Ed. note: Apologies for the long preview today. Few teams interest me more than the Pistons, so I might have gotten carried away. - BQR
UPDATE: Richard Hamilton will re-join the Pistons' starting lineup tonight, according to Vince Ellis of the Detroit Free Press. Allen Iverson, who is questionable with a sore back, will come off the bench if he plays at all. (Ht: BDL). Hamilton, like Iverson, is a Magic-killer. Check out his games against the Magic since joining the Pistons. Pay special attention to his shooting percentages, in addition to his scoring. Ridiculous.
UPDATE 2: Mickael Pietrus will be available for Orlando tonight, reports Kyle Hightower. Pietrus has missed Orlando's last three games. Whatever happens, I don't want him to start. Courtney Lee is tearing it up, and there's no reason to bench him.

It's no secret that the Detroit Pistons head into tonight's game against the Orlando Magic in a prolonged slump. Rasheed Wallace's meltdown during Wednesday's game against New Orleans brought the Pistons' struggles to the forefront, although the folks at Empty the Bench were all over it earlier this week. Detroit has lost its last 8 games by a total of 63 points, but even before this losing streak it had a negative point differential. Matt Watson of NBA FanHouse (and Detroit Bad Boys) says it's the end of an era. Even after the Pistons traded Chauncey Billups for Allen Iverson's Expiring Contract--let's be clear, they acquired him for financial reasons--I figured they'd still be competitive, and probably hang onto the East's fourth seed. Now, they're fighting for their playoff lives with the likes of Philadelphia, Milwaukee, Chicago, New Jersey, and New York. Yeah, it's been a rough year. At least they still have Michael Curry's suits to make fun of. (via DBB)
Make the jump to read the rest of today's game preview.
Although Wallace will not face a suspension from the league for his tirade, the team might choose to make him sit out tonight. After throwing a towel into the stands, he threw another at Curry. One would think Pistons head honcho Joe Dumars wouldn't stand for that. Of course, Dumars also doesn't stand for losing, and Wallace's potential absence dramatically increases the odds of that occurrence. Few players in this league defend Magic star center Dwight Howard better than 'Sheed, because he's physical enough to muscle Dwight out of his comfort zone, intelligent enough to anticipate Dwight's post movements, and tenured enough to get away with some poking, prodding, and swatting down low. That's fine. The Pistons' overall defense of late has been astonishingly bad. From John Schuhmann of NBA.com:
Their defensive rating over the last 21 games (112.4) is at the level the Clippers have been this season.
Ouch. The Magic need to seize the opportunity to light up the scoreboard against a volatile opponent tonight. The last time they played Detroit, they got suckered into playing at a snail's pace, and could not find many open looks from the perimeter. The latter point may hold true tonight, as Detroit has the personnel to defend Howard one-on-one, and thus stay at home with the Magic's shooters. Hedo Turkoglu is going to have trouble getting past Tayshaun Prince, which makes Rashard Lewis that much more important. Since returning from the All-Star break, Lewis' shooting has taken a bit of a hit. His effective field goal percentage is 50%, down from 54.3% before the break. That may not seem like a lot, and maybe I'm making too much of that drop, but among similarly skilled players, that's roughly the difference between Mehmet Okur and Marvin Williams. I'd also like to see the sizzling (67.2 eFG% in his last 3 games) Courtney Lee take it to longtime Magic-killer Allen Iverson. And maybe, just maybe, new point guard Rafer Alston can teach the struggling Rodney Stuckey a thing or two.
Tip's at 7 on ESPN or FSN Florida. ESPN's RV thinger will be there before the game, so if you're near Amway Arena, it might be worth checking out. Go Magic.

Ever since Anthony Bowie called a timeout in the last few seconds of a blowout against Detroit to try to get his triple double
The Karma gods have been killing the Magic by having the Pistons absolutely destroying them the last 6-7 years in multiple ways. First it is by always having the biggest upper hand in each of the two trades the two teams have made (that I can remember): Ben Wallace & Chucky Atkins for Grant Hill and then later with Kelvin Cato (expiring contract) and the rights to a 1st round pick (Rodney Stuckey) for Carlos Arroyo and Darko Milicic. Then the Pistons have systematically eliminated the Magic in the playoffs 3 times.
Surely, the Magic has finally paid its debt for that one arrogant moment in our franchise history. I still fear the Pistons even though they seem weak, and I’m especially worried about tonight against them because their backs are against the wall with this 8 game losing streak.

