Need to win thissssss.
God....looks like we also need to pass the damn ball. 30th in assists?? Pass the ball to Bullock 15 times, he'll knock down some shots lol

Stats suggest we're a better team and should win. But that defense needs to hold up so the offense can flow. I think it's gonna be a coaching duel. I just hope Nowitzki doesn't go off on us.

No SJ on this trip.

Key match up is Drummond and Pechulia. Can Drummond beat him up inside? Or will get get owned like Lopez and Gortat does to him? Pechulia isn't great on offense so I think Drummond has a good game tonight. Gotta make a mark in this game and win it. Every game counts!

He's actually pissing me off. His injury isn't that serious. It's a freaking sprain and it's been 2 weeks. What's going on? I can understand a knee sprain. But wtf

Do you think it's his decision? Do you want him to play and possible re injure whatever it is worse?

Don' t be an inconsiderate man-baby. If the kid could play and be useful he would. He's a worker.

Jodie Meeks (foot) said that there's a "good possibility" that he'll be able to return to the court during Detroit's current road trip.
per David Mayo

I hope this doesn't affect Bullock's minutes.. dude has been fantastic.

Probably effect Hilliard's minutes. Bullock is a SF

Hilliard is also listed as a SF, he's an inch shorter than Bullock.
When Stanley is eventually back, he will get a lot of minutes at SF/SG.. which takes away minutes from Bullock, so Bullock will have to find minutes at SG.
Hence why Meeks coming back could affect him.

Stan said today Bullock has earned a spot in the rotation and will be the 10th man even with Johnson/Meeks.

Excellent news! His shooting ability does a lot for our spacing.

2nd unit could be:

Blake
Meeks
Bullock
Johnson
Baynes

I'm excited about the Meeks/Bullock shooting potential at the 2/3. They would make a perfect compliment to Reggie/Dre/Harris.

We need this W! Dallas always seems to give us trouble with there veteran craftiness.
We win - ZaZa doesn't annoy Dre and/or get him in foul trouble. We hit shots.
We lose - ...the opposite

According to SVG he can't lift his arms above his shoulder without pain, going to be hard to shoot like that. Additionally our bench has stepped up in his absence, its more imperative that we get him back healthy and potentially ready for playoffs than force him to play and potentially hurt his development and may miss more time down the road due to re injury.

really hope we win this one, take back the 8th seed please

Lets go pistons
