I've noticed Billups and RIP jumping passing lanes a lot more lately. I think that has a lot to do with the zone defense because they know that there are always helpers behind them.Originally Posted by Matt

This could be an interesting thread if we could find a few volunteers to post at least one Pistons stat per day.
Prolly won't happen, but anyways...
PHX is #1 at +8.65, and only 13 teams are in positive numbers overall.
- 6th in point differential (+3.77)
HOU is #1 at .421
- 5th in FG% defense (.441%)
PHX is #1 at .398%
- 9th in 3pt FG% shooting (.360%)
NO/OKC is #1 at .327% (strangely enough, Boston is #2)
- 7th in 3pt FG% defense (.343%)
Dallas is #1 at .816%
- 6th in FT% (.783%)
PHX is #1 26.63, I bet we rise in this category with Webber on board
- 12th in assists per game (21.37)
Utah is #1 at 5.85
- 13th in rebound differential (+.70)
Clippers #1 at 6.12
- 4th in blocks per game (5.95)
- 1st in block differential (+2.14)
GSW #1 at 8.92
- 26th in steals per game (6.64)
Washington is #1 at +2.02
- 9th in steals differential (+.39)
As always, thoughts, analysis, feedback, etc is welcome.

Pistons are 0-100000000000000000000000000 when I bet alpacas on them and/or start the game thread.

Pistons have given up 86.6 ppg over the last 5 games, all wins.

Rip Hamilton is tied for 3rd in the NBA for flagrant fouls (2).
Jamaal Magliore has 5 and Lorenzen Wright has 4.

Since the start of the year, our opponents have taken more three point shots than we have.
5. But just to be safe, don't write off the Pistons.
Why?
Karma.
Jared from Livonia, Mich., wrote in recently to point out that the St. Louis Cardinals dominated baseball's 2005 regular season but won the World Series after a much rockier 2006. Knowing that I'm a little too busy with the NBA (and the Premiership) to keep track of these American sporting pursuits, Jared also reminded me that the Indianapolis Colts were a regular-season juggernaut in '05 but won the Super Bowl after looking more vulnerable in '06.
You can see where he's going with this.
The Pistons were 42-9 at the All-Star break a year ago, finished 64-18 and flamed out against Miami in the East playoffs. If they're anything like the Cards or Colts, this is actually their year.
