New Orleans Pelicans vs. Detroit Pistons matchup breakdown

Pistons are rebuilding, but with Anthony Davis (NO) on the bench, maybe they can make a game of it. They recently got former teammate Tayshaun Prince back and traded for Reggie Jackson at the deadline with OKC. Pistons surged a bit after waiving Josh Smith (so we'll see what affect these latest roster shake-ups will have), but the highlights of the season so far have been the Steve Gundy (HC/President of Basketball Operations) post-game interviews and this half court shot by one of the dancers at the Knicks game:

Someone's got skills.

Detroit Pistons dancer Kathryn Martin heaved a shot backward from mid-court and hit nothing but net during halftime of the Pistons-Knicks game Friday. The crowd roared, and the dancer was carried triumphantly by the Pistons mascot.

She never made the shot when she practiced it, a Pistons rep told The Huffington Post, but she "made the shot when it counted."

Given that the Pistons are mired in the NBA's Central Division cellar, maybe they ought to consider signing her up and letting someone else do the halftime entertaining.
