Billups sore, unsure he can go in Game 4
Published 5/8/2008 at FOXSports.com News for NBA
Chauncey Billups said Thursday he was still sore, a night after he was forced to leave the Pistons' loss to Orlando in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference semifinals because of a strained right hamstring.
The All-Star guard said he isn't sure if he will be ready to play in Game 4 on Saturday in Orlando. The Magic's 111-86 victory Wednesday cut the Pistons' lead to 2-1.
"Just going to take it one day at a time and see what happens," Billups said.
