I'm so f**king pissed off right now. Why can't we beat the Pistons in Detroit? It's not even the same Pistons that we've been losing to since 2003. They've beat us 20 out of 25 times now. I can't f**king stand it. I don't care if we lose a game once in a while, but to lose to Detroit is a disgrace. No Billups, Hamilton, Prince, Rasheed, McDyess, Maxiel and they still win??!?!?!?!? f**k this team right now. And Vince Carter played ZERO defense. None. Nada. Absolutely nothing. No effort from Carter. What a joke. I can't stand losing to this team. I'm so sick of it.

Hey, at least the Heat lost tonight also. So no undefeated teams in our conference.

And once again, we look like s**t on offense at the end of games. Our last three possessions that mattered, we had a forced shot by Bass that was blocked and two offensive fouls. Great productivity fellas!

Anderson pulled a Hedo out there - missing everything but continues to shoot in a tight ball game instead of cutting his losses and helping out his teammates instead.

Sloppy a** play by the Magic all night long. The last few minutes were extremely frustrating to watch.

So in the end:

1. Pistons continue to totally own us for whatever f-ing reason.
2. Magic DON'T go to 4-0 for the first time in team history

One answer: The collapse of T-Mac and the 2003 Magic. Period. That's is what the Pistons is owning us at.

I know we weren't going 82-0, but when you're battling for that ever so important one seed you can NOT lose a game like this. We were playing as bad as these guys have ever played and we still led for most of the 4th.

If they don't wake up fast, Phoenix will run us out of the gym tomorrow. If tonight's effort is any indication, we could lose our next two. Evidently when that Pistons jersey trots on the floor we get scared to death. Nelson could not have played any dumber and Anderson couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. When the 3's aren't falling, you have to drive the ball. So stupid.

The fact that we just settled for 3s shows how stupid these guys can be sometimes. Throughout the entire game, we would drive until we were about 12 feet away from the basket and then we looked out to the 3 point line. How about going to the basket once in a while?

Tonight is as bad as I've ever seen Jameer Nelson play. I don't know what he was doing. Barnes and Williams should have had more minutes.

It was just one of those nights. It happens. Luckily there are 82 games in the season.

that game was flat out pathetic. completely stupid basketball at the end of the 4th and our perimeter defense was beyond pathetic. I'll give vince a break because he wasnt 100% and thats why you didnt see him in the 4th qtr. the officiating in that game was HORRENDOUS, but we still could of pulled it out if we played our game.

Terrible game tonight but sometimes these nights happen especially with alot of new guys. I bet we wont see nights like this often. We get to rebound back against the Pistons in Orlando on Friday.

ryan had a terrible game too tonight. I really like the kid but even I was starting to notice in the first 3 games that his defense isn't up to snuff yet. I dont know if it will happen this year but I think SVG can turn him into a decent defensive player. If JJ can be half decent then Anderson can be too, but it would be nice to have rashard back.

Shouldn't have played vince tonight either, he is clearly not 100%. He had no lateral movement tonight at all and even SVG said in the postgame that the trainer Tom Smith told him in the 4th qtr he should sit vince cause the ankle was starting to get worse.

“I’m a big guy, but it still hurts when I’m getting hit this much. It’s getting worse, but I have to keep my composure and try not to complain. The last two games, though, I’ve been very close to going off.”

Dwight is gonna knock a motherf**ker out pretty soon
