They can't shoot, except for the occassional hot streak. Miami is super dinged up and still detroit can't handle them.
Has anyone been watching Detroit this year? They struggle so much on the offense it is painful to watch. Billups looks like he lost a step. Mike James is gone and Arrojo sucks. Hunter lost a step. Campbell can't move except he can guard Shaq. This years team is not as good overall and will lose.

The are inconsistent on offense. When they are hitting their shots, though, look out!
Miami is having something to say about Detroit's discombobulation.
You may be so used to watching the Suns v Spurs or Mavs, you are spoiled.
yeah, the thing is I don't want to play Miami if their defense is this good, I sincerley hope that the problems are just Detroit's offense.
detroit in one game against Utah this year didn't score a FG in the 4th qtr.
The Detroit Pistons and The Eastern Conference for me are unwatchable period!
but like that old cliche goes until someone unseats the champs they're still the champs. i'm not endorsing them by any means, but i just can't watch them. watchin the grass grow in my backyard is more entertaining to me than they are.
I dont think Miami's defense is that strong, and I dont think Detroit's is either.
Detroit allowed alot of easy shots from the Heat tonight, the Heat just loved to settle for stupid shots....
Hopefully Pop is concocting a plan up, Im sure he is.....
The way the series is going it looks like he's going to have plenty of time!
Shaq played horrible.
20 and 5.
Miami is playing good defense, but Detroit is flat out sucking.
San Antonio is clearly the better team. Detroit was lucky to get past Miami. I don't know why Detroit isn't bringing up the same intensity as last year. I feel they are not as hungry for a championship.
Detroit is a little overrated. They got a lot of credit for whooping a disfunctional Laker team last year but I'm really starting to believe we beat ourselves. The Pistons work well as a team but when that doesn't work the lack of a superstar on that team is really showing. Ben Wallace is really overrated.
This year Detroit looks like the dysfunctional team. LAL wasn't able to take advantage of Detroits terrible transition defense. You have to run against them like San Antonio is doing.
"Pistons just ain't got it tonight."
Maybe the Championship of the two best teams was held in the West Conference Finals this year.
Making it to the finals two years in a row isnt overrated
winning a game 7 on the road to a team that has shaq whose never lost a game 7 in his career isnt overrated
Shaq guaranteed a le at the beginn of the year too
and so what if they had injuries? thats the worst damn excuse... do u want the pistons to wait for wade to heal or for shaq to heal? should the spurs have waited for rashard lewis to heal when they played the sonics
face it... the pistons are the 2nd best team in the nba and their not overrated
spurs do exactly wat detroit does but only better
SA is clearly the best team in the nba
you've gotten thru all ur series with a breeze... u have an amazing starting 5... great defense... a bench and the most under appreciated player in the league in manu who i personally think is better than wade
This is stupid. They're in the Finals, and they're considered the underdog by most.
What the does overrated mean to you?
Suns would beat the pistons and a healthy Miami team would also. Seattle or Dallas would be an interesting series but Detroit is not great this year.
San Antonio is the best team in the NBA.
Everyone is en led to thinking what they want. And, if you believe Detroit is overrated, that's great for you.
I'll take being overrated and in the NBA finals with a chance to win a championship than being a fan of an eliminated team on another team's message board with ZERO chance at the NBA championship.
At the end of the day, the Detroit Pistons are in the 2005 NBA Finals with the best team in the NBA. Phoenix, Dallas, and Miami are sitting at home watching or out on a lake fishing.
Using the "IF HEALTHY" theory is as bad as Detroit Piston trolls blaming the referees after each loss.
_allas is over rated. Pistons play tough D. Spurs are just on their game. If this was _allas Spurs would be winning by 30.
For your information Dallas actually played some defense this year. They just played some really good teams and were inexperienced along with our coach who made some bad decisions. Howard should've been on Marion and Harris and Daniels should've gotten some minutes.
This is stupid. They're in the Finals, and they're considered the underdog by most.
They were picked by everyone on friday and today to win tonight, if they are an underdog, then they are a very happy underdog.
Everyone from Hubie Brown, to the dude that holds the microphone over the Spurs huddle is rootin for the Pistons.
