Great Game, Detroit!

Mo's numbers have actually gone down this year compared to last year:

07-08 17.2 PPG, 6.3 APG, 3.5 RPG, 48.0 FG%, 38.5 3P%
08-09 15.9 PPG, 3.9 APG, 3.2 RPG, 47.3 FG%, 37.0 3P%

Still good numbers, but down in five major categories. People just notice him more now because he is in Cleveland and not easily overlooked Milwaukee.

i'm sure you praised him 3 years ago?? yeah right...

What does that have to do with anything?

I'm simply saying that he's put up really good numbers ever since he became a starter, and you tried telling me that he hasn't.

He has had a really solid career ever since he became a full-time starter. He has stats to prove it. Your the one telling me that he hasn't done anything besides this year.

Mo probably doesn't have to do as much work now I can imagine. He is a key player with Cleveland, but when he was with Milwaukee, I can only imagine he was the main player.

i know...he has been on a bad team until this year and now people have seen that he's halfway decent

Redd has been their main player for quite a few seasons, but Mo was their #2 guy in 06-07 and 07-08, as he is in Cleveland this year.

But one thing that has changed indisputably is Mo is no longer a major playmaker, hence the biggest statistical drop-off being assists. Mo had to get lots of assists in Milwaukee, but with James being a far superior ballhandler than Redd, Mo doesn't have to chalk up lots of assists each night now.

yeah easy for lebron to get the assists now with the double/triple teams, so mo is making the shots instead of distributing...that is probably another reason why he has played very well is the presence of someone like lebron so that he gets open jumpers all day long, but you still have to knock them down.

Hmmm....the Detroit Brickstons lose their FIFTH STRAIGHT game, this one to the Hornets.

But, like Dan said, now is the time for the Pistons to make that run! Hey, now they're only 9 1/2 games back in the Division.

Awsome game! McBricks really stepped up at the end, and Rodney Brickey especially was impressive. But the best player by far was Rabrick Wallace.
