Since when did Detroit's offense become so good?

[bigzak25]

lets not pretend like our Spurs offense doesn't go into shooting slumps and freethrow shock.

offense, defense, blah blah blah....

rebounds and turnovers...i.e. hustle, desire and taking care of the ball. that's what it'll come down to. it always does.

[SPARKY]

This thread is a joke. You are all in for some education. The Piston's offense sucks that's why they are the defending champs and have a shot at back to back.

Actually, it would be their defense, the fact they play in a weak ass conference that they can climb to the top in, and that they faced a thin Laker team that lost its starting power forward last year. Also the Lakers weren't exactly a great defensive unit, especially after they lost Malone and had to replace him with Cook or whoever.

Nice of you not to mention one word about why their offense doesn't suck.

Has SA played a frontline as good as Det this year? SA is a two man team,

3 man, but that would mean you actually knew what you were talking about. Actually, has Detroit faced as good of a frontline as the Spurs? That means something other than a Shaq at 60% along with the corpse of Zo's career...

and Larry Brown will out coach Pop. I don't see SA scoring. Let Duncan get his 30 and Manu his 30. Where is the rest coming from? Please, people here have apparently not seen the Pistons play. You should learn from their drubbing of the Lakers last year and show some respect.

WTF man are you dense? Do you not realize that the Spurs have just as good of a defense...and then a little bit better?

You didn't address the main point of this thread you skipped around it because you know your team is weak as on the offense end.

[BadlyDrawnBoy]

SA=two man team. Nazr = joke Parker= no J Horry= 85 years old no way Spurs win.

Back to Back baby. East is best.

Man, you should write for ESPN.com or SI, maybe even... yep, Elle Magazine!

You're that good.

[The Mask]

So that's 60 a game with Manu and Tim alone and no other points from the 10 guys suited up.

Yep. Spurs sweep this .

Only if they are helping your Mom sweep up at Walmart after her shift.

[BadlyDrawnBoy]

No. The Pistons suck at scoring so much that all the Spurs need to do is score 60 each game and they have it sealed.

River parade... here we come!

Since when are the Spurs a 2 man team? Piston fan needs to wait for football season to start.

AWWW Sparky...weak offensive teams always make the finals two years in a row. Go back to your man crush on Manu.

So Piston fan wants everyone to live in the now ("Last year wasn't a fluke!, we're just as good this year") but then keeps referring to last year. hmmm....


Nothing to this point means jack . Neither team has done anything yet. They both need 4 more wins before anyone can talk .

And watch the Lions suck worse than the Pistons offense?

Man, must suck huge hairy balls to live in Detroit. That is all.

Even with that factored in the Pistons' O is worse.

The illegals will bring the Mezcal. You all can drown your sorrows together.

In the east. Yes, yes they do.

see, that shows you how much you know.....the native San Antonians know better than to drink that stuff!

At least we have a football team, what do you have? A letdown of landmark in the Alamo and lots of illegals. Will the last American out of SA please bring the flag.

I'll have a Pistons fan throw some wine out on the court in Detroit for the Spurs to drink asthey hold the troph in the Palace in a sweeping fashion.

Spurs 4 - Pistons 0

Yeah, racist jokes. Is that all you have kid?

Seriously.

Weak.

ahh now its deteriorated to racial smack. I wondered who was going to stop talking about basketball first. Piston Troll #4 has emerged.

[2centsworth]

SA=two man team. Nazr = joke Parker= no J Horry= 85 years old no way Spurs win.

Back to Back baby. East is best.

you're in for the biggest surprise of your life. Parker has a very streaky J, but for as bad as his J suppossedly is he still shoots 47% from the field. There will be a game or two where he will be absolutely unstoppable. Nazr will give us 10-15 a night just and backside rebounding alone, because all your guys will collapse on our big 3.

Spurs are gonna break a record for layups.

[Ishta]

Bottom line....both teams are great on Defense...The edge goes to the Spurs because of our offensive abilities....



oh yeah and we have this player named Tim Duncan...he's pretty good too

[SWC Bonfire]

Golly gee that sure is intelligent! , I'm just an ol' ranch hand down heer in South Texas, do they play basketball with bushel baskets?

Yeah but you guys were trolling for some Pistons banter in this thread. I thought I'd help out. I think it will be a good series, and you will be impressed with the Pistons. I don't think that you've really seen them all to much by the posts here.

[samikeyp]

I don't think that you've really seen them all to much by the posts here.

I would say the same about the Piston fans here about the Spurs judging by their posts.

Last time I checked, this is a Spurs forum. We don't troll for . If you want to troll somewhere do it elsewhere or get your ass banned here. We don't need your useless racist trolling.

Take that back to Detroit.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Hooray! The honeymoon's over! Spurs are not a two man team any more than the Pistons are. The reality of is that although the Pistons may statistically seem more balanced the fact is that they rely on certain guys to get the rest of the team going and if they don't do that then the whole team is in the toilet. The Spurs are the same way. This series will come down to all the great stuff that we've come to expect from both teams-hustle, hitting the boards, execution down the stretch. And if there's one thing we know in Texas it's executin'.

[nkdlunch]

Detroit's offense is overrated.

WTF?? I've never heard the words offense and Pistons in the same sentence. They're a defensive team. They won a championship w/what they got, give them some credit.
