Van Gundy's lifestyle keeps flu at bay

The Pistons coaching staff remained depleted during practice. Assistant head coach Bob Beyer and fellow assistants Malik Allen, Rex Walters and Charles Klask missed Thursday's game while recovering from the flu. They were all absent once again on Friday. Another assistant, Tim Hardaway Sr., was out of town attending a funeral.

Van Gundy has managed to avoid getting sick, which he attributed jokingly to his "lifestyle choices."

"I've banged so many chicks, gotten so much bad stuff in my body that the flu would come and not notice the difference," he said. "I think that's the key."
