Flip can put his suits together a lot better than curry can. Dude is horrible! He had on a ghost-white suit and shiny brown poke-dot tie. I'm sure there are a box full of memos that coach never got regarding his color selections. By the way, Johnny Bread (decided to go with the lone "y" instead of "ie" ending) is a version of cornbread. I agree Mike, we should just be good little fans and see this thing all the way through.

LMAO!! I'm totally impressed with everything thats going on with the PISTONS right now. People we're hoping off the bandwagon so quick because things weren't going our way. But now it looks like things are shaping up and we're starting to gel. We need to just continue to give Curry a shot and see how things go. He seems to have very good basketball knowledge and respect from his player even A.I. When I look at him talking to the players on the sidelines I see he's not afraid to get in anyone's face. Something Flip couldn't do. Man WTF is a Johnnie Bread! LMAO!!

There is no longer a Ben Wallace to anchor the dominant defense that complimented that steady offense which was built around team work and sharing the ball. Let us not forget the Pistons are chasing the Celtics. Thats the team we are building up for. We are going to need players who can go and get points by themselves at times when the offense struggles Also, because of the Celtics strong defense, we'll need our established leaders to elevate their games even more. Just be glad we have guys who can give you forty when you need it. I think we're all tired of other teams superstars doing it to us.

But so far Stuckey's early career has been way better than Chauncey's early career. Detroit @ Denver is gonna be a good game for sure. John,

I like the fact that we are 13 and 3 this year with Stuckey Starting. That is way more impressive that a couple of 38 and 40 point scoring nights.

Does anyone else realized that Stuckey, in just 16 career starts, has scored more points in a game twice than Chauncey ever did in 696 career starts? Stuck’s scored 38 and 40 while Chauncey’s high was 37. Crazy. Great game by Stuckey again.

But I like it as Acker and Sharpe weren't going to get playing time anyways. Yeah that’s ironic since Sharpe was w/ the team to learn from them, rather than in the D-league.
