Detroit: rocked city

[dforant1]

Allen could pull it off but he goes into a dribbling trance. Notice his body 
goes lower and lower when he gets out of control. Easy fix, dump the ball 
sooner. He is a force when he's out there. If it weren't for him in the 1st 
half adding some athleticism out there we would have been deeper in the 
hole.
