If the Pistons lose this one because Sheed loses the ball out of bounds with just seconds remaining, I would consider that a good omen.

get out to a big lead quick, then let Rip rest. i've got full confidence in Delk's scoring to help relieve Rip's. i think we can count on 15 points or so from Delk, if he plays a decent amount of minutes.

Pistons 99-77

Awesome! If we lose that way...I'm down.

I think the Pistons romp 102-85. I think we may drop game 3 though and I hope Rip's ankle injury doesn't linger.

Detroit has lost three straight Game 2s and four of its last five, dating to the 2004 NBA Finals. Before that stretch, the Pistons lost to Milwaukee two years ago in the second game of their first-round series.

What the Pistons did in five games against Milwaukee to start their run to the 2004 title is insignificant at this point, but it's at least interesting to look at how Redd did in the first two games back then and on Sunday.

Redd was held to 11 points in Game 1 this year and the same total in the first game of the 2004 playoffs. The star guard bounced back two years ago with a playoff career-high 26 points to lead the Bucks to a series-tying victory against Detroit.
Interesting factoid.

I'll be watching this one live from the art room at river side.

I'll say something like 105ish to 87ish.

So the artroom at Riverside gets this game but no one in Australia can watch it?

That's bullshit.

That's right boys and girls: Even if I paid to have (what you call) cable I couldn't see this game.

2 NBA games per week is all we get. And we ain't getting this one!

Fuck the NBA and the shitty fucking TV networks in Oz.

Maybe kevin the lad has a hookup for you?

Don't they have satellite TV in Aussieland? Couldn't you get the NBA package that way?

Is the insane lag fixed?

Is the insane lag fixed?

it seemed to be a server side issue on our host's end. nothing we can really do about it. please LMK if things are better/worse tonight.

Cram it, Evans haters.

Jamaal Magloire: This dude once made an All-Star team?

Either injuries reduced him to nothing or he was always a stiff just looked good on a bad team. Shit even Lee nailon looked like a stud on NO.

He didnt get injured, he just got out of shape and lazy.

He didnt get injured, he just got out of shape and lazy.

I believe he was injured two years ago. I can't recall for what but I remember because he was on my fantasy team. It was a thumb injury or something but he was out a good many games.

Kevin couldn't hook me up - NO ONE in Oz can see this game.

We can't get the "NBA package" or "League Pass" or any of that shit.

OK, I might be able to buy a dish and get it, but who the fuck has the money for that?

Bottom Line: The NBA is so fucking concerned about coverage in China and the rest of Asia but we can't get more than 2 playoff games a week?

Bullshit! I'm hoping Bogut becomes the next Hakeem - at least then we might get better league coverage.

www.streamtvnow.com

they stream almost every playoff game, costs about 5$ a month, with a high speed connection it might be worth it for the next 2 months

I should get off my ass and get broadband

You should. You'll never ever regret it.

that Rip to Ben alley-oop was a thing of beauty....and it made sportscenter.

i'll never get tired of seeing that little play.

Especially last night. Ben not only slammed the shit out of the ball,
that was loud as hell and he screamed at the world. I loved it.
We had to rewind 3 times and then turn the surround way up!

AAAAHHHH!!!

That was fucking sweet. Anyone got a video? Anyone? Anywhere?

bump, lol
