    Forgot about Speights. Ellington is hot right now, I'll be curious to see if he can maintain that level of play. Either way, they're damn good, at least at the moment.

    Tbh, Detroit was just toying with them scrub-ass Nets... didn't they finish the regular season on a 20-4 run? Also, Pacers were pretty nice that year, they won 61 games...

    Not sure why you want to scoff at the Pistons, tbh... with the talent the Lakers had even without Malone, their 1-4 Finals exit was a huge embarrassment and exposure, tbh....

    I'll respond to the content of this post after you admit to revising history regarding Horance Grant.

    Tbh, I thought he got a few minutes, but then I realized I was confusing that for some reason with Detroit giving Elden Campbell minutes, my bad...

    I think they're legit. They have a strong post game, they rebound, and they play tough defense. They are kind of an "old school" team and not many teams are used to playing against that style.

    The Spurs would have beaten the Pistons in 2004. The Pistons won the finals that year because of Karl Malone's injury and Kobe deciding it would be better to lose than watch Shaq win another finals MVP.
    I still can't get over Shaq shooting 60% + for the series, and Kobe just kept jacking up shots again Prince and missing quite a lot of them. He just didn't really want to pass the ball to Shaq. Karl Malone injury hurt them a lot too.

    Anyway, I think the Grizzles are a pretty tough team. They play tough and hard, that is the kind of game that I like. I don't like soft play.

    I disagree; the 04 Pistons were a lot deeper than the 05 Pistons that took the Spurs to 7 games, and the 04 Spurs didn't have Barry. Their backup PG situation was a mess with Jason Hart also, and Nesterovic was their center (they didn't get the Rose for Mohammed gift from Isiah until the next season). Duncan was healthier in 04, but I'm not sure that cancels everything else out. I think the 04 Pistons would have probably won the series in 6 against the 04 Spurs.

    For instance, their shallow bench in 05 was a huge problem in game 7 when Duncan got the Wallaces and McDyess in foul trouble in the third quarter, and they got stuck putting Prince on him (of course Duncan went off). In 04 they had not only the Wallaces, but Mehmet Okur, Elden Campbell, and Corliss Williamson to throw on Duncan. I think they were much better equipped for guarding Duncan that year,
    Tought call, but I would go with the Spurs in that series. Detroit would have had to shock us like they shocked the Lakers.

    Dude, I'm not calling the Clippers floppers based on one incident (as you've mentioned above). I'm talking a consistent history of absolute blatant flopping by Clipper players. I'm not suggesting ANY team is without players who flop, but the Clippers are so far in first place with ridiculous flopping, it's not even close.

    I could also sit here all day and find flopping videos on youtube. What's the point? There's no denying the Clippers are the biggest flopping team in the league.

    Don't be a moron. I can appreciate the talent LAC has, I just hate the flopping and you know they do it. I hate flopping from anyone, so I'm glad to see the refs are doing a better job of letting things go this season...at least that's what I'm seeing. I don't know if the warnings and fines will solve the issue, but its a step in the right direction.

    Grizz just got curb stomped by Philly again tonight. That makes two straight ass whopping by pretender teams.

    This team has been stumbling the past month.

    Not having a superstar pretty much lowers their expectations as far as playoffs are concerned, and they're not as deep as advertised... I have to believe they'll cool off eventually...
    Right about dem Grizz...

    Unless they ship Rudy Gay, they are not contenders.

    Like I've been saying all year, Grizzlies are antiquated. That grind-it-out no longer works in the NBA. Today's game is all about spacing, spacing, spacing, and the Grizzlies are still rocking a twin-tower configuration straight out of 2005. Sadly, with all the rule changes and what not, games (and championships) are no longer won in the post.

    Got exposed once they started playing road games, tbh.
