Pistons vs Bulls

[mabber]

Oh , I almost forgot they also landed Tyrus Thomas....Baby Bulls are going to be exciting to watch next season. I was already rooting for them last season..!

Yeah, I enjoyed watching them play last season as they play really hard all game long. They should be tough this coming season.

I have already said my opion but the bulls shot them self in the foot by giving Ben that much money. I dont see them coming close to the ECF and I still see the Pistons making it to the ECF. Why do people think Ben leaving distroys the Pistons team? We still have Billups, Sheed,Rip,Tayshan. And off the bench we still got Hunter, Mcdyess, delfeno(he will get a lot more time now bank on it.) Im sure Delk will stay. No way has the Pistons fallen out of le contention, people make this whole issue way overrated then it really is.

the piston are very good but they arent le contenders because even if they get lucky and somehow make it to the finals they can not beat ANYBODY coming out of the west, you cant just let ben wallace leave for nothing. your bench is one of the worst benches in the entire league, they will probably win 50 games but with that bench you cant win in the playoffs. you couldnt win it all with ben so how the do you expect to win it without him?

We have won it all with Ben.

And during the course of the season whos the say Detroit would trade some bench players for some better players and then win again this season? This whole Ben Wallace thing doesnt really change a whole lot, sure it our defense is weaker but our other 4 guys are so underrated by playing defense.

And I dont know how you can say they cant beat anyone in the west. Anything is possible. One guy doesnt make a team and I still think the Pistons are in le contention.

I think the Pistons could possibly make it back to the ECF's but that's about it. I just have to think that they will miss Wallace terribly on defense and on the boards. He was a big reason why the other Piston guys were good defenders. They always knew he had their back. Yeah, you still have 4 really good players but what are the odds that they make it thru another season w/o any injuries. Last season was absolutely amazing for the Pistons in terms of so few injuries (compared to all the other top teams). Ya never know but I'd be really surprised if the Pistons made it thru the east.

Flip " I think I am god's gift to coaching" Saunders is only going to cause more issues with Sheed and the rest of that team. Flip is a ty coach and they ought to beg larry brown to come back

The Pistons have a bench...it all depends if Flip plays them. When he played them, they performed. None of that he pulled in the playoffs with inconsistent minutes and dnp's.
