Nazr isn't going to help with that problem but he's looked like a decent one on one defender so far and I think he and Rasheed might end up working better together than anticipated.
Again with the rule changes, the rules were changed prior to the Pistons championship season. They aren't a factual excuse. The rule changes didn't even really affect the Pistons anyway, since they weren't a hand checking type of team.

Milwaukee has been lighting up the Pistons for years, they have the Pistons number, in my thought Redd is the toughest player in the league against the Pistons, without Rasheed and Mohammed MIA most of the game, they should have scored 120+, that's the only surprise in that game.
