I know many of you despise Sheed for signing with the enemy, but put that aside for a moment:

After many successful, frustrating years with Detroit, Rasheed Wallace has committed to the Boston Celtics. As a Sheed fan since his early Blazer days, the move to the rival Celtics stings. San Antonio and Orlando wouldn’t have been much better, but the Celtics may be the worst place he could have landed from a Pistons fan’s point of view.
I’m actually pretty surprised he signed with Boston, considering his playing time will be considerably lower compared to signing with the Magic or Spurs. The Celtics will likely use their mid-level exception …

I stumbled across an interesting little piece from the Orlando Sentinel yesterday. It was an article that assessed whether or not Rasheed Wallace would be a good fit with the Magic, if they were to sign him. As you may already know, Orlando-ites don’t exactly love Sheed (but who does?).
Regardless, in the amount of time it took for Magic fans to read the article, Rasheed did a complete 180 from a no-good cry baby to an impeccable team player and all-around great guy. Newly ordained Sheed-worshippers commented relentlessly, and 78% …

• It’s tough for the Detroit Pistons to get accustomed to the sweets sound of the Jazz being played in Utah. The Pistons fell to the Utah Jazz again last night, 99-82, in Salt Lake City which marked the fourth straight season that the Jazz have swept the Pistons in the regular season. [Eric]
•Mehmet Okur was hot early and dominated all 21 minutes he was on the floor. Finishing 8-9 from the field, Memo continues …

Why did the Pistons hire Michael Curry?
Short and simple: they needed someone who would punish our little drama queens when they got out of line.
Judging by his [lack of] decision-making during Sunday’s pitiful performance against the Knicks, he’s not doing a very good job.
There are so many questions. Why, after going scoreless in the first 4 minutes and finishing the first quarter down by 17 points, was the bench not in sooner? How did Walter Herrmann sit the first 3 quarters when the Pistons were getting manhandled? Why did Rodney …

All that talk about the Lakers going 15-0?  The Pistons thought otherwise, knocking off L.A. on their home turf 106-95.
Sheed led the way with 25 points and 13 boards, including a crazy long range bank shot (note Top Play #6 below).  I love to see Sheed rallied up getting those nitty-gritty boards in the post.  All too often does he check in, launch a couple long bombs, then sit back down when he gets in foul trouble.  This was not one of those games, and you could tell the man …

Let AI rest, the Pistons are on a roll.
Detroit pulled off a 100-93 win in Toronto yesterday night- without Chauncey Billups, Antonio McDyess, or Allen Iverson.  Chauncey still hasn’t taken his physical over in Denver, but it is scheduled for today so Iverson is almost guaranteed against the Nets on Friday.
It was “one of those games” for Tayshaun, who knocked down 10 of 13 and finished with 27 points, 9 rebounds.  He was unguardable last night, swooping to the bucket at will.
There were so many second-chance points that fell in favor of Detroit.  …
