In Kenny's defense (something I rarely do) he grabbed him around the 
shoulders before the shot -- we had a foul to give -- but Atkins slipped 
loose and took the shot. It was a generous continuation. Still, Kenny should 
have just let him go so the clock would keep ticking since the Pistons were 
out of timeouts. Antoine gave it to him pretty good. Not he first time that 
Kenny's made a bad foul in the last seconds this year. I'm glad he wasn't 
near Stackhouse at the end.
