	Pistons are up 3-1 and just beat the Magic on the road without him. I say we sit him again so he can heal for the next round. All the Pistons need to do is win one of the next three... Sit or play, what's your call?

	I feel that you NEVER give a professional team a break when it is time to put them away! If the Pistons DO put the Magic away, Chauncy will have time before the next round to get better. As long as there is great communication between Billups and the coaching/medical staff, the team will benefit!

	Definately leave him on the bench. Give that leg as much time as we can to heal. We can win this series without him but very few games without him after this.

	It really depends on his condition. If he doesn't risk further injury and both he and the medical staff feel he is good enough to go then let him play. If the medical staff feel he has a chance of re-aggravating the injury then he sits. This seems to be a touchy situation. You definitely want your team leader for the long haul!
