Tayshaun Prince says his knee is completely healthy

Dan and I have both mentioned our belief that the Pistons should give Tayshaun Prince more rest since it appeared by his passive play that his knee was really bothering him. That’s apparently not the case though. Vincent Goodwill of The Detroit News:

"Prince was battling a knee injury the first few games, but said it’s no longer a factor and hasn’t been since the first Pistons-Bulls meeting."

I saw Prince say that in his postgame comments last night and it was pretty surprising. He certainly still looks bothered by it. He’s never been one to talk about injuries or miss games. His reasoning that the lack of fluidity of the offense is impacting his game certainly has some merit, but he’s also not moving like a completely healthy player right now.
