    No Lin, no Asik and no Harden. This will be tough.

    Spurs rested their big 3 and they still beat the warriors on the road, we only have ONE of our BIG 3 players out tonight so it shouldn't be anything to worry about vs a team like the pistons.

    This would be a good time to sign Troy Daniels to a 10 day contract

    The Spurs are a championship caliber team with arguably the best coach in the past 15 years. I don't understand why you're comparing us to the Spurs.

    Not to mention the Warriors are incredibly overrated & the Pistons are incredibly underrated.

    got you ! I was being sarcastic but to be honest parsons, howard, harden are our big 3 from what the majority say here. Everyone else are role players so Howard & parsons should be able to pick up the slack & pull this out

    They beat the Pacers. I think we have a big 4, not a big 3 anyway and 2 are out. We have 3 slashers but the main 2 are out and 2 playmakers who are both out. The lack of playmaking may help or hurt. We'll see. Maybe the team will be forced to move the ball around and get good shots because there's no one to facilitate beyond what Parsons can bring. This will be an interesting game, or a really ugly one.

    3 of the big 4 are still playing (Howard, Parsons, Beverley) so no excuse not to win this.

    what does this mean? lin + harden for love and martin?

    If we could feed the ball to dwight and 3 point snipers who have been shooting blanks all of the sudden find their range, we can win this. otherwise. it's going to be a long mike fratello like game.
