Pistons Haven't Won In Utah since......
....forever, well at least that's what it seems like. Detroit will be batteling The Utah Jazz (36-21) in their third game of their last Wester trip of the season. Detroit has not won a game in Utah since November 6th, 2002, and are just 4-23 there since 1980. To top things off, Utah is currently on a 14 game home winning streak.
Tip off is at 9:00 PM and will be broadcast on myTV20 Detroit. If you can't catch it on TV you can always tune in to 1130 AM WDFN The Fan or stream it live through your computer at NBA.com.
I'm trying to think of something that will break us free of this Utah jinx so......
GO JAZZ!
And Go Karl Malone, even though he loves Beanie Babies.

Magloire signed with the Mavs. So the Pistons are almost certainly getting Dale Davis.
so far so well against the jazz... but i wont feel safe until the final buzzer rings... damn jazz have had their way with detroit for too long
We better look out, Korver is seriously bringing the painful D in Utah...

hahahah omg too funny
I don't usually use instant message talk but I am really LMAO right after that picture...Nice Mike
Dude, have I been the only one to notice how crappy the pistons telecasts have been? (especially in HD??) The score is never on time and sometime minutes late. I've never seen such a lack for a long time. Whoever is in charge of posting the score for the pistons games needs to be fired immediately. Tonight I've called FSN detroit, MyTv20 Detroit and the Palace, but no one is willing to take the blame, or tell me who is responsible for the pistons scoreboard or telecast. The last Pistons HD telecast froze for a long time in an important part of the game, and the score is always slow to follow. Am I the only one who notices this????
Evan...It happened to me the other day in HD it was weird like only half of the screen froze but today I have been ok. You know when that happened I switched over to the broadcast the regular way and it was fine.
Do you have comcast because that's where I thought the problem was coming from. I feel you...
yeah I have comcast too. That must have been the problem. I found myself watching only the basket to see if any pistons balls went in. but other than that I've noticed for a long time the score has been way behind. I find myself yelling at the TV, "Are you going to give us the points?!?!"
Thank god our boys are playing decent. I have the flu and been home from work since last friday. Rodney doesn't look bad tonight. He is making better decisions tonight.
I was worried about you Uyen, glad to see your ok.
I swear I bet it's Comcast.
can u imagine if we had DW as a backup PG???
Thanks Natalie.
does anyone else wonder why tayshaun basketballs don;t got in when he goes to the rim? i mean some do but almost all his missed tonight were shots taht did not fall when he drove to the basket. I am not sure why this is because they look good but then they bounce back out.
detoirt pistons fans are all over, I love it...
Natalie, is it jus met or Ben is playing like his old self?
Have you ever tried to drive the hoop in a pickup game?! It's not as easy as it looks.
pistons cant beat the jazz they will lose
the curse of okur pistons suck haha
I'm a little worried now, GO Jazz that worked before.
And Uyen, Im disappointed with Ben now it looks like he was tanking it in Chicago, I still think he's done though.
Jessi...I wish tay was making those we need them now.
What happened??? It is a 4 pt game.
its fucking time to bench afflalo yay let our bullshit worthless rookies play flip u homo..and let a veteran dixon play we want a championship not trying to build fan favs here..shoulda traded for vince carter but dumars has no balls..fuck the collapsing pistons..my moneys on the jazz pistons suck
I realize that evan, I am not putting tay down at all for it, you can tell he is playing hard, I was just pointing out that when he drives the ball bounces out, it has to be hard for him I know everytime it happens I feel bad because it would be nice for him if tehy fell.
Flip Needs TO Call Timeouts Thats What Happened
"Flip Needs TO Call Timeouts Thats What Happened"
I was just going to bitch about that. He's done better in that department this season but come one...that was ridiculous.
Vince Carter? No thanks, that selfish injury prone baby would never bring this team a championship.
flip is the worst coach ever..he sucks hes cursed..same shit happend in minnesota he cant get to the finals..LB 2 finals..FS JACK SHIT! FIRE FLIP! FIRE FLIP! get the fuckin bench out of the game u retarded ass coach!
I know Natalie But well Get Em In the Fourth
better than GAYshaun!
worst game ever they suck
stuckey=mateen cleaves WORTHLESS
I agree nat we do not need or want vince on this team,
WHAT ARE THESE ROTATIONS?!?!?!?

flip is so horrible! take out the fucking bench!!
Really classy anon, you make your point well by your infectious words that's why nobody is taking you seriously.
Go buy a Kerilenko jersey and be gone.

I am getting absolutely sick of people blaming flip saunders, could any of you coach a NBA team?? Didn't think so. Even the pros say flip is the best coach in the league. It's easy to use flip as a scapegoat. It the PLAYERS who are controlling the game, not the coach.
dont need it i got my lebron jersey kickin strong haha
to ever one who says the pistons suck and are getting worried, do remember it the pistons, I was worried when the pistons were up by so much because I knew it was to good to be ture given the history the pistons have had with this team...
this website should be called forsureokur.com cuz we should dumped sheed and kept memo
Wats Up With All These BUllShit Floping Offfensive fouls
Maybe i spoke too soon about Rodney
evan, i agree it's the players who are in control of the game... and that's EXACTLY the problem. Flip isn't changing it up when the players are causing the problems! CHANGE THE ROTATIONS!
OF's are killing us and every single one has looked bogus on the replay but it doesn't excuse the Pistons play the last 10 min.
GAME OVER! JAZZ WINS!!!!!
ok I thought this game was bing call fare until this last quater... some questionable calls in this one.. however it will it will not be the reaons for the out come no matter how it ends..

