


on another note, Drummond leads the nba so far with 40 dunks, howard and Jordan are second with 30.

I hope not, but i wouldn't be surprised if they bounce back. They've had a pretty rough run in the last few games, but they're a well drilled team. We'll need to be running smoothly and we can't afford to have Smith and Jennings chucking. If Jennings has a similar game to what he had against the Bucks, then we'll be in good shape.
