About 7 players didn't show up for the shootaround today as some sort of protest of their coach. This is wild..the line is already up to 10 (started at 8, I believe). Are they going to show up with like 8 players? wtf?!

All's I can find out is that the players organized some sort of protest and only 6 players showed up for practice. Meanwhile, the head coach John Kuester is saying that the players were sick and it's nothing to be concerned about. Btw, the players not showing up are McGrady, Prince, Hamilton, Wilcox and Ben Wallace. Stuckey and Daye missed practice also but showed up later. I'm trying to find out more info....

Rodney Stuckey and Austin Daye were among four Pistons to miss the team bus
to shootaround, but they did at least show up late.
Detroit's players held an unofficial "player protest," which included Rip
Hamilton (no surprise), Tayshaun Prince, Chris Wilcox, and Tracy McGrady. It
sounds like Rip (groin), Tayshaun (flu), and T-Mac (headache) will all sit
out, but Detroit's roster for this evening is totally up in the air.

Was going to play Detroit as they play Philly well. Not touching this at all.

yea bb nailed it. Situations where the line is over-inflated because of injury or some controversy doesn't really end well to fade it. Not sure philly has it in them to cover 11 now.

Philly up by 10 at half 59-49. Looks like game went off -11/195.5.

Half-time line is Philly -3/97.5.

I'm thinking of playing the under 2nd half as it gives me an under of 205.5 for the game.

Thoughts?
