Pistons,In a stunning development 114-109 win over Rockets With Pistons coach Stan Van Gundy waving the white flag on the season, he allowed Stanley Johnson, Henry Ellenson and Boban Marjanovic to finish the game against the Houston Rockets. And they delivered http://www.officialpistonstore.com/Joe_Dumars_Jersey in the 114-109 victory at the Toyota Center. Coach Mike D'Antoni rested starting center Clint Capela and said he'll rest other players in the last three regular-season games after Houston clinched the third spot in the Western Conference on Wednesday. The Pistons used reserves Friday night to keep their faint playoff hopes The Rockets led by two after a dunk by Montrezl Harrell before Ish Smith made a basket to tie it. James Harden missed a 3-pointer on the other end, and Johnson's 3-pointer made it 110-107. Harden finished one rebound shy of a triple-double with 33 points, 12 assists and nine rebounds. Harden missed another 3-point attempt, and Johnson added the free throws to make it 112-107. Harrell added a layup after that but Tobias Harris tacked on two more free throws with eight seconds left. It’s more how the game’s played currently with the high number of pick-and-rolls that force big men to be adept at lateral movement. You can’t hide at power forward — Ellenson’s projected spot. Houston led by as many as 11 in the first half and was up 54-52 at halftime. Boban Marjanovic, Detroit's 7-foot-3 backup center, led the Pistons http://www.officialpistonstore.com with a career-high 27 points with 12 rebounds off the bench. Ellenson scored 15 points in the first start of his career and his two free throws allowed the Pistons to pull within 105-103 with 1:51 left. Marjanovic finished the first half with 17 points and five rebounds. Marjanovic dominated with 27 points and 12 rebounds. His lay-up with 1:28 remaining tied the game at 105. Johnson, who has had an unimpressive season, made several key plays down the stretch and nailed key three-pointers — the last one giving the Pistons (36-43) a 110-107 lead with 32.4 seconds left. Ish Smith added 20 points, as the Pistons fended off 33 points, 12 assists and nine rebounds from Rockets star James Harden. The Rockets (53-26) rocked the Pistons with seven three-pointers in taking a 30-24 lead after the first quarter, but the Pistons received a boost from a stretch where Marjanovic scored eight straight points. But Harden scored seven points in a 13-6 run to close the second quarter, giving the Rockets a 54-52 lead at the half. The reason Van Gundy has been reluctant to play Ellenson and Marjanovic is for defensive reasons. However, Harden and Patrick Beverley http://www.officialcapitalsauthentic.com/Mike_Gartner_Jersey won't be among those who will sit out because they refused when he asked them. Smith got the Pistons within 1 point with a jump shot with about nine minutes left in the third quarter before Houston used a 10-3 run, with two 3-pointers from Harden, to make it 69-61 midway through the period. The Pistons scored seven straight points, with five from Harris, to cut the lead to 76-73 with about two minutes left in the quarter. But Houston outscored the Pistons 9-2 the rest of the quarter to lead 87-75 entering the fourth. Lou Williams scored the seven points in that span and Harden capped the run with a reverse layup. Reggie Bullock made back to back 3-pointers early in the fourth quarter to get the Pistons within 6. But Houston made the next six points to extend its lead to 93-81. The Pistons used a 12-1 spurt, capped by four points from Marjanovic, to cut the lead to 94-93 midway through the fourth quarter. Houston missed seven straight shots in span before Eric Gordon ended the drought with a 3-pointer to make it 97-93. A 3-pointer by Johnson tied it with about three minutes left before Harden made a pair of 3-pointers sandwiched around a layup by Henry Ellenson to give Houston a 105-101 lead. Michael Gbinije missed the game with a respiratory infection.Smith finished with 20 points.The Pistons had just six turnovers. Andre Drummond had 15 points and 11 rebounds. Anderson returned after missing the last six games with a sprained right ankle. Harden made seven 3-pointers for his 35th game this season with at least four 3-pointers.Beverley had http://www.officialcapitalsauthentic.com/Brooks_Orpik_Jerseysix points and a career-high 13 rebounds. “I think those forward spots — especially (power forward) — is probably one of the harder to play because you’ve got to be able to play in the post, you’ve got to be able to play on the perimeter, all the way to the three-point line. In a lot of cases, you’ve got to switch on to guards,” Van Gundy said before the game. “It’s a very, very difficult position to defend right now in the NBA.”
