|
| |  | DETROIT: GUARDS: RODNEY STUCKEY was hampered by nagging injuries a year ago. If he's healthy, he's the best offensive weapon they have . . . BRANDON KNIGHT is more of a combo guard running the point. He can shoot, but doesn't bring much else to the table . . . With Ben Gordon gone, WILL BYNUM has a chance to regain a significant role . . . The Pistons' two second-round picks have a chance to carve out big roles. KIM ENGLISH has a skill set similar to Gordon's, capable of heating up and scoring in bunches . . . KHRIS MIDDLETON is more of a spot-up, catch-and-shoot threat only . . . Former No. 6 overall pick JONNY FLYNN agreed to a non-guaranteed contract in October, as he is no guarantee to even make this sorry roster. FORWARDS: TAYSHAUN PRINCE is still hanging on as the Pistons' best all-around player . . . JASON MAXIELL should be able to reclaim his starting spot early. He rebounds and takes up space . . . JONAS JEREBKO showed flashes but looked rusty in his first year back from an Achilles injury . . . 2011 2nd-rounder KYLE SINGLER has a good chance to step into the rotation after a solid year in Spain . . . COREY MAGGETTE was acquired in a Ben Gordon salary dump. He'll see limited minutes . . . AUSTIN DAYE regressed big-time last year. Unless he gets off to a hot start, he'll be on the outside looking in at the rotation . . . TERRENCE WILLIAMS is seeking a new lease on life, but could be too much of a head case to realize he's wasting his talent . . . The Pistons are counting down the days left on CHARLIE VILLANUEVA's contract (two years). CENTERS: GREG MONROE is a solid fit in Frank's system. He's not a great athlete, but he can score and move the ball on offense, as well as rebound . . . ANDRE DRUMMOND could one day be a perfect fit alongside Monroe. But for now, he'll watch and learn as a raw, boom-or-bust prospect . . . VIACHESLAV KRAVTSOV is an athletic big who will bring energy, but little offense in limited minutes. | | UTAH: GUARDS: MO WILLIAMS will get a crack at running the point in Utah. He's more of a combo guard, but he'll do fine in an offense that revolves around the bigs . . . RANDY FOYE is a gunning combo guard who will step in as Utah's sixth man . . . ALEC BURKS started to come on late last year, making Raja Bell expendable. He'll come off the bench, but if he can start knocking down perimeter shots, he's in for a much bigger role . . . Yeah, that's right, EARL WATSON and JAMAAL TINSLEY are both still around. And they're both riding pine in Salt Lake . . . KEVIN MURPHY is a cagey scorer from tiny Tennessee Tech (no word on his Golden Tee skills). FORWARDS: PAUL MILLSAP was Utah's best all-around player last season and will be playing for a new contract. He should be able to keep his minutes despite Utah's young bigs behind him . . . GORDON HAYWARD will probably slide to the two. He has a chance for a breakout year after a strong finish to 2011-12 . . . MARVIN WILLIAMS gets a fresh start in Utah after a disappointing run in Atlanta. He figures to have a similar complementary role with the Jazz . . . DERRICK FAVORS is a long-term solution in the frontcourt. His offensive game is coming on, and he's already a far better defender than Al Jefferson . . . Slam dunk champion JEREMY EVANS and DeMARRE CARROLL will both provide energy off the bench. CENTERS: Like Millsap, AL JEFFERSON will hit free agency after the season. He's an incredibly limited player, a great scorer in the low post, but incapable of any other contributions and a huge liability on defense . . . ENES KANTER is still a few years away from a starting job. He has some rough edges to his game, but really had no problem adjusting to the physicality of the NBA. |

*Pistons-Jazz Preview* ======================
By TAYLOR BECHTOLD STATS Writer
Detroit (23-42) at Utah (32-31), 9:00 p.m. EDT
The Utah Jazz have fallen out of eighth place in the Western Conference following a disappointing road trip.
Now they're hoping to regain a share of the final playoff spot in their return to Salt Lake City.
The Jazz will try to snap a four-game losing streak and beat the sinking Detroit Pistons for the 10th straight time at home on Monday night.
With Utah (32-31) mired in its longest losing streak of the season, the surging Los Angeles Lakers took a half-game lead in the conference standings with their win over Chicago on Sunday.
The Jazz, meanwhile, are on the verge of falling to .500 after losing all four games on their road swing and seven of eight overall. They lost their first three on the trip by a total of five points before getting routed 113-84 at New York on Saturday.
Reserve Alec Burks had a team-high 14 points against the Knicks as the Jazz shot 38.5 percent from the field - their worst shooting performance in more than two months.
"Obviously there's not anybody in here that's not frustrated at this point, from players to coaching staff to the trainers. Everybody is frustrated," forward Marvin Williams said. "It's a crucial time of the season. We're in a serious spot right now and each game we've got to come out and play with a sense of urgency."
The Jazz will try to avoid falling further behind as they return to Salt Lake City for the first time since a 30-point win over Charlotte on March 1 to improve to 22-8 at home. While Utah hasn't been nearly as dominant with a 3-3 record in its last six at EnergySolutions Arena, they haven't had any issues there against the Pistons.
The Jazz have won 20 of 22 at home in this series, including nine straight by an average of 9.7 points. They also rallied back from a 15-point deficit in a 90-87 victory at Detroit on Jan. 12 for their 13th win in 14 meetings overall.
Al Jefferson led the way with 20 points and 10 rebounds in that victory, but had just seven points and four rebounds on Saturday in his second game back after missing the previous three with an ankle injury.
Jefferson has averaged 24.3 points on 64.2 percent shooting in his last three against the Pistons.
Paul Millsap, who had 17 points and seven rebounds in the first meeting, is expected to be a game-time decision because of right knee inflammation that sidelined him for Saturday's loss.
After averaging 86.0 points in their last two games, the Jazz will try to get back on track against a Detroit team that has allowed an average of 105.0 while dropping eight of nine.
The Pistons (23-42) lost their fifth straight on Sunday, falling 129-97 to the Los Angeles Clippers in the opener of a four-game road trip.
"We should be able to play better, it doesn't matter what our position is in the standings or if we're playing a good or bad team," said Jose Calderon, who led Detroit with 18 points and hit 4 of 5 from 3-point range.
Coach Lawrence Frank missed his third straight game due to a family matter. Assistant Brian Hill, who's running the team in the meantime, doesn't expect Frank back on this trip.
Brandon Knight had a team-high 16 points against the Jazz in January and is averaging 18.3 in his last six games since missing three with a hyperextended knee. The Pistons, however, have scored just 88.4 per game - 6.0 below their season average - in their last nine contests.
They've dropped 31 of 32 on the road versus West opponents, including 14 in a row.
