Hayes’ 29 leads Pistons over Hornets
The Piston Post | A Detroit Pistons Blog —
Pistons fans can only hope that Georgia wins the NCAA tournament now.
“Georgia made to the SEC championship game yesterday, and I’m just riding the wave,” Hayes said after scoring 29 points in the Detroit Pistons’ 105-84 win over New Orleans on Sunday. “I was feeling good all day long.”
Jarvis went 10-13 from the floor, including 7-8 from downtown, in a game where he simply couldn’t miss a shot. He continues to notch big games against big opponents, with February’s manhandling of the Suns coming to mind, when Hayes dropped 18. Hopefully this type of play can extend into the playoffs, with Hayes ...

Block of the Year: Jason Maxiell Eliminates Tyson Chandler Alley-oop
FanIQ Blog —
I promise we'll actually get talking about this March Madness business, but we've got time. First, the rejection Mike Tirico accurately dubbed "block of the year."
As far as I can tell the New Orleans Hornets have one play with a few different options. Tyson Chandler comes up to the back court to set up a pick and roll with Chris Paul. Depending, of course, on how the defenders choose to position themselves either Paul penetrates and what usually happens, Paul throws the ball up somewhere near the rim and Chandler throws it down.
It shouldn't be that easy. Sooner or later, an astute ...
Weekly Pwnage: Tyson, Meet Jason
Intentional Foul —
So what’s better? A blocked shot or getting dunked on? How about blocking an alley-oop dunk attempt? I’m not sure but you might want to ask Jason Maxiell and Tyson Chandler their opinion before making yours:
The saying, “Don’t you bring that weak sh** in here” comes to mind but Chandler doesn’t go weak to the rim. Maxiell was just a little stronger than he was. It’s almost like the irresistible force, immovable object paradox.
In this case, the immovable object (Maxiell) won.

Lists Are Bourgeois…
SLAM Online —
By Myles Brown and Russ Bengtson
If the ever lasting craze of reality game shows has shown us anything, its that people like judging, ranking and eliminating things. Models, musicians, crackheads, p0rn stars, whatever. So do we. But there’s not enough lists in basketball for our liking so Russ and I decided to do something about that. Frequently. Lists Are Bourgeois, but we’re doing them anyway. Our opinions don’t necessarily reflect those of the rest of the SLAM staff, but they should. Otherwise those f*ckers are just plain wrong. Enjoy.

The All $1 Million And Under Team

Arron Afflalo – A rookie out of UCLA, Afflalo may be best known for his collegiate career and announcers stumbling over his last name for some inexplicable reason. To be honest I was a little surprised to see that he played in 75 regular season games (12.9 MPG) and 9 of Detroit’s 11 playoff games thus far. Afflalo entered the Association with ...
Watch Out For This Guy
RedsArmy.com - The Voice Of Celtics Fans —
That’s one of the plays of the year… and the man behind it is Jason Maxiell. I think Jason Maxiell should have been 6th man of the year… mainly because Manu Ginobili isn’t really a starter.
For some reason… he only played 17 minutes against the Celtics in game 1. Considering the Celtics have ...
Pistons vs. Hornets
Need4Sheed.com —
The Pistons will host the 23-13 New Orleans Hornets tonight at the Palace to try to snap their current 4 game losing streak. The Pistons have not lost five games in a row in five years, so a loss tonight against the Hornets will just add another black eye to what’s been going on with the team lately.
Will Maxiell get some time? We sure hope so, especially when he’s posted DNP’s in the last couple of games and when he has gotten some playing time he’s lucky if he reaches double digit minutes. You know things are bad when Pistons fans and Maxiell are pissed.
“It’s coming to a point in my career where ...
