The Detroit Pistons have slowly been falling off the map of the Eastern Conference playoff race and now they will be without Rasheed Wallace for their upcoming game against the Orlando Magic.
In the Pistons loss last night against the New Orleans Hornets, Wallace received a technical foul and then was ejected after he threw a towel that a ballboy gave him into the stands.
It's "Rasheed being Rasheed."
To quickly switch to the Pistons woes, they have lost eight straight and currently stand 7th in playoff seeding in the East. Could they miss the playoffs? That is entirely possible and looks like maybe Chauncey Billups was not the problem and Allen Iverson is definitely not "The Answer."
Update: Rasheed Wallace will not be suspended for the game against the Orlando Magic due the ruling that once a player has to acquire more than 15 technical fouls for the automatic one game suspension to take affect. Wallace up to this point had received 16 technical fouls but two of them were rescinded.
Wallace currently to date has 14 technical fouls.
