Should be a good game.

i dont think it really matters

I think so. It's at home and Detroit is not a good team at all. I think BK was a terrible, terrible pick, and I was really down on him prior to last years draft. I give Kemba grief about his pg skills, but BK literally has zero court vision or pg abilities.

This will be a nice night to play a three-guard backcourt for a while (no, not with Ben Gordon, that's never a good thing). I assume they're either starting Singler or Bad Porn at the 3, and Hendo's got the upper hand in that matchup, as does MKG with any of their 4s (Villaneuva, Jerebko, or Maxiell)


With those lineups, I strongly favor us in four of the five positions:
Sessions>Calderon
Walker>Knight
Henderson>>>>>>Maggs/Singler
MKG>whoever they play at 4
our bigs <<<<<< Monroe.

Of course tonight, Dunlap will do what we should have been doing all along and playing normal lineups, not small ball, on a night where small-ball will help us.

Very arguable. Calderon may actually be worse than DJ Augustin defensively.

I saw where a few people on the Piston board called Calderon elite the other day.

Sessions is probably under-appreciated on our board.
Humble yourself.

Pistons fans are delusional on RealGM but I'll give Calderon some credit. He's like the NBA's version of Tony Romo :lol:

Agreed. Good sixth man who averages 15 a game. Can't ask for much more than that.

But I hate watching the style of basketball that he plays. That said it is effective.

Dell Curry was NBA sixth man one year if I remember correctly.

Yeah. I think I recall a trivia answer where he was the last player in the NBA or one of the last to lead his team in scoring coming off the bench all 82 games. I thought Lou Williams led his team in scoring last year but I think he started a few games.
