The Piston's have struggled with running teams this season...our only hope to win this game is to run. Cut Parker, Barry and Manu loose....If we try a slowdown half court game the Piston's will destroy us.

Manu aint gonna get many minutes today, so cutting loose Parker and Barry is an option.,


But barry wide open against a good D team = turnovers, not good.

Whatever...Barry's defensive liablities get overblown...he may be a poor defender by Spurs standards but he's not that bad by NBA standards...

Uh, I said, the PISTON's D, against Barry's wildness is not a good combo, read AJ Jr.

Barry isn't wild...that stupid to say that TPark.

We damn sure aren't going to win a defensive struggle with this team and no Duncan...forget about it.

Only way we can win this game is with offense.

See, now we are running the offense inside out through Mass and Rasho and the Pisons are eating our lunch...why play Parker and Beno together if we are going to do this crap inside out game against one of the best interior defensive teams in the NBA.

Agree 100%. The Pistons are a brilliant half-court defensive team - they can shut down anyone in that area. However, when teams play transition with them, they are extremely easy to beat. Case in point - 2 years ago Jason Kidd and the Nets beat them easily, and last year the Nets would have beat the Pistons as well if Kidd was completely healthy. The Pistons just can't defend against it.

Yeah...the Pistons weakness is that they are slow(Tashaun Prince excluded).
