It?s not that Tayshaun Prince is suddenly invisible. He was the subject of a column in the New York Times recently, hailing him as the poster child for players staying in school.

He was being trailed Monday by Ahmad Rashad and a film crew from ABC-TV.

No, the only place that Prince hasn?t been seen lately is on the score sheet. He has not made a basket in the last two games (missing 10 straight shots) and has been outscored 49-6 by Richard Jefferson.

?I don?t think we got him the ball enough and I don?t think he was assertive enough, and he is playing against a great young player,? Pistons Coach Larry Brown said. ?But it?s not just Tay. It was a team thing. They got us to play like a bunch of individuals on the offensive end and we got so out of sync. That will impact guys like Tayshaun.?

Prince was arguably the team?s most valuable player in the Milwaukee series, outplaying Desmond Mason. He got the better of Jefferson in Game 1, but it has been downhill since.

?You can?t be aggressive when we play like we did yesterday (Game 3),? Prince said. ?When we come down and take quick shots and never get the ball moving from side to side, you can?t be aggressive when that happens. The last game we didn?t run anything right.?

A point of emphasis tonight will be to re-establish Prince offensively.

?I kept telling him during the course of the game if (Jefferson) is going to try to score on you, you have to score on them,? Brown said. ?But the whole team was so out of whack, because they got us so scattered, it really impacts him a lot.?
