http://0rz.tw/seHdS Tayshaun Prince back in practice, likely to play today BY VINCE ELLIS FREE PRESS SPORTS WRITER He was definitely a sight for sore eyes in Saturday's Pistons practice. Small forward Tayshaun Prince, who has missed the last 26 games with a small ruptured disk in his lower back, was a full participant for the first time since he left the lineup. And if there aren't any setbacks, he will likely be in the starting lineup today when the Pistons travel to Toronto and try to halt a six-game losing streak that has seen them plummet in the Eastern Conference standings. 沒意外的話，Prince將會以先發球員的身分歸隊，一同前往多倫多向暴龍復仇 "It's sore as usual, bumps and bruises trying to get back in the first practice," said Prince, whose return seemed to energize a team which has lacked passion its past few games. "But it felt good." "Sometimes you think it's a lot of pain, but it's more soreness after I started working out." When the Pistons announced on Nov. 3 that Prince's consecutive games streak would end at 496 because of the back injury, it wasn't known how long he would be out of the lineup. 自從11/3那天宣佈 Tay 的連續出賽紀錄因傷不得不中斷以後 沒有人知道他將會缺席多長的時間 Prince described feelings of numbness in his legs while he was out and received treatment from strength and conditioning coach Arnie Kander throughout the time he missed. He was a regular on the bench during games, and it was common to see him doing jumping drills after shoot-arounds and practice. Both Prince and Rip Hamilton -- who will likely return to the lineup today after missing five games with a pulled right hamstring -- started conditioning a few days ago, anticipating going through a full practice Saturday. Rip 與 Tay 應該都會在今天歸隊 Prince, who was known to play heavy minutes, will see his playing time curtailed as a precaution against suffering another injury. Hamilton's quick return without a practice was probably a factor in his hamstring pull. 因為有了Rip可能是為了急著回來，使得傷勢持續的先例 常常加班的小王子，近日歸隊後的上場時間可能會不復已往 "When you're not healthy, you start depending on other areas to compensate for your regular injury and that's how other injuries start to happen," Prince said. "We'll monitor the situation and see what happens." "He looks surprisingly good," coach John Kuester said of Prince. -- ╭──────────╮ │ DETROIT PISTONS │ │ 　 │ │＊ 保 固 專 用 章 ＊│ │Royal Palace .
