DET@MIA 3/22/13 

Post#1 » by isstainton » Thu Mar 21, 2013 2:59 pm

Big game!
would love to see an upset and end the streak............ but i fear with operation tank in full force we probably arent in great shape. That said, however, I was able to catch the end of the CLE vs MIA the other night and they have a habit of playing down to their competition. I know the general consesus is that we should lose out and get the best pick in the draft but, if you could pick just 1 game to win for the rest of the season wouldn't be this one?

heres hoping GO PISTONS

It seems every game for the last week or two the Heat have been starting very slowly. It is more like they are just going thru the motions until they have to turn it on. The question is, can the Pistons stop the Heat when they make that run. Well, there is nobody here that can slow down Wade and Lebron.

We might have had a shot to catch them sleeping, but the Cleveland game likely woke them up. I think we`ll lose by 20+ now.

lol...

Seriously though, we shouldn't be worrying about a comeback after a slow start from the Heat. It will likely be the opposite. We did beat them once without Wade, but we had Dre playing in that game and he was a force in the paint. Bynum also had a monster game.

I just don't see it. But I do hope we make it competitive.

Hopefully the nation is watching and hopefully Stuckey drops 40.

I'll be shocked if we keep the game within 15. With no Knight or Drummond, the lack of interior defense tells me that we will get blown out. I'd be shocked if the game was within ten points at half time.

I think you meant to say Wade drops 40 on Stuckey.

No Stuckey needs to shine. This is the only Pistons game most people will watch all year. If Stuckey plays well, fans will remember that and owners can use that to pretend they're acquiring stuckey and not to shed a contract.

I have no doubt Monroe will play well...If Stuckey, Bynum, and Charlie V also play well we'll win tomorrow...I have faith in my Pistons...

Only way to keep this game interesting might be to start a poll:

Will we lose by more or less than 25 points?
