Thanks man. You have carried the standard for Pistons fans in here and hopefully you will stick around. The Pistons were worthy champions and never gave an inch!
I saw a few other Pistons congratulating Spurs threads, but I wanted to create my own.
I came onto this board from the beginning of the series, and met a lot of great people, argued with a lot of people, and debated enough to cross the 300 post mark in a mere 7 games.
Amazing game, amazing series. I said before the game that whoever won game 7 deserved to be champs. Well, the Spurs won, and they beat my Pistons flat out. Great work.. and enjoy the parade that you earned. Enjoy the summer of celebration, and always remember where you were when Tim Duncan dished out those two passes for three pointers that sealed your win.
The Spurs are class. The Spurs are what every team in the NBA should be.
I echo Pistons>Spurs. I've been looking forward to this series all year. No Lakers, no Timberwolves, not even the Utah freaking Jazz.
"In order to be the man, you have to BEAT the man", says Rick Flair.
Well, Spurs. You're the man.
Awesome series. As much as my stomach hurts, and I'm completely devestated tonight, I wanted to come onto this board and congratulate you personally.
San Antonio Spurs, 2005 Champions. Well deserved.
Thanks man. You have carried the standard for Pistons fans in here and hopefully you will stick around. The Pistons were worthy champions and never gave an inch!
well said bro.
I'll definitely be around. This series took a *LOT* out of me, as I'm sure it did for every true Spurs and Pistons fan out there.
I'd rather lose to the Spurs than anyone in the league. As much as we're 'mirror images', when you really look back, the Spurs were doing it before the Pistons were, and as much as it sucks to say.. they do it better. Timmy came up when he was needed, and Manu and Horry were just their crazy selves.
Part of me wants to be truly HAPPY for the Spurs, but as you can imagine.. that may take a few days to get this knot out of my stomach. It may have been enhanced by those $2 beers, but hey.. what's a better way to spend a paycheck than to drink your pains away, right?
Congrats again. I'll definitely be around to take the abuse.
Did I hear this correctly? NBA Draft on Tuesday?
No rest for the weary.
You are a classy Fan indeed!!!!! Props to you!
Props to you and to a lot of class Pistons fans here
Detroit became my second favourite team in the league. They have shown heart, skills and talent. We'll meet again in the playoffs next year.
They both deserved the trophy , that's all I can say. The detroit pistons are just too good to not be back in the finals next year.
The thing I like about this thread, on top of the 'thank you's going around, is the fact that there are plenty of them.
I'm glad to see the Piston fans representing tonight. Spurs fans, take my word for it.. this is *NOT* an easy thing to do. I don't WANT to be posting right now, I want to be burying my face in the ground and staying there until the season starts back up.
But it's the right thing to do, and I know a lot of you (ok, maybe not *ALL*) would do the same for us.
Respect is a 2-way road, and you've earned mine.
I'm going to bed.. I work in 7 hours and probably am going to stare at the ceiling above my bed for another 2.
See you all tommorrow.
Congrats guys, I am absolutely heartbroken but after all of the trashtalk I owe you this...good luck in the future and enjoy the Summer, for 12 minutes tonight with the game on the line you simply got it done, and we didn't.
Simply put I am jealous.
I have a lot of pride, that my team is of the elite and will not turn my back on them for one second. they fought and fought and fought, simply got outplayed for the quarter that counted. It was a of a series and I tip my hat of to you guys.
I almost hate that somebody had to lose this series.
I was cheering for the Pistons like they were the Spurs last year, it felt weird to root against them. To be honest, when you took that lead in the 3rd quarter, I was already rehearsing my "Congrats to Pistons" post.
Great job by the Spurs and Pistons. Hope this shows how other teams should act.

Where a buck's enough to see their stuff...at the nudie bar.
Where the music stinks, and they water the drinks...at the nudie bar.
Where the breasts are fake but man do they shake...at the nudie bar.
Where you swear like a sailor, and wish you could nail her...at the nudie bar.
Where you see their butt, and their trap stays shut...at the nudie bar.
Where you can't touch a breast, but you can cave in a chest...at the nudie bar.
Where the beer gives you gas, but the Bundy's kick ass...at the nudie bar
One of the few class Detroit fans that showed up here. Hope you stick around.
Way to represent WDB.
I was diving for loose balls with Timmy tonight...how about you?
Congratulations Spurs. SPAM lives. You gotta believe!
Detroit is absolute class! You'll be back I'm sure.
I always wanted to ask, are WayDowntownBang and FromWayDowntown like, related?
Great series buddy... I'm pretty sure we will be here again next year....
ladiesman
Couldn't agree more with that.
The Piston's are the only team I've ever felt just a little bit badly for when the Spurs have beaten them. Don't get me wrong. I hated them with a passion equivalent only to that I feel for the Lakers, because they were the biggest obstacle this team has faced since playing the 2001 Lakers in the WCF. But man, they're a special team and and they gave the Spurs the greatest fight they've ever had to go against. The difficulty of this le makes it so sweet for me, just as I'm sure your's last year did. No fan can ever forget just how rare a le is, and how much work a team has to put in to get there.
The Spurs and Pistons will be the Lakers/Celtics of this decade. A nightmare for Stern, but great for those of us who appreciate this brand of basketball.
Classy act WayDowntownBang.
Mucho props.
hmmm, to the pistons, go much props. class all around yes. Good Game.
tile next we meet. Go mudda in Spurs!
waydowntown...I'd just like to tell you to go fuc...
Just kidding...
Your team scared the out of me...right up until the final seconds of this game. I never felt like I did during the other les runs...I was never certain the Spurs were going to win and your team is some tough mofos.
I had you pegged for a guy who was more interested in taking veiled shots at the Spurs than talking basketball...I did not think you would show up to give props...You proved me wrong and you and your team both deserve huge props.
I was wrong and I apologize for being a .
