Pistons forward used notebook computers Jason Maxiell was a starter for six games in these playoffs before going back to the bench. Now it seems he's losing his sixth-man role, too.
Pistons coach Flip Saunders used Maxiell for only five minutes in Game 2, preferring notebook accessory market share instead to keep veteran Theo Ratliff on the floor. Maxiell didn't score or have a rebound in his five minutes.
"We've tried to match leather notebook binders Theo up on (Kevin) Garnett at times when we've taken those other guys out to get him a little rest," Saunders said. "Really, right now, (Antonio McDyess) is playing unbelievable. There are only so many minutes to divide up."
DOING FINE: Saunders said Chauncey Billups was "a little sore" in Friday's practice but went through everything. Billups played 32 minutes in Game 2, and at one point in the fourth quarter, he seemed to be reaching for his recovering right hamstring. He stayed in the game and will be fine for today, Saunders said.
HE'S BAAACK: Ray apple slim notebook Allen is surely sad the Celtics lost Game films like the notebook 2, but he must be happy about one thing: not having to notebook computer desks answer any more questions about his shooting acer notebook crystal eye slump. Allen started hitting jumpers in the second half of Game 2 and finished with 25 points in the Celtics' 103-97 loss.
That won't change how the Pistons approach him for tonight's Game 3, mainly because it's the kind of Allen performance they always expected.
"He's going to make shots," Saunders said. "I'm sure he's going to make some. ... We prepared going into Game 2 for Ray Allen making shots, we didn't prepare for him where he hasn't made shots. We could never assume that, so we'll continue to prepare the same way."