I remember a telecast a few years ago with Collins announcing a Magic game
He mentioned that particular game and thought how arrogant he found that team. So yeah, I guess that game has stayed with him out of the hundreds of games he has coached in his career.

The Magic could have easily avoided the curse of Ben Wallace.
Orlando, stupidly, stayed loyal to Amaechi and chose to retain him as opposed to Wallace.
Detroit was content with either player, simply to process the sign-and-trade.
As they said, the rest is history.
Former Senior Writer for DePaul's Scout.com website
I bomb atomically/Socrates' philosophies and hypothesis can't define how I be droppin these/mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery - Inspectah Deck
That, and the fact that Amaechi turned down more money from the Lakers in order to stay here.
A perfect storm of fail.
Wasn't there also a "make good" contract with Bo Outlaw that offseason as well?
Since Bo was playing for the Magic at a discount for a few more seasons than Ben Wallace’s one year with the team, they decided to award Bo over him. At least that was how I remembered it.
Even though the Hippopotamus lacks a stinger for a tail, a truly wise man would rather be sat on by a bee. ~ Banacek
You would be correct. Bo did re-sign with the Magic during the same off-season.
However, Orlando didn’t do it to reward Bo more than Ben. I could be wrong, since that’s a while back, but I don’t remember that being the case.
I definitely remember the Amaechi part, though. I’ll never forget that.

Off topic but sorta related
Thoughts of that season brings back another memory. I remember when the Magic were chasing the last playoff spot against George Karl’s Bucks and before the season ended, Karl said something to the effect of what a shame that Orlando had no intention of re-signing any players from that team that was playing so hard (douchebag). That also prompted several other Karl-related memories. During one of the all-star games when he coached the West, he triple-teamed Shaq (which is unheard of in that sort of event). This season, he complained about the Magic running up the score in Denver (which is hilarious considering his team did something similar against NY a few years back).
That’s 3 separate incidences (and coaching three separate teams) that Karl put the Magic on his radar. What is his problem with Orlando? It’s so weird.

Never easy playing Detroit for one big reason
Not only for all those reasons Ben just mentioned in the preview, but don’t you guys notice how much he’s always talking to Dwight before, during, and after the game? Not really trash-talking, but almost looks like a “mentor” (very unSheed-like). Seems like he does a great job of getting into Dwight’s head by making him become too comfortable.
It's no secret that Sheed has offered advice to Howard in-game.
Whatever you personally think of Wallace, just know that every teammate that has played with him LOVES the dude. He’s the consummate teammate in the locker room and on the court (aside from the technical fouls, etc). I can’t help but be a fan of Sheed; that’s just for me, though.
Former Senior Writer for DePaul's Scout.com website
I bomb atomically/Socrates' philosophies and hypothesis can't define how I be droppin these/mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery - Inspectah Deck
I've heard you say this once before, disagreed then, and will always disagree
You say everyone that has been his teammate has LOVED him? Not true. His teammates, the past two seasons have grown frustrated with the technical fouls, which can often sway the outcome of the game. He has been the talk of trade rumors the past two summers and the rumors are because the team and front office have had enough the antics. Look at this recent tirade that cost them the game in New Orleans. He is definitely not the consummate teammate on the court if he’s costing his team victories because of his actions, I just have a hard time agreeing with that. You can be a fan of him, he loves the game, he plays his heart out all the time, but don’t say everyone he has ever played with has LOVED HIM, when you simply don’t have evidence to back that up. His team, front-office and fans certainly don’t LOVE the idea of him costing them games by acting like a two year old, here is a quote from one of his former teammates, the former TRUE LEADER of that franchise:
"’Sheed was just vocal and visual about his (frustration)," Billups said. "I can’t say it was all Rasheed or it was only Rasheed. But even with that, I just still feel like that should have never come into play. I feel like no matter what the coach is doing, how you feel or whatever, you can’t cheat your teammates and not give maximum effort because you’re mad at the coach.
"I think that cost us at least one championship."
Consummate professional/teammate? Not so much.

