Just giving you a hard time. I trust in Flip to win them all.

Un-needed right now... Rasheed isn't in any foul trouble, neither is Ben. Only one foul each. McDyess only has one as well. In a close game, we need those three if we can put them out there.

Darko may get a few minutes, but I can't see him getting in tonight much.

Meanwhile, Sacramenton has tied it up in terms of points in the paint, we were up 32-24 just a bit ago, now its 34-34 and they're back within five. The Pistons need to shut them down in the paint.

Maybe we do need a little bit of Darko, with his length he could play Brad Miller's face-up game very well and get a few momentum turning blocks... much in the way Prince plays against a SF shooter like Stojakovic.

their getting close

[casebeck22]

Bibby off the screen from Miller, good.

Billups to Tay to Ben. Travel.

Peja inside for two. 68-63 Pistons.

Billups to Rip who misses the layup. Bibby to Miller who misses. Billups boards and is fouled.

Billups up and in on the run. He has 16.

Miller to Peja who misses to Billups.

Pistons looking to to run to Rip vs Bibby to Prince for threeeeee!!

Prince has 21 points.

Timeout. Wow.

In Prince I trust. I've been calling him the King of Detroit for two years, baby!

21 on the night, he is definitely the hot hand with 15 points in the 3rd quarter, insane how alive he is right now! And all that right on the heels of my posts calling him our number two option after Rip, damn straight... that boy ain't going to make a liar out of me!

I love what Prince's hot hand has done to them. They're looking at him and he's using that to find open men inside, this time Ben for his second assist of the game. And Prince with another jumper on the fastbreak... day-umn. 9/10 on the night, nine in a row...

In the words of Midway's classic NBA JAM... HE'S ON FIRE!!!

Who'd have thunk we'd shoot better in the second half than the first? .545%, but the Kings aren't shooting bad either.
I love how every time the Kings get close to eating away our lead, we just regroup and widen the buffer again to 10+ points.

Tay is a beast right now. Rip needs to learn when his shot is not falling to pass, I'm pretty sure he'll be getting it more as the game wears on.

Flip needs to start singing game over

[ChrisWoj]

Make it ten. I don't know what else to say, he's just putting on a clinic on the offensive end and on the defensive end he's stopping Peja Stojakovic, 4/11 from the field for the man Flip Saunders calls the best shooter in the world. If that doesn't say a lot about Prince's defense... I don't know what does.

That kid is worth every cent his contract is paying him.
