COACHING NEWS:

Coach Jones, formerly of the Michigan Wolverines basketball team, has accepted the offer of the Detroit Pistons head coach. Flip Saunders was fired before Training Camp and this was why according to the owner.

"Since Larry Brown left we have fell short of a championship ever since. He can't lead us to a title and that's why he's gone."

Coach Jones has gladly accepted the offer and said he will not retire until NBA Live 09 comes out. Or until he gets really bored with this.

Game Notes:

1st- The game was close all quarter. Detroit had the biggest lead by 9 in that quarter. The gap was 7.

2nd- With 4:36 to go, R. Stuckey was injured. He came back later in the 4th. The Pistons lead got up to 14 at one point. The Trail Blazers widdled it down to 7 at one time. The score going into break was 56-43

3rd- It looked like Detroit had it all wrapped up. But the Trail Blazers, led behind Josh McRoberts, brought the lead down to 1! The Pistons had a little run before the 3rd ended, giving them a 6 point lead, 74-68

4th- The Trail Blazers opened up with a 10-0 run including the end of the 3rd to finally tie it up. Somewhere in there Stuckey got hurt....again. As soon as it was tied, it was all back and forth. But with :25 to go, Billups nailed a shot in the corner to give Detroit a 2 point lead. A Trail Blazer took a wild 3-pointer after that and Detroit made their free throws. They win 96-90.

Did Billups get over 20? Of course he did! But he had help from.............


...Rip Hamilton!! He scored 23 points to add to Detroit's 96.
