The last two teams with 22-3 start... do you know what happend?

[FreshPrince22]

Uh, no one on that team was injured when they played us. Everyone was fine. I don't think Detroit had injuries that year, they seemed perfect to me when they were kicking the Laker's butts.

Ben had Bone Spurs and Sheed had Plantar Fasciatis (same thing Duncan has now). Those were the 2 biggies. I'm sure there were others though as well. The difference is, unlike most players, if they have a bad game they don't blame it on injuries.

Ahh, ok, sorry about that. That's why I don't care about L.A being injured. Every team has problems in the playoffs.

Ben had bone spurs for the 05 playoffs

Well, thats what I mean, every team has problems. Duncan had bad ankles, Ben had bone spurs, etc, every team has issues. The Pistons le was legit.

[Man In Black]

Every le is legit. The best teams win 4 out of 7 every year.

I was correcting FP.

[leemajors]

i have never heard a spurs player blame his play on injuries. fans take charge of making excuses for their players, regardless of the team.

[MiNuS]

didn't want to read the whole damn arguement. I just want to remind Detroit
that 1 point "W"s hurt alot more that 20 point wins. Especially when its game
5 and it comes from 3 pt land! ... ouch.

I've seen too many of these blow outs by the Pistons on the Spurs in last seasons Finals not to put too much weight on it. You Piston fans better learn
or this second time around it will pinch you in your ass!

AGAIN!


Spurs will gladly take the underdog position. No prob.

He first got them in '03. They seem to act up a few times every year. I know they were already re-aggrivated this year when Yao stomped on his foot, but it seems to have gotten better. I know he's had surgery at least twice to try and fix the problem, but it doesn't seem to matter. It seemed to hurt him the most in '05, but I know it was bugging him a bit in '04. Then again, pretty much every player is banged up by the time the playoffs roll around.

[THE X-FACTOR]

and if sheed doesn't get tossed from every game for being a lunatic, and if the new coach knows what to do in a really big game, and if Prince doesn't pull a disappearing act, etc.

yes Sheed getting tossed in those games cost the Pistons..... can you tell me when that was???!?!

[Oh, Gee!!]

can you tell me when that was???!?!

in the future. 2006 Finals

Yeah, I don't recall Sheed getting tossed from a game since he's been a Piston. Please elaborate.

I remember a Chicago Bulls team that started 22-3.






















They finished at 72-10.


Just sayin....

You know what's funny about that comment?

People have been slamming the Spurs' 1999 Championship as not legit because it was won on a "lockout shortened season." I find that funny because those same people have not said a damn word about the Washington Redskins' Super Bowl XVII championship not being legit, as that, too, was won on a "lockout shortened season!"
