That and the Refs call ticky tacks on the C's and Billups swings his hands wildly all over everyone and no call!

god damn. oh well. It was a good game. Just had to play smarter in the final 5 seconds. No second guessing.

Well we deserved to lose quite simply..We sucked to put it nicely in the second half..We completly played the way the Pistons would want us to play which was slowish..Pretty stupid of us to play their tempo instead of our tempo..Pierce never got into the game and Ray wasn't used enough cause he was on fire..Rondo got taken out by refs and Perk just plainly needs to LEARN TO NOT WIND UP EVERY TIME UNDER THE HOOP...o well, you win some you lose some..but i really wanted a win, we had soooo many chances...

What a battle. That fake of Billups got us way more than it should have. Disappointing we lost. We let their pressure get to us.

We'll get them next time. It's a good thing we lost now rather than later. Character building.... A lot of good things to look at this game, so the next time we beat them.

I'm pretty sure everyone knew that Billups was gonna pump fake it except Tony Allen..I just had a gut feeling he would just to be a you know what..O well, TA made him look a fool the play before...I still can't believe with 5.1 seconds, tied, and the ball that we lose on free throws...

Questionable call on our last shot. Pierce should have been thinking like Billups--draw contact and get to the line. Don't force a fadeaway, especially on Teyshaun.
Was a good game. Wish we could have won, but I hope we learn from this.

The good thing is we played into their hands and lost on ft's with .1 seconds left.
I really do think we need another pg outside of house and TA. I think DA will bring someone in eventually.

Very close game. The achilles team of this team is free throws. 60% +/- tonight.

The Detriot Pistons took the game away from us. Their defense and better outside shooting killed us in the 2nd half. Honestly, I don't think Rivers coached em up very good tonight and the starters simply got tired. I will go to the play by play and do a full accident investigation.

Disappointing loss, and I agree that both our last offensive possession and last defensive stance were very poor. Doc even said in his post game comments he warned the team about Billups' pumpfakes. I love Tony Allen, but I wouldn't have had him on the floor with the game on the line -- he needs to learn to make better decisions. I agree about Pierce and another fade-away to win or lose a game. He had enough time to try and draw a foul at least, plus had the inbounds passer seen it, Garnet was open coming across the paint.
On the one hand, we've lost both our "show down" games with the next two best teams in the east, but on the other hand, both were by a mere 2 points. There is plenty of time left for fine-tuning.
