I read that there is video of Bynum stuffing one down on Wade but Adidas bought it and made everyone pretend it doesn't exist. I read it on Gilbert's blog.

Looks like Bynum had a better preseason game 1 than Stuckey...
DO WE HAVE TO START THIS ALREADY? :)Quote:

You'd never know it from the statline, but Stuckey had a +13 and Bynum a -13 for +/-. Hmmmm...
Awesome! Can we do that while having Tay run the point?Quote:
Dalton (Manistee, Mich.): Do you think there is a chance Will Bynum is the starter at point guard before the end of the year?
Langlois: Dalton, I picked your question at random from a slew of similar questions that poured in after Monday night’s preseason opener, when Bynum probably was the standout for the Pistons, and more that have come in since then. And the answer is … not unless Rodney Stuckey’s career takes a turn nobody with the Pistons envisions. Bynum is perfectly suited to coming off the bench, where his size isn’t as much of an issue and he can play with full-bore intensity for six- or seven-minute spurts. I know many Pistons fans think it would be ideal if Bynum paired up with Rip Hamilton in the backcourt and Stuckey, who was terrific in Wednesday’s win over Milwaukee, played more alongside Ben Gordon so Stuckey could guard shooting guards with too much size for Gordon, but John Kuester is taking the approach that he’s going to let the other team worry more about matching up with the guard combinations he concocts and let the chips fall where they may. If there are situations where the Pistons get hurt with an undersized Bynum-Gordon backcourt, he can always adjust as needed. It also was intriguing Wednesday to see Kuester go with Gordon-Bynum-Stuckey together to start the fourth quarter – a combination he said he envisions using during the regular season at times, as well.

Sounds gimmiky to me.
That's right up Gla's alley.
I could see it being pretty good for small stretches in a game. A good distributor and scorer with 2 good scorers. Stuckey is kinda bigger for a guard, so it's not as much of a small-ball stretch as some teams run with at "small forward". Run it out there with 2 of our bigger guys in the middle, Big Ben and someone... I think it has potential.Quote:

If Stuck, Gordon and Rip can hit their outside shots (which doesn't seem to be outside the realm of possibilities) it could be a good thing. Especially cuz we could just use stiffs underneath. We wouldn't need extremely athletic bigs type of thing.
Also, if I get a shot at using gimmiky, I'm doing it.
