Stuckey Eastern Conference Player of the Week


According to this article from the Detroit News, Stuckey is the Eastern Conference Player of the Week. Congratulations to him. Over last week he averaged 23 points, 5 assists, and almost 5 boards. Not bad! It also mentions that the Pistons are 13-3 in games he has started. So be afraid Eastern Conference.


The article also discusses how coach Curry believes that Tayshaun has been the key to the Pistons current 7 game winning streak. He was quoted several times saying "Tay's been our best player." I can't help but agree.


In other news, former Piston Cheikh Samb was traded to the Clippers.

Pistons 88, Clippers 87

Is it too late to get Stuckey in as an All-Star? Last night he once again put the Pistons on his back (well except for Maxiell, he's too heavy.) Stuckey finished with 24 pts, 4 rbs, 6 asts, and only 3 turnovers. AI recorded a double double, with 18 points and 10 assists. Howeva, he was 7-22 from the field. Ewwwwwwwww. We may have gotten the W, and extended our win streak to 7, but it wasn't pretty. The Clippers had only 9 people play, with Brian Skinner and Fred Jones in the starting lineup, and for Sparty fans, there was a Paul Davis sighting. Eric Gordon had a career high 31 points, but needed 33 for the Clippers to win, as he missed the game-winning shot. Camby was a beast, grabbing 20 boards. What is disturbing is that we allowed the throw-in from the Zach Randolph trade, Mardy Collins, to drop 12 dimes! Yes, 12, and the guy is a shooting guard. If the Pistons had played like they are capable of, this shouldn't have been close. They better get their crap together before Wednesday's game in Portland
