Can't disagree unfortunately. This is usually the game that Detroit owns at but not anymore.
I never thought I'd see the day when the Detroit Pistons would let a team come into their arena, beat the out of them physically, and not even put up a fight. This team has no heart, no will to win, and no fire.
Blow them up.
Can't disagree unfortunately. This is usually the game that Detroit owns at but not anymore.
This team will let Iverson and Wallace go in the offseason. They may be even worse next season, but hope to land big in the 2010 sweepstakes. They could be ok with Stucky, Rip, and Prince with Maxiell, Affalo, McDyess, and Johnson being solid role players.
Actually, this is the one game they actually did fight back. Overall, the team has major problems.
What game did you watch? As Lp just mentioned, this game the Pistons actually did fight after a bad first quarter. You can say the team has no heart or fire, but tonight's game wouldn't be the example to use to support that claim.
Detroit is done. And, they are being blown up. Again, already mentioned, Rasheed and Iverson have expiring contracts and they won't be back next year. That's blowing it up.
If you were going to call out Detroit for lack of heart, you should use games like losing to Washington or Oklahoma City or getting blown out by Minnesota at home as examples. Not tonight's game.
And, I guess that gives you a little relief since one team that the Pistons can still physically dominate is the Lakers.
This thread is not about the Los Angeles Lakers.
Obviously I've struck a nerve by calling your team out, which you must believe to be true somewhere in your heart based on your response. When I saw Maxiel just get thrown to the floor by Perkins it said it all to me. BOS isn't afraid of the bad boy Pistons anymore. Quite frankly, why should they?
This is not a thread or messageboard that precludes people from making tangental commentary.
It's not striking a nerve when I agreed with the conclusion. Detroit is done. And, they are being blown up.
Problem is your using tonight as an example was stupid. And, the fact that you didn't know that the team is already being blown up speaks to you talking out of your ass.
I didn't argue that the Pistons should scare anyone. I didn't disagree that they are done. I'm calling you stupid for using tonight as an example and not realizing that they are being blown up already.
But it's also obvious that you're not able to understand that. Why would you be?
What do you expect from this ? He didn't even know how many championships his own team had early in the year.
DrHouse is the worse and most re ed poster on the entire ST site. Dont waste your time explaining to him. He'll still believe what his feeble mind is telling him at the end anyhow.
I agree, DrHouse is annoying as and is probably far worse than any Lakers Homer (oops Kobe's ) than any other Lakers fan (Lakerluva is still the bigger though).
BTW not every thing is about the Lakers you re !!! If you want that, why not jack off at Lakersground & Clublakers???
the sad thing is that this is actually one of the better defense games the pistons had.
This thread is not about the Los Angeles Lakers.
The only people who mentioned the Lakers were Spur fan and Piston fan.
Laker fan did not mention the Lakers in this thread.
dumars is a idiot for trading billups i dont know why he saw it as a bad thing that they put up good fights in the confernce finals even if they didnt win all the time they were close
Please come to the Spurs Rasheed![]()
Everyone knew Detroit was done when they lost to Boston last year. Detroit has capitalized on some luck and a weak East for their run, but the East is much better now and Detroit itself has regressed. Still, the fact that they were able to win a le with Chauncy BILLUPS as their best player is an impressive feat, considering it takes superstars to win in this league.
I dont think i would call it luck. Luck wouldve caught up to us and got us stomped out by an 8th seed in the first round.
Why exactly did they get rid of Chauncey Billups?
To start Rodney Stuckey and get a load of cap space for the next few off seasons.
With Billups, did you think they were going to win a le this year? Would they be able to beat Boston with Billups? Cleveland?
They weren't.
MrsHouse fails again. She's a master of kicking a dog while its down and gloating because LA can cash all the checks she's writing.
What a .
Don't be so touchy, Mr. Defensive. I just asked a question. You sound like the Mavs fans after the Kidd trade.
They had a great run with their team, realized that team went as far as it can go, and now they're rebuilding on the fly. They could get really good again quickly without having to miss the playoffs or go the traditional "blow it up" route. Kinda like what the Mavs did by letting Nash go & trading the Antoine's. But that's what happens when you have a good GM.
How is that touchy? I answered your question.
