Game Info

[FreshPrince22]

4th game in 5 nights.

Pacers with 25 offensive boards.

Scheduling loss. The only thing that hurts is the standings.

[ABDENOUR POWER]

It was the 4th game in 5 days and the 5th in 7 for the Pistons. The fresh Pacers just beat the Pistons to all the loose balls tonight.

Edit: Fresh Prince you beat me to it.

[ducks]

Rebounding Is Why Pistons Last
And 4 Game In 5 Nights

[TDMVPDPOY]

shame on them hahahha another one bites the dusts

[ace3g]

funny thing is the pistons still have not played as many games as the spurs have

[JamStone]

I'm sorry. Explain why it's funny that the Spurs have played 47 games in the regular season and the Pistons have played 46 games in the regular season. Why is that a funny thing? I don't get it.

[mavsfan1000]

Pistons coming back to earth. Dallas and San Antonio are only 3 games behind them now.

[1Parker1]

:lol I think Spurs have only played 1 more game then the Pistons. Which really isn't a big deal...

As I mentioned before, I expect the Pistons to go on another 12 game winning streak. 70 wins is still possible.

[FreshPrince22]

Pistons coming back to earth. Dallas and San Antonio are only 3 games behind them now.
When will those Mavs come back to earth is the question. :lol

[TxJudsonRocketTx]

People make too much of a deal out of one Piston loss. I can see if you're cheering because we gain on them in the standings, but if youre just going wild over them not breaking 70 then thats kinda gay.

[HB22inSA]

Spurs may only be 3 games back and seemingly gaining momentum on their road trip, but I don't think the Spurs will catch Detroit.

Spurs have had cake so far in the first 3 games, and barely scraped by, and now the toughest part of the roadie is coming up.

They'll lose at least 2 games (I'm thinking 3), and be right back to 4 or 5 games behind Detroit.

I also don't see the Spurs on top of the Division after the road trip either. Dallas is playing too well and they have a scheduling break as well.

[SoCalSpursFan]

:lol :blah :elephant :king

[Brutalis]

Excuses, excuses.

[ALVAREZ6]

Props to the Pacers!

[lilmads]

Any loss from the Pistons brings Spurs closer to them. :lol :spin :elephant :angel :princess :drunk :smokin

[mavsfan1000]

The spurs should be concerned with the mavs. Looking ahead to the pistons is a mistake.

[Brutalis]

The spurs should be concerned with the mavs. Looking ahead to the pistons is a mistake.
Trust me. No Spur is looking ahead to Detroit. The don't know 'times and trials' while coasting through a heathy roster. Dallas and SA are looking right at eachother and just waiting to pounce.

[himat]

The spurs should be concerned with the mavs. Looking ahead to the pistons is a mistake.

spur fans might look forward to the pistons, but i don't think the players are.

[mavsfan1000]

Well that is a good point. Just hope that the overconfidence of the fans doesn't happen to the players on the spurs as well.

I'm sorry. Explain why it's funny that the Spurs have played 47 games in the regular season and the Pistons have played 46 games in the regular season. Why is that a funny thing? I don't get it.

His comments were in answer to the Piston fan saying the Pacer loss was a scheduling loss. Since the Spurs have been off almost a week and have still played more game they must have had more chances for scheduling losses earlier.

In the end, everything balances out. Play ball!

[5ToolMan]

The spurs should be concerned with the mavs. Looking ahead to the pistons is a mistake.

The Spurs are not concerned with the Pistons or the Mavs. But it has nothing with taking either lightly. As a Champion, the Spurs understand it is all about them being the best they can be. The Spurs also are very aware of playing the playoffs ... one series ... on game ... one play ... at a time.
