Pistons develop bench
By Niles Kruger nkruger@monroenews.com
Ben Wallace is goine, but the Detroit Pistons might be better equipped to handle the rigors of the NBA Playoffs this season.
Coach Flip Saunders has been showing more faith in his bench this season and the backups are rewarding that faith. Jason Maxiel, Flip Murray, Carlos Delfino, Will Blalock and even Dale Davis have made important contributions this season. Soon, Lindsey Hunter will return to provide a defensive spark.
The starters are getting some rest this season. They shouldn’t be so exhausted when playoff time arrives.
