Count me in as one of the guys that thought the Pistons should not have brought back Tayshaun Prince as I think he is very overrated. Prince has played in 18 games (all starts) for the Pistons so far this year and he is averaging 33.3 minutes, 12.0 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game. This lack on production shouldn’t be too shocking as his career numbers are average for a small forward at best. Prince has now played in 679 games (640 starts) in his first 10 years with the Pistons and he is averaging 33.4 minutes, 12.9 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game.

The Pistons shot 50% from the floor and they outrebounded the Heat 43-26 last night, but they still fell short. Austin Daye probably had the best night of his NBA career with 28 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal in 30 minutes off the bench. Greg Monroe also had an outstanding game with 20 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 steals and 1 blocked shot last night. Brandon Knight (17 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists) and Rodney Stuckey (15 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 steal) also pitched in for the Pistons last night. The Pistons are now 4-15 on the year.

The Pistons only shot 34.1% from the floor and they were outrebounded 51-38 on Monday, which helps explain the scoreboard. Brandon Knight (13 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal) and Greg Monroe (12 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals) led the way for the Pistons in this game. Rodney Stuckey (12 points and 3 rebounds) and Jonas Jerebko (11 points, 5 rebounds and 2 steals) also pitched in. The Pistons are now 4-14 on the year.

The Pistons grinded out a nice home win last Saturday Night over the Blazers. Rodney Stuckey led the way for the Pistons in this game with 28 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists. Tayshaun Prince also had a solid game with 17 points, 2 rebounds and 3 blocked shots. Brandon Knight (14 points, 3 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 blocked shot), Jonas Jerebko (11 points, 5 rebounds and 2 blocked shots) and Greg Monroe (10 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals and 1 blocked shot) also pitched in for the Pistons. The Pistons are now 4-13 on the year.

The Pistons outrebounded the Grizzlies 38-27 last Friday Night, but, they didn’t play any D as the Grizzlies shot 57.4% from the floor. Brandon Knight led the way for the Pistons in this game with 22 points, 1 rebound, 4 assists and 1 steal. Tayshaun Prince (14 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assists and 1 steal) and Greg Monroe (10 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 1 blocked shot) also had decent games for the Pistons. Ben Gordon pitched in with 10 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist in this game. The Pistons are now 3-13 on the year.
