Bucks play New Orleans.  So hello 6th seed.

The "continued progression of court work" means that he's not yet cleared for full 5-on-5 play and likely that's several weeks away. I still don't expect to see him this year.

He won't be back this year unless the Pistons go very deep in the playoffs but it's still a good sign of progress that he's cleared this soon.

On another note, the Western Conference race is bonkers. Before the games last night, 5 teams were tied with the same exact record. There are going to be two championship contenders dropped to the 7-8 seed. The west continues to be the far better conference for what feels like the last 20 years.

Win the next 3 and we're the #5 seed. I think.

Man, the defense.  Precious looking like an all nba player out there.

well....milwaukee's losing.

[Deleterious]

Defense picked up when the bench came in.

[Deleterious]

This is the BS that bugs me.  Knicks are sitting two starters plus a key bench guy and the game means something.  Cavs are sitting what?  3 or 4 starters tonight and their game means something.  None of these guys are hurt.

[Deleterious]

The Knicks are the dumbest team on earth.  Cade picks up #5 with 6 minutes left.  Next time down the floor, they let Cade stand in the corner and do not involve his guy in the play at all.

[Deleterious]

Getting our answer on Duren.  Stew staying in at the end of the game to play KAT.

[Tigeraholic1]

Great game!

[Deleterious]

All Detroit can do is play the guys in front of them.  Not their fault the Knicks sat half of their rotation.

I think the Pistons have to win out to get the 5 seed. Bucks game meaningless?

Really impressed with Indiana.  Tough beating a team that sat 4 starters. 

[NYLion]

Good win and also illustrates why it'll be tough to justify paying Duren because Stew is the guy you want out there in the 4th against quality bigs. The Pistons likely don't win this game without Stewart's defense.

if they do end up playing the knicks, stewart on kat in the 4th quarter will be fun.  kat whining like a bitch on every play.
