Educated Bet – The Science of Sports Betting

EducatedBet…Miss One Game!

Chauncey Billups spent almost all Wednesday night in the trainer’s room.

He was there Thursday, when the rest of the Detroit Pistons took the court to practice. And he’ll be there most of Friday, too. “The goal is Saturday, and that’s what we’ll do. Get him ready for Saturday.” That’s when the Magic will try to tie up their Eastern Conference semifinal series in Game 4 in Orlando. Billups sustained the first hamstring strain of his 11-year NBA career in Detroit’s 111-86 loss to the Magic on Wednesday after getting tangled up with Jameer Nelson under the basket.

Nelson’s foot caught Billups’, and the Pistons guard’s legs split open and he fell to the floor. That was four minutes into the game, and Billups didn’t return. The Pistons said that he is a game time decesion and to be totally honest with you even if Billups does play the Pistons will still lose game 4 by at least 7.

I think that they should keep him out of game 4 and rest him up getting him ready to go back to Detroit for game 5…because the series is going to be 2-2 and they will need him for the stretch run aganisit the Magic. So if Flip Saunders and Joe Dumars read my blogs then I say that you listen to me…I mean I am a doctor! O and ps the Pistons do need Billups to win the series though because if they dont have him I think that it will be to tough to compete with Orlando!
