    Hi,

    First of all i must say, good luck to the Spurs, Im a Pistons fan but i wish you guys and the fans the best. It should be a great series.

    I was excited to see posts by fans of an intelligent nature unlike what i saw on the Heat message boards.

    Everything was like Pistons suck, Pistons are a fluke etc.

    I look forward to reading and sharing my opinions with fellow fans as the series goes forward.

    Please look the other way while I stroke my ego for a moment.

    Hey thanks! So far I'm very impressed with the Pistons organization and fanbase from top to bottom. First, you've got a world class owner who hooked Spurs Nation up big time by giving Tim a lift home after injuring his ankle. An expensive lift, too! Also, you Pistons fans seem knowledgable and classy. Finally, I love Kid Rock's latest album and since he's a fan, that's all good too!

    Still, Go Spurs!

    The Pistons are actually may favorite Eastern Conf. team, and have been since the bad boy days.

    I think the Spurs would have had an easier time playing Miami, but I am glad they're playing Detroit. It will be a great matchup between 2 great teams.

    I was a big Pistons fan back in the days of Zeke, although part of me never quite forgave them for taking Sean Elliot and giving us Rodman, however briefly that might have been. With that said, I'm thrilled that the Pistons are in the finals because maybe (just maybe) some of the idiot coaches in the league will wake up and say, "Well if there's two great defensive teams in the finals, maybe defense is a good thing." If nothing else I can't wait to see David Stern bite his tongue in half while trying to keep from cursing on national TV when he has to give the trophy to either of these teams.

    Welcome to the board. It looks like most of the Pistons visitors are on par with the nice folks from the Phoenix board who dropped by for the last series. I hope the civility remains throughout, but hey, it's the finals.

    Seems like there is a larger majority of pistons fans that are knowledgable about bball when compared to bandwagon *cough* , I mean Suns fans.

    Give it some time, there will be some trolls showing up but I dont think the Pistons fans have any kind of hatred for the Spurs like they did the Heat and Shaq. We are a bit disgruntled about continuously getting no respect.

    Already several ESPN commentators are picking the Spurs but that's okay. Detroit thrives on that kind of stuff. We are relaxed even when we are down in a series as can be seen against Indy this year and Miami. Miami had us down by both 2-1 and 3-2 but we still prevailed.

    I watched a few of the Spurs games against the Suns and i was like oh man, whoever comes out of the East is going to have their hands full. At the time even thinking that Detroit and Miami might not be able to beat them however after the way my Pistons have played the last two games i believe they can hang. Im thinking this series will go 6 games and i think the Pistons will win.

    Time will tell.

    Oddly, I too am picking the Spurs. . . and I think it will go 6 games.

    Detriot's all right. I like the defensive minded play. I rooted for them last year (and not just out of hatred for Shakobe), and was pleased they won. I wanted this match up all year.

    It's been a great playoff season, hasn't it? Coming down to the four best teams in the league, and arguably the two best teams fighting it out. If nothing else, how cool to have the last two champs fighting it out, huh? Can't wait for Thursday (so much knitting to do before then!).

    I'd like to add my sentiments to those of May the Best Team Win. I didn't join the Heat board because it was a lot of mud slinging on both sides, but it seems pretty friendly here so far. Let's see if it lasts into the start of the series!

    Don't bet on it! Just wait till LB mentions anything about Manu flopping or Bruce playing "dirty" all will break loose!

    Yeah...you guys I guess seem like the best fans yet...the Pacer fans were hilarous...So blind to reality. Miami fans, were fun to mess with, but they just got way to upset? and by the way...just like all the jobber suns fans were was all these Miami fans last year?

    Well it comes down to the top 2 teams in the league FINALLY! Again like I said earlier...LA was a joke, and it was a that we had to play them... THANK YOU DEREK FISHER!

    My friend, You are going to be very disappointed by a lot of Spurs fans when they get into their "Pistons suck" mode. They simply didn't know who to vent their ire on until the Pistons beat the Heat.

    I think Wild bill is trying say that not all Spurs fans are as intelligent as you are giving them credit for. I would say he is wrong. Most Spurs fans who know their basketball know that this will not be an easy series and will not simply say "Pistons Suck" a lot of us are better than that.

    Does anyone else find this love fest between opposing fans to be very unnatural and a little disturbing? () = )

    It was similar to before the WCF...then the ball went up and all broke loose....I imagine that will happen again!

    It reminds me movies like Braveheart and Kingdom of Heaven where the opposing commanders ride out before the battle and chat rather amiably and then everyone gets hacked and sliced and killed and .
