Didn't the Spurs win that series?
all that matters is the final outcome.
Didn't that weak team beat the Spurs twice in the Finals?Those powerhouse Nets have to be top ten ever to make it to the Finals! They were something magical!

You think Det is full of white trash? Maybe thugs and gangsters but not white trash.let's see, if I had to pick between a city full of happy mexicans drinkin tequila and dancing and a garbage dump of a city full of depressed white trash who stink....
Simon Vato! I pick SA
I pick the D. Hollar!!!
If this were a city vs. city matchup...this might have relevance.
The problem is that the Spurs' offense is a tad bit better than the Pistons' offense...and the Spurs' defense is slightly better than the Pistons'.
I'm not sure where/when this Parker as awful jumpshooter legend was born but Piston fan will be in for a rude awakening if they let Tony shoot the open J.Parker will not be able to penetrate until he proves he can hit the J. Which if he is on- Spurs are in good shape, if he is off- the Pistons will lay back and take away the penetration and stop the Spurs.
Yet, of course, the mighty Piston offense will somehow manage to score against the best defense in basketball.You can always throw it in to Duncan, but Det will deny him the ball or he will get his at the rest of your teams expense. The Shaq D. Pistons will play Manu and Duncan like they played Shaq and Wade or Shaq and Kobe. We will see if you are truly mor ethan a two man team.
Right.
Moral victories don't count, Piston fan.
No need to double Shaq, no need to double Duncan
Sure, but that wasn't his point.
A weak team took 2 from the NBA champion. If you call the Pistons a fluke, what the do you call that?
Please don't double Duncan...
no need to stay in the series.No need to double Shaq, no need to double Duncan
The Pistons' offense was ranked 17th in the NBA for team efficiency. For every 100 posessions, they scored 103.6 points. The Spurs were 6th in the league at 105.7. A difference of 2.1.
On defense, the Pistons were ranked 3rd in the NBA, giving up 98.7 points for every 100 posessions. The Spurs were first, giving up 96.5. A difference of 2.2.
You might take this to mean that the margin of difference between the Spurs' and Pistons' offenses is the same as the margin between their defenses.
Exactly.
.4 anyone?
I call that a championship. Sorry if your inferiority complex saddled ass can't handle that.
no .
Put single coverage on Duncan.
See how well that worked for Phoenix....
what do you expect from people from detroit? Riots at the game, bomb threats, riots after victories. It's one of the worst places in america.
Hasn't TD himself said that Sheed is one of the only guys in the NBA to give him trouble?
Exactly.
.4 anyone?what is next....asterisk smack?
Det is a lot better than the PHX five.
I'm with you on that .4 bull , it's a big excuse.
Yeah...in 1999.
"trouble" != "contain", Piston fan.
Maybe Sheed will glare at Duncan real mean like. Yeah.
its called having respect for one's opponent, doesn't mean he still can't have a good series. oh im sorry.....fekz already said "having class was overrated" never mind.Hasn't TD himself said that Sheed is one of the only guys in the NBA to give him trouble?
Please, I've been to your fair city. It is pretty much Det on the border.
Then can we end with the Lakers without Malone stuff? There are no flukes in a 4 round, 7 game championship series.
In the NCAA single elimination games, yes there are flukes. Not in a series and not in the NBA...
The Lakers with Malone were a much better team than the one without it. Especially when you consider he was giving them 40 minutes a night and his backup was Brian Cook or whoever.
Nice try...its not on the border.Please, I've been to your fair city. It is pretty much Det on the border.
