Billups to start but time maybe limited



According to ESPN, Chauncey Billups of the Detroit Pistons may not play tonight. Meaning he probably will play. The only reason they say that is to sway betting because they are shady. Rotoworld, a less credited but I feel, more reliable source says he is hopeful for Saturday. This sounds more like it. Big Shot Billups sits down for no man, even if that man is Rodney Stuckey (back up PG), who has a striking resemblance to rapper, 50 Cent. I expect Billups to play, just not that much. He will play for a while, more of a passer and let Sheed and Rip share in the scoring, then the deep Detroit bench will come in and give Billups a rest. Orlando's back court is a pushover so Billups may be the least important player needed for Detroit in Game Four. I see this being a close game Saturday, with Orlando edging out Detroit by 5.
