If I'm Piston Fan, I'm not worried about HCA against any team except the Spurs.
Really, if you face the Mavs in the Finals, do you think it'll matter whether or not you have it?
Oh come on Spurs please beat DAL tmr night!
We need your help this time..

It won't matter since the mavs are great on the road anyway. Good point.
If the Mavs somehow win the WC, Dirk will set a Finals record for airballs.
Let's not grasp at straws now. The Nuggets are finally coming together it seems
To add insult to injury, Darko is looking great tonight against Golden State..
12 points (6 of 7 shooting), 9 boards, 2 assists, 2 blocks.
Damnit all...
Well if you mean not touching the rim I agree. Dirk's shots are as pure as you get.
Dumars got lucky in finding a gem in some players but trading Darko has to be the stupidest thing I've seen in a while. At least get something other than that bum Cato guy. You also lost your backup point guard.
I think the definition of an airball is a missed shot that doesn't touch the rim, net, or backboard. There are many fine basketball dictionaries out there to gain basketball knowledge.
Don't talk about things you know nothing about....
he's right though.
Well honestly I can't say I am not worried about DAL. It was obvious that the pistons and the spurs are two best teams in the league in the first two months of this season. But now the reality is: DAL is playing very well. We can't be sure they will play like this in the playoffs but we also can't say they won't. I think most pistons fans didn't care much when we lost to the DAL by 37 points earier because we didn't count them as our playoffs opponent. But after we beat the spurs twice this year and after we realize the DAL has just one more loss than us, I start to consider them dangerous. I still can't figure out what was the problem we lost like that. Let's see what will happen when we play them later in March.
But don't get me wrong. I am not saying DAL>SA. I always respect the spurs. I only root for the spurs other than the pistons. And I really wanna see the pistons and the spurs in the finals again this year.
To all DAL fans on this board. I respect your team and I consider DAL, SA AND DET as the best teams right now. But don't be too y before the DAL prove they can suceed in the playoffs. History tells the truth not the current regular season record.
wasn't Darko Detroit's victory cigar? What did you think they'd get out of it.
Dude I watch a lot of Pistons games and I think it wasn't a smart move. Many of your Piston fans agree except for that gay Pistonfan1 guy. I didn't know the Pistons were so bothered by salary that they trade their backup point guard and future center for a bum. Give me a reason why this was a good trade? The only thing I can think of is after the season when they have to lock themselves up for signing Ben Wallace and Tayshaun Prince. Detroit's salary will be so concentrated on those 5 players that they won't have a bench.
What other deals were out there? Darko was going to leave next year anyway...
You know the Ps won't go over the cap(luxury tax) because of Davidson, so he really had no choice if he wanted to sign Ben/Chauncey. It isn't like Joe has free reign like Isiah does...
Didnt' know the 3pt shot was in Kenyon Martin's repertoire... Isn't he more of an inside player? To be frank, I've never watched him play...
Detroit will be right there at the end, keep talkin .
Game 3 and 4 of the NBA Finals will be in Detroit.
Miami is getting their together. I am starting to doubt if Detroit will get to the finals.
Oh no! Our lead is only ONE AND A HALF GAMES! IT'S OVER!!!
Denver wanted this one bad, and took it. It happens. <yawn>. I'm worried about the inside game, but I've been worried about that since November and the Stones have gone 47-10 with that "soft" middle I've been worrying about.
I'll worry about the Mavs sometime later, maybe; thus far, they've done about as well against the Pistons as ATLANTA did after one game year (eeek! Fear the mighty HAWKS!!!). The sky is not falling, the end is not near, the Finals will be Pistons/Spurs, all is still right in the basketball world.
Denver beating Detroit?
No surprise. If there was a vbookie I would win seeing many ppl loose.
Unfortunately Kori didn't put that in the vbooks.
In my bservation I see not that good Det frontcourt defense tyhey are leting the others big guys to rebound. Where is ben Wallace?
But...I'm happy for Darko, glad to see he's doing pretty well in Orlando.
Firstly, the stupid move was in trading Darko. We will regret this for the next 10 years at least.
Secondly, I fail to see how getting rid of him and Arroyo in exchange for Cato and a protected first is a good trade. Darko was a #2 pick, and we gave up a first rounder in acquiring Arroyo. And all we got in return is a guy who will probably not play except for maybe 5 minutes here and there against Shaq.
thats a big F in my book. If getting rid of Darko was in the plans all along, we could have taken up Atlnata on their Darko for Harrington offer. At least then we'd get a proven commodity in return. He could have definetly helped us this year, or we could have traded him. Either way, he has more value than Cato and their 1st. And when you consider Dumars and his drafting record, are you really all that excited to see who he drafts?
Miami is going to be a tough out no matter how they play in the regular season...
I sure hope it's Det vs Sas in the finals, but it isnt because I fear the Mavs. I just like the Spurs alot more than the Mavs and I'd rather have a rematch of last years finals!
I'm not gonna worry about the Mavericks beating the Pistons until I see both teams on the court IN THE FINALS and see something to be worried about...And that's quite aways away as of now.
Any team with Shaq and Wade on them is a threat. Regardless of their regular season record. Wade is CLUTCH, and as we well know he can really burn you if he gets hot.
