Chauncey going down does hurt no matter how you spin it.What,when he comes back will he be 100%? I think not.
I guess you guys just want to make a huge deal out of Chauncey's injury. You're making it out to be a tear in ACL or something! It was just a mild hammy strain, and he could have came back last game but he wouldn't have been 100%.
By the time he is ready to come back, he will be 100%. He could get Game 5 off as well, and be able to rest up until the Celtics/Cavs series is over. They way that series is looking, it will go to 7 games. That means he will get lots of time to rest it, and will be perfectly fine by the time they have to play in the ECFs.
I know Detroit is up 3-1 But after losing four straight last year I wouldn't get to cocky just yet. Dwight Howard is a beast, but he is no LeBron James.
I will agree if Billups gets hurt again we're screwed. We won't get past Boston or Cleveland without him, and even if we did we couldn't beat any of the teams in the West w/out him. His health is crucial, which is why I say we rest him for game 5.
I feel that Detroit is the best all around team in the league. However, I feel that Cleveland is matched up pretty well against them. I think it would be a more intriguing match up for a rematch of last year. I'm not just saying that because im a Cavaliers fan, but because the rivalry has turned into something special over the past 2 years.

With how well Lindsey did in Game 4 and Stuckey did in Game 3, I don't think Flip will be rushing Billups back anytime soon. I think he will have no problem letting Chaucney rest until the ECFs.

I agree OSU, I would love to see a rematch of the Cavs and Pistons. I would love to prove everyone wrong about the Celtics, but I would rather watch a Cavs/Pistons series.

I agree and I don't start him in game 5.I maybe wait and see how the game plays out.If they don't need him at home you let that baby heal. If this happens and the Cavs/C's series goes 7 then he gets lots of time to rest.
