Yes, Rasheed (as I recall) had them made for everybody.
All the Pistons have it though, right? Not just Rasheed.

You know, the Spurs have a lanky forward who can shoot the long range J, has a tendency to attack the rim, and will crash the boards. Before Piston fan wants to compare Sheed to TD they might think about a more proper comparison, which is Sheed v. Horry...
Barkley wanted a championship, not a belt......When Charles was smirking at it Kenny jabbed him about the belt representing a championship...
The welcoming party is over, that means you can take your lips off of the spurs collective ass now. Who cares who they'll be impressed with. I get the impression you are more concerned with who they are impressed more then getting a win Thursday.
As far as The 'Sheed hate, Im sure you'd see it differently if he was wearing a spurs uniform alongside Duncan. No, 'Sheed is not better than Duncan overall, but Rasheed has a mean streak turned on by emotion that duncan doesn't have. That Mean streak usually makes the difference between and win and a loss. The last thing a team want's to do is get him going.
Don't hate on the championship belt, thats just 'Sheed, it's what he's all about. Loud, proud and not afraid to tell it like it is. I'll take that over politically correct "class" any day.
Sheed has stupidity which tends to be turned on by emotion. If you think Duncan doesn't get pissed you haven't been paying too much attention. Fortunately, Duncan is more adept at channelling his emotion into something productive, such as lighting up chumps like Wallace.
Given Wallace's talent level he has underachieved over the course of his career. Unfortunately for him and your homer self, he was never near Duncan's talent level to begin with.
Duncan has a mean streak, he just keeps his mouth shut when he is on it and kills you anyway.
of course...who wants to have class?![]()
Ever see Duncan have a bad game? It doesn't happen much but when he does, he always follows it up with a 30 point, 15 rebound, 5 block smackdown. Just because Tim doesn't make faces and get technical fouls, don't underestimate the fire and passion of a 2 time MVP. Rasheed is a fierce compe or no doubt. But his emotions can hurt his team. That won't happen to Duncan.
Also, I'd like to know when Tim Duncan ceased to be a "team player". Piston fan needs to lay off the sauce.
Class is overated and overemphasized by those who don't even have it. People get on a message board, use proper grammar, assume they have class, and use themselves as a barometer of what class is. No. It's a tired issue. Not everyone is going to be polite, or politically correct. Instead of hearing about Rasheed's game, I'm hearing about his at ude, and his belt. Is that all you got? You don't have to scream and yell to be an asshole, I think you just proved that.
Who said that?
There is no such thing as a championship ring that is too gaudy. I think you'll find that a universal truth amongst the players.
Nobody is > than Tim btw. Sheed can give him some game if he brings it. When Sheed gets fired up watch out! Only problem is sometimes he's just not firing and he disappears. Pistons are undefeated when Sheed goes for 20.
Pistons are a "do what it takes to win" team. This team always seems to do just enough, and sometimes they seem to take the hard way. Taking the hard way as much as they have makes them unflappable under fire. If they game is close, I put my money on the Pistons. They deliver under fire.
Pistons in 6.
This was my whole point, but its obvious some Spur fans see through rose colored glasses.
post #9 of this threadtruth is:: rasheed > duncan.. he´s more of a team player. not that great post player like tim, but he better allaround and he´s not selfish
how am I an asshole?....I PROPPED Sheed in this very thread. Not once did I say anything about his at ude or his belt. Now you are lying to back yourself up...sounds like you are the asshole.Instead of hearing about Rasheed's game, I'm hearing about his at ude, and his belt. Is that all you got? You don't have to scream and yell to be an asshole, I think you just proved that.
Here is me being an asshole...
Rasheed is a stud. No question about that. The dude has range, a good post game and is a good defender and I have been a big fan of his since UNC
Damn samikeyp your are an asshole![]()
Sheed has been absent in the Piston's losses so far in the playoffs. Duncan is almost never absent from a game, and if he is, the next game he plays like a man possessed.
I don't get the hate for the belt, I think it's pretty original & funny.
Rant mode: ON
Of all the things I cannot stand in the NBA, its' the following that annoy me most:
Trash talking thugs
Guys with more tattoos than skills
Guys who wear hip waders for socks (it's not duck season, guys!)
Puny, slime haired guards who bundle in their blankie when they're not in the game.

Ok...glad I am not the only one who thought that when Nash did that!
Thats cool, I dont see any of that on the pistons side.
3 consecutive games 1/15, 1/17 and 1/19 against Houston, Washington and the Clippers.
18 points, 11 points, 12 points with a combined 15 for 45 from the field...
13.6 ppg and 33% fgp no 30/15/5 anywhere to be found
As a matter of fact, Duncan did not have so much as 1 30/15/5 game the entire season!!!
Let's attempt to put some truth in our threads please!
