The Pistons beat the Nets 118-95 Sunday night, making it their third blowout win of the season. Jason Maxiell, the Pistons 6th man had another double-double, 18 points and 11 rebounds, making it his second double-double of the season. He played great. In the first half he had a monster one hand put back dunk. Rip Hamilton who had been struggling due to injury and illness, finally broke loose scoring 19 points. The Pistons led by 10 points before halftime and led by as many as 29 points in the second half.

Clowning Around:

Before the Game, Jason Maxiell was constantly hit in the back with basketballs thrown by his teammates, as he was being interviewed on the side-line. At one point, he was even simultaneously hit with a barrage of basketballs thrown by Rip, Chauncey, Amir and basically anyone who wanted to join the fun. It started with non-other than, you guessed it, the big silly Rasheed "Rosco" Wallace. Tayshaun Prince, who was watching nearby, saw the whole thing and started cracking up.
