Just heard on the radio that the Pistons/Bucks game is being shown at 7:30 tonight on tape delay. What is the point of scheduling afternoon games when they can't be televised because of ABC. How stupid is that.

Hope that your team will be the game of the week and get exposure.

Pointless if you're not playing against the Suns, Kobe's, Lebron's, or Heat.

no sheed, no rip, no problem.

121-92 ass-beating. Max sets career highs in points, rebounds and blocks against Milwaukee's midget lineup.

Is that so? He looks good so far. Looks like I'll have to update the wikipedia :)

Delfino had a dunk on Skinner that was just plain sick.

Skinner was so disoriented, he threw the inbounds pass right to Lindsey Hunter for another two points.

I'm glad Rip's getting a rest. I hope he really doesn't have the flu.

Lindsey and Webber have had the flu all week, so it's likely Rip does have it too.

man, this is only the 3rd or 4th game this year i've been unable to see. and i'm pissed about it.

anybody explain to me why billups and prince played 37 and 38 minutes in a huge blowout like this, considering we're trying to cut their minutes back as we wind down the season? PLUS we have a back to back, tomorrow night!

WTF is saunders doing? would it really have killed us to play delfino and hunter another 10 minutes each, or something like that? *rolleyes*

Game wasn't really over until there was 8 minutes left.

Not to mention, they were missing 2 starters already, and Webber was too sick to stay in the game in the 2nd quarter, leaving the team very thin.

Hunter was the only PG left on the bench, and he had the flu too.

The only thing better than George Blaha, is taped delayed George Blaha.

Is it just me, or does no one else remember any tape delays the past 5years?


Is this a new thing? It pisses me off, when I have everything prepped, people over ready to rock, and the games not on.

Makes me want to kill something.

I don't recall any tape delay games recently but maybe its because we were the ones playing on national tv and now we aren't.

We used to play these late season Sunday games at 6 pm, and as far as I can remember, they were televised live.

Yeah but the difference is that these tape delayed games start at 3:30. The rule is that ABC will be the only game broadcasting at their time slot so thats why we aren't live.

saw the highlights- delfino's throwdown was wicked.

so was prince's. not to mention his block on charlie bell!

i honestly think we should rotate resting starters for the last few games. rip needs a couple of games, so does prince.

Prince's block was on Noel, not Bell.

The magic number to clinch the east is 10. Get that done and I think we'll see some guys resting.

13 games left. 8 should be cake-walks.

13 games left. 8 should be cake-walks.

53-55 wins. That's a good year.
Won the championship with that kind of record.
Should be enough to lock up the 1st seed and hold off the Cavs.
Won't have to face them until the ECF. Which they probably won't make .


Nm, I have no idea how the NBA does the seeds anymore.

Anyone know where I can see highlights of the game? Especially defino's dunk?

Pistons.com would probably be a good bet.
