gotta win and hope the cavs beat the pacers.

Let's hope the guys can rebound from an off night and deliver a W here. We tend to match up well with the Magic, and you know Tobias will have extra incentive on his former homecourt.

4? games to go, magic number of 2? Yeah, big game. I'm boycotting the draft thread until this is over.

Average age for the starters for teams close to us.

ATL:29.6
Bull: 28.6
Boston: 25.8
Charlottle: 27
Indian: 26.6
Washington 27.7

Detroit: 23.8 with a 19 year old as the 6th man.

That is a little perspective. That to me is a very good sign and probably a reason for their bi polar type of play at times. I know some will look and understand others won't.


Didn't really know where to put this figured this is a good spot. Let's get this W tonight!

Dangerous team with no pressure on them.

[RipCity32]

Gotta limit Payton's dribble penetration. As well as hope Dre doesn't get murdered by Vucevic as usual.

[kurtis48239]

This game has me nervous,we should be fine if we come out with energy tho and move the ball.

[russkopp]

What a magical start...

[Spider156]

You gotta get that rebound in the Playoffs. That's the difference maker and they're going to learn that the hard way.

[RipCity32]

It's really funny to me how often Drummond gets blocked at the rim.

[russkopp]

And Marcus is missing layups...

[russkopp]

Lazy Dre is in the building.

[russkopp]

Are you KIDDING ME with this "defense"!!!!!

[joedumars1]

Up 9. Reading this seems we down

[RipCity32]

Lucky they missed a few makeable shots, but good start otherwise.

[russkopp]

Hahaha. I'm the only one here. Adios. Go Pistons

[Blkbrd671]

horrible transition D. took f* forever find a good stream

[joedumars1]

That 9 point lead disappeared fast.

[RipCity32]

2nd no call on an Gordon offensive interference lol
