D-Troit Radio
"From the TD Waterhouse I´m Mark Johnson here with Tom Harrison. Tonight the Pistons will face Orlando Magic in their home court. The Pistons came from a very exosting game between the Washington Wizards. Coach Nadilo said that have a great respect for the Orlando bacause a great ex Piston player is G.Hill how has trade for Ben Wallace. This trade clearly benifit Detroit because the career of Hill practicaly ended here in Orlando. What´s your oppinion on this game Tom?"
"Orlando is in the second place of the Southeast Division behind Miami they start good this season if I have to be honest with the fans I don´t think Orlando can beat Detroit but it will be interesting to see what kind of strategy the coach of the Magic will use against the Pistons. Orlando has not the best playes on the NBA but they are good enought to get to the Playoffs. Players like G.Hill and D.Howard can change the course of the game ofcourse they will have to be in 100% confidence tonight if they want to get this game. On the other hand we have the Pistons with this great way of playing basket last game was not eazy for the Pistons because Chauncey was very unfocus but still got it. Tonight after a long time the Pistons will start with the classic starting five. Tayshaun said he is ready to play and Billups said he will do it better this game. The best benefit in this game will be Ben Wallace bacause he has a clear advantage on T.Battie physicaly and mentaly Ben is been chosse to start the All-Star Game but also for Player of the Year. Probably the best strategy for tonight will to post the two big Wallace under the rim and let them work."
"OK we go now whit the tip off to get start this game...."
After Game
Final Stats
"Well all I can say is that was a wash out the Pistons won by 40 points in the hole season I think this game shows that Detroit have a great roster and coach. The Pistons scored from all sides it´s the first time that Detroit have better stats % than the other team. In the first quarter the Pistons were unglue but during the rest of the game they kill the other team by playing excelent offence and defence to have a better idea on how much was the domain in the half of the 3rd quarter Detroit had a 22 points scored with no answer by Orlando. Worst to Orlando Cuttino Mobbey was injured in the last minutes of the game. Ben Wallace didn´t let T.Battie score in the 35 minutes he was in the court. Rasheed was outstanding scoring the rim and defending Chauncey was a lot better than last time he lead the team to a great victory. Coach Nadilo try S.Parker as a Center player and he like what he saw tonight."
"G.Hill takes Prince to the Old School Basket."
"Chauncey was 8-14 from the 3 points line."
"Howard with the hard foul on Rasheed."
"Tayshaun Prince wih the dunk"
"Detroit on a 22-0 scoring run!!"

Picture of the Game
"Chauncey was a lot better than last time. Here with the 3 point play."
"Well that all the action now we go to the press room to hear what coach Nadilo have to say about the game..."
Coach Nadilo
On the game
"It was a game that any coach want to coach everything was dropping I talked to them because of last game results and they catch it quickly. Today we play against a good team and we impose our game speed. In the first quarter we were analysing the game of Orlando because it´s the first time we meet them we quickly understood that pressuring the ofence was key to get this game. The fact that their point guard had 11 turnovers shows that they were loss. It was important that Ben Wallace stop the ofensive producting of T.Battie. From the start of the second quarter till the end we explote our offence not only in the paint but also our abbility to hurt them from outside Chauncey was 8-14 from the 3 point line so that give us a clear advantage. Tonight I try Stephon Parker as a Center player because I want him to have that second possition he was good maybe he didn´t got a lot of number but next time he will."
On Chauncey Billups
"Tonight he was much better than last time because he was full confidence on his game he was the player with the high points. His good eyes on the court give us many opportunities to change the speed of this game."
On Rasheed Wallace
"He Played a perfect game he was good from the court and excelent from the free throw line and he got 11 blocks to stop the offence. When you have a player that does so much for the team and take no credit from that you have a great player. He stay out of foul trouble so that´s a pluss for his game."
Stephon Parker
"In this game you was test as a Center player. How that felt?"
"It was Ok...I prefer to play as a PF but coach Nadilo want me to play along Rasheed. It was good he is helping me a lot he has a lot of expierence on this league so I´m just learning I hope I would do better next time."
Rasheed Wallace
"You were 13-15 from the court 8-8 from the free throw line and 11 blocks. Do you feel this has been the best game for you?"
"No it was a great game for everybody I think we all did our work we play togher as one that´s what matter win or lose we stay togher. Been player of the game is a recognition."
"This is all fromt Orlando. Detroit has won this game and have more confidence to play next game against the Atlanta Hawks for the first time. Rasheed was key to win this game with this high game. See you next game."