here's a game plan: let's let Okur stand in the same spot and shoot the same 3-pointer 568 times in a row. COME ON guys. ugh.
pistons dont got a chance in hell in the finals WEST RULES!
This post has been removed by a blog administrator.
WTF!!!!! WERE WE EVEN TRYIN IN THE 4TH.
ok now I am worried no way we will win this one... one thing I think happened here was they got comfortable with such a large lead adn didn't think the jazz were going to come fighting but they did... I think flip left the young guys in so long due to the lead... well I guess we will have to beat them next yr..
as for bring rasheed to the team if joe did not make that move the pistons would not have won a ship as well rasheed is the reason we started in the game at the end drawing the fouls he is also the reason we won a lot of our games this season.. very tough loss tonight..
O COME ON BE ORIGANAL GET UR OWN SHIT BOSTON BASKETBALL. LOL YEAH RIGHT. HOW ABOUT BOSTON HAS NO BENCH
ok the posron who said F*** rasheed either removed their post or did you do that nat?
heart broken.. i dont fucking get it... utah is a good team, but g'damn!!! how can we ALWAYS lose to them... it makes NOOO sense... we were up 18!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
to all the non pistons fans in here see detroit in a 7 game series then we can talk
No Amir, did Flip take crazy pills this morning? Do you think he might have been able to bother Brewer and (Ronnie) Milsap a little? Oh, by the way, you might want to deny Memo the ball. 17 assists...Deron schooled Chauncey tonight. Too much dribbling, too much one-on-one B.S. (DTR - 17 assists, Utah - 29 assists). The offensive fouls were horsesh!t home calls, but the Pistons didn't bring it once Brewer fired up the crowd. Whoever was playing defense on Brewer and Milsap need to remove their head from their bootays. I love the Pistons, I really do, but this kind of effort frustrates the crap out of me.
I did, seriously no place for language like that here.
I agree with You 100% twalch.3 straight 3's by okur was ridiculous
I agree when I ready that i was a little upset... I know that there are young kids who come to this site glad you keep it clean...
Very disappointed that they let this one go, especially since they were playing near perfect basketball in the first half. A little too selfish in the second.
...and yes the Memo three's really killed me.
I really hope this doesn't start another backslide, but that seems to be the pattern lately.
It was a good effort, but that run Utah went on was brutal.
this wasa fun game to watch... It kinda of reminded me of the old pistons however where they couldn't hang on to the big lead going into the forth and then everything was put on the line either they won or they lost and well thisone they lost.. I am not all that upset able the loss, I do not think the pistons are meant to win against the jazz, i am just happy that they are not the best team in the west so we probably wont see they in the finals
The Pistons win everyone cheers.
The Pistons lose everyone freaks out.
This has been getting old. If anything I would trade some of our fans for Darko.
I agree anon 8:50,but that being said I do think some of our players keep making the same mistakes over and over.Poor coaching to leave them in the game.
Pull their sorry arse when that happens,mybe they will get the point!
FIRE FLIP, FIRE FLIP, FIRE FLIP!!!!
HE RUINED A DYNASTY!
hey nat, jess and need4sheed crew. ok first of all i missed the game but after reading the news and the box, it "KINDA" told me the story of the game...but offcourse i would rather hear it from here too. first of all, whats up with amir not playing? second, what happen to the ball movement on the 2nd half? as much as i hate to bring this up but this reminds me of game 7 with the spurs, but then again im glad i didn't see this game.
ric
Millsap reminded me a bit of the 2nd Boston game when Big Baby Davis comes off the bench and fires at will.
It almost seems sometimes like the pistons are prepared to deal with some of the guys in the other team, but if someone else gets going they are overstretched.
on espn.com rumors, it says joe might be waiting for another big man to be waived, who do you think this could be?
rbaaan this might help you or us to figure it out....lets see whos the unrestricted free agent.
http://www.nba.com/transactions/movement2008_index.html
where was amir?!?!?!?!
why does everyone have this infatuation with amir johnson? theres a reason y he was close to being a last pick in the draft.. hes not that good! id rather have herrmann in there than amir..u all gotta realize that these players r here for the money and dont care if they leave or go u need to stop this super hero like dedication to these players who dont give 2 shits about u..its getting old..
I fell asleep in this one.. not even half way through the game. I was tired. I woke up hoping for a good outcome but, seen a disappointment.
Oh and Richard I think you're mixing me and Jessi up because we are two different people. I post as Jess and she posts as Jessi... just thought you should know.
got it jess! but hey, ric and richard are the same by the way. u feel asleep!!!??? how could you!!? just kidding. well at least u didn't miss a whole lot.
I know.. I always stay tunned even when I know its a blowout or a definit loss.. but I was so tired. I had came from work just on time for tip-off and I think we were leading by 19 at the time when I fell asleep.
its good u didn't see it from waking up...it would've ruined ur good nap!!! or would've been waking up from a nightmare. hey, so who do u think joe d is waiting for to get waive..i've been looking around. nat, give us the scoop, who is joe d waiting for....i know i know, u always share everything u know. i just wish i can read joe d's mind.
http://www.nba.com/transactions/movement2008_index.html
Im clueless about these things but IN JOE D. I TRUST!
Yea Natalie, I figured youd get a kick out of that picture, I was LMAO too, way to funny.
