Wide open shot for a guy shooting 50% from downtown? Absolutely. Blatche hits that shot once a game at least. Just so happens that he missed. Would I have liked Gil to take the shot? Of course, but the Pistons weren't going to let that happen.We needed Wall in that OT, Gil just didn't have the gas to get it done there. Overall pretty happy with everyone. McGee looked good going up against one of the better rebounding C combos in the league, so that's great. Young continues to play very, very well. Clearly all the tape he watched of Rip helped. Consistency is key, and he's been consistent of late.
Blatche is clearly struggling with that injury, wouldn't surprise me if he gets a few games off when Yi comes back, but he made some clutch buckets. He just doesn't seem to have the lateral movement that he usually does.
