Hamilton speaks out against the bench

Pistons.com Detroit v. New Orleans Quote of the Day:

Rip Hamilton…

On Playing Most of the Game Without Allen Iverson: “The way we’ve have been starting, is the way [head coach Michael Curry] wants. I’ve said I’m happy to come off the bench as long as we’re winning. But we’re losing. We’re now 4-12 with me coming off the bench. Something’s got to give. I’m all for doing whatever it takes for the team, but coming off the bench with us not winning, something’s got to change.”

(Thanks to Matt from the AU for all the great pics and the link.)

*Other Pistons Points to ponder…

 Stuckey will continue to start. I repeat he will continue to start.  (SIGH…)  Coach Curry says he’s not considering sending Stuckey to the bench.  Rip is obviously not happy coming off the bench and losing.  I know that Iverson is hurt right now with his back injury but could a starting lineup change be on the way?

Are the Pistons finally going take the reins away from Iverson?

Good news for the Orlando game: the NBA rescinded two of ‘Sheed’s techs.

He’s no longer suspended!


John February 26th at 4:53 pm

HAHA is that really good news Ryan? LOL


Mike Watson February 26th at 7:25 pm

Man this sucks thats now 4 shows in a row i’ve missed!


John February 26th at 8:06 pm

MIKE!!!! http://www.pistonscast.com/episodes.php Just click on a show on that page and it will live stream! That’s all you have to do. Come on man, “BOSS UP AND GET THIS MONEY”! (DETROIT PHRASE)


Ryan February 26th at 11:37 pm

Boss up and get this money?

Never heard of that.

Maybe I’ll try saying that to people tomorrow. At random.

:-)

OF COURSE it’s a good thing, John! Haha. ‘Sheed plays excellent D against D Howard.

Sheed will hold Howard to 6 points in the game. 1 for 7 field goals, 5 for 15 free throws.

But it won’t matter, because Hedo Turkoglu will have a 45 point game, going 15 for 17 from downtown.


Ryan February 26th at 11:38 pm

I meant 4 for 15 free throws. :-)


John February 27th at 1:41 am

HAHA Ok Ryan. This is how you use Boss Up and Get this Money. Say your buddy is acting scared to do something. You simply tell him “Boss Up” or “Boss Up and get this money” its that simple. HAHA

Let me know how your “Bossing Up” experience goes.


Pistonscast · AI benched… for the Rest of the Season! February 27th at 7:44 pm

[...] John W. Davis here.  The Pistons have finally made the shake-up that they desperately needed.  It’s not just because of his ailing back but Allen “AI” Iverson is going to the bench for good!  That’s right, for the rest of the season.  I can say I saw this coming… AH HA! [...]
