NBA Obsessed takes you into the hit and run game of NBA Basketball.
Raise your hand if you think LeBron James will be the next Cavalier to shoot
For Cleveland it was a test drive of sorts of just how will the new players work out in the playoffs.
For Detroit it was game 68 of the regular season. Not a time to get worked up about anything.
Cleveland tried LeBron James on Chauncey Billups. They tried Ben Wallace on Rasheed Wallace.
The Pistons just watched and played. They did not even double LeBron.
The Pistons kept their poker faces.
“They look very similar, and that’s not a bad thing,” point guard Chauncey Billups said. “I don’t see too much difference.”
For one thing, problems No. 1, 2 and 3 haven’t changed — LeBron James, LeBron James and LeBron James, who scored 30 Wednesday.
“The big horse,” shooting guard Richard Hamilton said, “is still LeBron.” source
Did the Pistons learn anything?
“We pretty much want to feel out and see how they play with their new guys,” Billups said of the Cavaliers. “Obviously, you still want to come out with the win. But you learn some things about how they like to play with the new guys and what the new guys can do.”
Hmm, they are not speaking.
