Detroit Pistons Had Top 5 Combo

I love the Pistons, but I’m no basketball expert, and for sure I’m no statistician. So I am not about to explain the Lenovo +/- Stat. But what it stands for is how the points scored go up or down depending on different players being on the court or on the bench. The Lenovo Stat can rate an individual player, or combos of 2, 3, 4, or 5.

Last year, it turns out, the individual with the highest rating was Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat, at +127. The 2s, 3s, and 4s were all groups of Dallas Mavericks, and all the groups included Dirk Nowitzki and Josh Howard. But the most effective combination of five at +51 was this lineup of Detroit Pistons: Tayshaun Prince, Antonio McDyess, Chauncey Billups, Richard Hamilton, and Ben Wallace.

Losing Ben to the Chicago Bulls will be tough. But we’ve proved we know how teamwork works.

Holy S**t!!

They did it! The Tigers are in the World Series!! Holy cow!

Way to go, guys. We Michiganders can use this happy news. Best of luck to ya! The whole town's rooting for you.

skipping work to do the right thing

Open practive tomorrow starts at 10:30 at the Palace at Auburn Hills, one of my favorite venues. I should prolly go to work, but meh, its open practice. Rumor has it automotion will be there as well, which is nevAr a bad thing... But its not just about that, I want to see how Mohammed is moving as well as Richard Hamilton and Ronald Murray. I am always surprised by how many people show up, the mood is always very positive and people love to talk about the team (armchair coaches unite!).

up and coming

During the upcoming season, the Pistons will be looking for more offense at center, and they will look to Nazr Mohammed to be that improvement. Despite comparisons with Ben Wallace, Mohammed is a different player and is expected to fill in an important gap left gaping last season – scoring in the post. Mohammed is also a strong rebounder, which will undoubtedly help the Pistons offensively. Last season was a heartbreaker, and left a void in the hearts of fans that the Pistons will now try to fill, with Mohammed’s help.
