38 points off the bench as the Detroit Pistons outlasted the Milwaukee Bucks,
126-121, in overtime in a battle of Central Division rivals.
Rasheed Wallace also achieved a season-high with 27 points and set a career-
mark with seven three-pointers for the Pistons, who have won two in a row.
Allen Iverson chipped in 27 points and nine assists while Antonio McDyess
finished with 16 points and nine boards.
Ramon Sessions set a career-high with 44 points and doled out a season-high 12
assists for the Bucks, who have lost two in a row. Charlie Villanueva had a
season-high 33 points and Richard Jefferson had 16 points.
Keith Bogans, playing in his first game with the Bucks since a trade with
Orlando, had eight points in defeat.
Up by three late in the game, Sessions lost the ball and Detroit took over.
McDyess then nailed a jumper to make it 106-105 with 1:49 left.
The teams traded baskets and the Pistons, still trailing by one, got the ball
back with 34.3 seconds left following a missed short-range jumper from
Francisco Elson. Hamilton had his layup bid swatted on the Pistons' first
play, but retained possession.
On the ensuing inbounds pass, Tayshaun Prince hit Hamilton on a short pass and
"Rip" drained a baseline jumper to give the visitors the lead, 109-108, with
26 seconds remaining.
Sessions then drove the lane down at the other end but was fouled with 21
seconds left. He hit 1-of-2 at the stripe to tie it at 109-all.
The Pistons held the ball for the final shot but with 9.6 seconds left,
McDyess was called for an offensive foul and Milwaukee got the ball.
Prince stole the ball on the Bucks' inbounds pass and hustled down the court
before passing to Hamilton for a last-second shot. His bid caromed off the
rim, though, and the teams headed for overtime.
Wallace's dunk tied the game at 117 with 80 seconds left in the extra frame.
Bogans hit a pair from the line, then with 53.7 seconds left Iverson drove
the lane and dropped in a layup high off the glass and was fouled. He
connected for a three-point play to make it 120-119.
The teams traded baskets and Charlie Bell botched a short-range jumper while
Prince grabbed the rebound with 15.2 seconds left to give Detroit the ball up
by one.
Hamilton was fouled with 14.8 seconds left and hit both shots to make it
124-121.
The Bucks had one last shot but Jefferson's three-point attempt bounced off
the rim and hit the shot clock, giving the Pistons the ball and essentially
the game.
The Pistons led 30-19 after the first frame and were up 54-45 at the break.
The lead seesawed for the better part of the third quarter and Villanueva's
free throw and Sessions' dunk gave the Bucks an 82-79 lead heading into the
final 12 minutes.
Down by five late in the fourth, Iverson drained a pair from the line and
McDyess nailed a jumper to bring the visitors within 97-96 with 4 1/2 minutes
left.
Sessions then poured in five straight points to make it 102-96, but Prince
knocked down a three to make it a three-point affair with 3:23 showing on the
clock.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds
With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.
In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
Just because it is the All-Star break doesn’t mean that you can’t bet on NBA hoops this weekend. Be sure to log onto MySportsbook.com to bet on who you think will cut down the nets this July.
