Yes and if the Spurs had to face the Mavericks ? you wouldn't be here either![]()
Teams the Spurs faced to get to the finals
Denver
Seattle
Phoenix
Teams the Pistons faced to get to the finals
Philadelphia
Indiana
Miami
If Philadelphia were to play Denver in a series, who would have won?
If Seattle would have played Indiana in a series, who would have won?
If Phoenix would have played an injured Miami in a series, who would have won?
From these answers you can now get a pretty good idea of what would have happened if the Spurs faced the Pistons Gauntlet of Disaster, and if the Pistons had stepped over with the big boys and played some REAL playoff teams....
The pistons and spurs are very closely matched, it really can go either way.
The spurs have been going to war ever since GAME 1 of the first round!
The pistons had to wait an entire month to finally get into a series that would test them, and even then shaq and wade were ed up...
Pistons are going to drop the first game at LEAST and not know what hits them...then the real series will start in game 2
Pistons have not faced a team like this since the regular season....they're ed because they are unready.

That would have been a good series, too bad ABC didn't get what they wanted. [sarcasm]If Phoenix would have played an injured Miami in a series, who would have won?
LOL......Another person who doesn't get it. Don't worry there's loads of people just like you.Pistons are going to drop the first game at LEAST and not know what hits them...then the real series will start in game 2

all it would have taken was bennett salvatore to call Mavericks ball when 1 second previous Dirk was holding the ball out of bounds
LOL
You didn't read my post.
you guys played the philadelphia seventysixers in the first round of the playoffs and even lost one of those games!
the seventy sixers!!!!!!!
What is there not to get....you guys play in an inferior conference and the pistons are headed towards the beat down that they should have received last year
Would those people happen to be everyone who isn't a Pistons homer?
How about everyone who isn't throwing a chair or cup of beer at NBA players.
How about everyone who isn't a fat walking onto the court looking to fight an NBA player.
Would it happen to be them?

Now now, BdB lets not stoop to the piston fan level![]()
That was the best part of the brawl J O'Neal just leveled that guy and his bag went flying.
Den > Phil
Sea > Ind
Pho < Mia
Am I right?
none of that matters...its all about now. We Spurs fans got the same crap in 2003 when Dirk was hurt and we didn't like that either. The Spurs had no business dropping two games to Seattle...by your logic, Seattle is better than Phoenix and that is not true.
who played who means . it's all out the window now.
Every game is up for grabs imo. I don't put much value in homecourt, but i'm still glad our Spurs have it. I think we'll need at least one of those last 2 home games...maybe both...
What will it come down to? same thing as always in tight games...4th qtr execution...and the only thing i'm worried about is that the Spurs got used to the Suns D. It will be tough, and it's going to come down to who has the balls to get the job done when EVERY possession counts.
With limited open 3's in this series? I don't expect alot of breathing room...and no lead is safe...we saw how detroit took it to miami yesterday when it counted and we've seen how detroit can come back from big deficits against our own Spurs, see reg season game 1 this year...As long as everyone stays healthy (knock on wood) then i'm content to let this play out and enjoy every minute along the way...
and if/when the Spurs lose a 2nd game to detroit...no jumping please.
Spurs will bring the O'brien back HOME to SA. Believe that.
Phoenix vs. Miami would have been a great finals. Too bad NBA doesn't have a series for 3d place![]()
Wow. Who guards Shaq?
Who guards anybody?![]()
Say it 3 times, it will sound even better to ya. I have already said it somewhere, the Pistons (it is an issue they should get rid of) play down to their compe ions level. They have had problems getting up for lousey teams all year. San Antionio IS NOT a lousey team and the Piston WILL NOT have any issues getting up for them. To judge who played who to get here is just a poor comparision.
Miami's defense isn't good enough to stop the Suns from scoring. The Suns would of ran Shaq out of the building gasping for air.
That would have been their defense.
who guards amare?
Pistons play down to compe ion's level. OK. But Spurs level is up there! Pistons will need a 10foot ladder to play UP to Spurs level.
I bet most of you people picked the miami heat to beat the Pistons. And then after we defeat them, we get the "They got an easy way to the finals". Pretty hypocritical.
Indiana and Miami are good basketball teams.
Actually most in here picked Detroit to advance and are quite aware that Indiana and Miami are tough clubs. Pretty prejuducial of you. You can go back and check older threads if you wish. We aren't the arrogant Lakers just coming off of 3 les.
Going to 7 games with a injured Wade in the final 2.
And people who picked Miami to win were crazy...![]()

It went 7 GAMES! Dumbass.
It wasn't a clean sweep. It wasn't in 5. The Pistons didn't end that series looking clearly better, they ended that series barely escaping.
Spurs in 4...
