    Everybody loves to go right back to the LA series last year with respect to the 2-0 to 2-2 thing. People seem to forget that the Spurs did this against Seattle this season and still won the series. Is it going to be easy? no. As good as the Spurs were in games 1 & 2 is how bad they have been in games 3 & 4. You keep handing the ball over to the defending champs and they are going to run it down your throat. Getting beat is bad enough but aiding in the process is inexcusable. Not taking away anything from the Pistons...they have played their asses off these last two games and have deserved and earned these wins but the Spurs have assisted in that as well.

    Believe it or not we were 2-2 with the Nets the last time we won the le.

    Detroit has already lost more games than they lost in last years final...

    this cheerleading stuff though...the Spurs will either have the heart to win this or else they won't...all the cheerleading in the world on this forum isn't going to change whether or not they are the stuff of champions...

    What does the season tell you?

    The problem with your reasoning is that Detroit is >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Seattle.

    The Detroit Pistons are not the Seattle Sonics, Detroit is on a whole higher level.

    Even though the series was tied up with Seattle, we all knew we would still win.

    Detroit is a whole different story.

    Problem is we showed up in NJ in '03. Won one in their building.

    Problem is we had the last shot to win in Seattle in Game 3.

    We've got our asses handed to us these last 2 games in Det

    Pistons played last two games like they were "must-win" games. Spurs played like they might waltz right to the trophy if they played the game at all. Guess what, it isn't that shocking. Get real, it ain't a series 'til somebody loses on home court. Still got one more chance.

    There is no correlation between SAS and Seattle to SAS to LAL. This is a whole new series and there is no predictability to this series from looking at the others.

    The point is, still, to never give up, regardless of opponent.

    Yes but Detroit is not Seattle. Detroit is a much better experienced team. I don't know if the Spurs have it in them but I sure hope they do.

    nice to know people still aren't listening.

    The Spurs were getting beat up in games 3 and 4 in that series and we had a lot of the same "woe is me, its over" crap.

    I am not comparing Seattle to Detroit....Detroit is wayyyyy better. The fact is that they blew a 2-0 lead. When they went back to playing Spurs basketball they won two more. Its not going to be easy, like Ginofan said, its the Finals...its not supposed to be easy. If the Spurs play like they are capable, they are unbeatable. They got rattled early in Game 3 and went into one of their trademark funks. Then in Game 4, the same thing happened and they did the whole "here we go again" and gave up. When the Spurs take care of the ball, play smart and don't look to the refs to bail them out, they are the best team in the league. Game 5 is going to be hostile and nasty. The Pistons smell blood in the water and like the champs they are, they have been taking advantage of it. The Pistons have been aggressive and never looked back. The Spurs need to match that aggression and not panic or give up when things get bad. Stay patient, make good decisions and play Spurs basketball and they can come home up 3-2. Continue to play tentative and hesitant....they will get their asses handed to them again.
