Should the Detroit Pistons Start Rodney Stuckey at PG?
See this is a problem alot. Sheed not playing out of the post. He can dominate down there but he chooses not to do it. Tayshaun didn’t play well in Game 3 but I think Chauncey was worst. I think overall we played better without Chauncey on the floor. If he can’t be aggressive he is holding us back right now.
We were -25 when Chauncey was on the court. (We only lost by 14 points) He was tentative and scared so he doesn’t need to start right now.
We were +3 when Rodney Stuckey was on the floor. (We lost by 14 points) Also our defense is better with Stuckey on the floor!
Chauncey Billups has already said he wont be 100% for the playoffs. He doesnt even have full confidence in himself so why should we as Pistons fan. I don’t right now and you shouldn’t either. My only problem with the Pistons is when they don’t try. Game 1 we tried and we lost and thats fine. Game 2 we tried and won and thats great. Game 3 we played about half a game and lost by 14 and thats not ok.
I would rather start Rodney Stuckey, Lindsey Hunter, Rip Hamilton, Tayshaun Prince and Antonio McDyess right now because they try their best, game in and game out.
This wishy washy play is tiring and I’m out.

I agree with you. Rodney Stuckey’s been playing with great heart, and has been doing well.
I cringed at Game 3. At least the first half. How did we let a 13-0 run get erased, just like that? Cassell and Posey getting open 3’s?
I agree with you that those five are playing their best. Was Lindsey on the floor when those threes were hit, I wonder? Because he’s usually all over the ball handler when he’s guarding him.

Are you guys just counting this series cause Tayshaun was amazing the first 2. You still have to give him some props
