    We "should" win but could be a trap considering their frontcourt.

    If Dwight won't show up this game it will be hard for DMO to defend Drummond. On the other hand Drummond has no defensive game except his few possible block shots a game.

    Josh Smith has never been tempermental or hotheaded.

    This is like that guy who guaranteed that Cousins would be arrested in the next 5 years.

    A toss up. The Pistons have been struggling lately, but the Rockets will be playing their 3rd game in 4 nights and were awful in the 2nd half against Boston.

    It would be nice to get a win and finish January with a 12-5 record for the month.

    I'm going to this game! It's a 2 hour drive for me but where I live now it's 2 hours to any sports city so this is my only chance to see the Rockets of the year. I'll snap some photos for you all. Look for the dude in the Rockets cap on the baseline side of the Pistons' tunnel.
    :grin:

    Observing the Smoove reaction live should be interesting.

    Drummond IQ is so low - you have to dig hard to find it. But Van Gundy is one of the best defensive coaches in the league and since Howard is out he probably ready to lock DMo off. Let's see how DMo performs.

    The whole Josh Smith was ruining the Pistons thing is bs. They just weren't using him correctly. You gotta get him distributing or he's being misused.

    a lot, I like our players all even, except Smith. I still hate we signed him, he is lazy on defense and shoots too much