Not Feeling Confident
No matter how good we are or how bad they are I never feel good about playing Detroit, I guess that’s a function of the fact that they’ve been beating us ever since i can remember. Hopefully we can start turning this around.
Why isn’t ‘Sheed out? I thought he was getting a suspension, that’s what they said during the broadcast when he got thrown out. It seems like throwing a towel into the crowd and at your own coach would warrant that.
He got called for two technicals, which would have brought his season total to 16, which means an automatic one-game suspension. But two of his earlier technicals were rescinded.

how the hell does a tech get rescinded?
does the league then rescind the FT that came along with that tech? Somehow I doubt that. What bs.

Yeah, that would almost stand to reason that the free throws should be rescinded as well.

Tayshaun Prince is the last player from that one playoff team . . .
That came back to defeat the Magic in the playoffs after they were down 3-1, right? I can’t remember if that was before the Stackhouse/Hamilton trade or not.
I think once Prince is gone, I will finally feel good about a Magic/Pistons game.

Magic are 9.5 point favorites tonight
I’m sure SVG worked the guys hard in practice, after the two awful defensive performances against the Bulls and Knicks.

I have a bad feeling about tonight for some reason.
I’m convinced the Pistons “lucked” into a victory over the Magic in late December because with Rip out of the game that night, Curry accidentally played Detroit’s best lineup that night. Had the Pistons played their three-guard lineup that evening, I’m convinced Orlando would have won that game.
Cue tonight, and the same scenario occurs .. this time with A.I.
Pistons will be able to play “Detroit basketball” tonight with Rip back in the lineup.

There’s no doubt that Alston is starter quality, but he is not better than Jameer.

I haven't heard anyone said he'd start over Jameer
thats ludicrous. However, I’ve heard several national media claim he is a better passer and ball distributor than Jameer. I don’t know if I agree with that either, I think we all need to spend more time watching Rafer play before we decide (in terms of passing) as, I don’t think any of us watched the majority of his game’s in Houston.

So is he just not a good fit with Denver and Detroit?
Or is he beginning to slow down? I’m sure he’s still coveted, but he’d really have to fit with the team…and who knows how much his new team will pay, if anyone can even afford him.
Be a C-Y-N-I-C!
My answer is below.
He’s definitely declining as a player.

I bomb atomically/Socrates' philosophies and hypothesis can't define how I be droppin these/mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery - Inspectah Deck

Even though the Hippopotamus lacks a stinger for a tail, a truly wise man would rather be sat on by a bee. ~ Banacek
Put it this way. Don't expect Detroit to re-sign him.
Also, don’t be surprised to see a team that .. isn’t really good, try to sign him for pure PR seasons. He’s a player that can definitely sell tickets, though not in Detroit. They snapped their long sell-out streak a little while back .. partly due to the Pistons losing, but also due to the economy too.

So you're saying . .
they let Billups go for nothing?
If that’s the case they shoulda at least traded AI before the deadline but maybe there were no takers?
OR maybe Dumars wouldn’t want to admit such an epic failure so soon?
I think Dumars just wants a blank slate to work with
He also saves a ton of money for Detroit by not having to pay Billups’ contract.
Even though the Hippopotamus lacks a stinger for a tail, a truly wise man would rather be sat on by a bee. ~ Banacek
They let Billups go because they wanted to clear cap space for 2010.
That was their clear agenda, though Dumars felt (at the time) the Pistons could still win with A.I. at the helm. Plus Detroit wanted to clear the way for Rodney Stuckey, who’s the team’s point guard of the future.
Former Senior Writer for DePaul's Scout.com website
I bomb atomically/Socrates' philosophies and hypothesis can't define how I be droppin these/mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery - Inspectah Deck
Needless to say, the trade has been a disaster right now but ..
.. the end result might net a guy like Chris Bosh, which would make the move worth it then.
Dumars covets CB4 heavily, hence the Billups/Iverson trade, to try to sign him in free agency.
Former Senior Writer for DePaul's Scout.com website
I bomb atomically/Socrates' philosophies and hypothesis can't define how I be droppin these/mockeries, lyrically perform armed robbery - Inspectah Deck
One more thing.
The trade is definitely risky on Detroit’s part, but Dumars is banking on his ability to re-tool the team around Stuckey, Prince, and others .. and then hopefully capping it off by signing one of the big names in 2010. It’ll be an interesting development to see, that’s for sure.
