There is no doubting that Jerry Stackhouse is the leader on the Detroit Pistons ball club, the All-Star trying his hardest to get the Detroit Pistons out of the first round of the Playoffs.  Stackhouse?s teammates, however, have put their faith in Stack stating that he does not have to do it alone.

"It is really unfair to say that Jerry has to get us to the next round," Jon Barry said. "We have played as a team all year long and we need everybody to step up. It's not about Jerry playing an unbelievable game and putting us on his shoulders. We've never played that way.

"Jerry shouldn't be feeling any pressure," Cliff Robinson said. "No one should be trying to take on too much responsibility. It is a team game. You just want everybody to play the type of game they are capable of playing. We just need to come out relaxed and play the kind of game we played all year.?

"Jerry knows the situation," Robinson said. "He's a very good player. I have no doubt that he will come back and have a big game for us. It's just a matter of relaxing and just playing the game."
