Ouch

At any rate, 1st quarter of the 1st game's just finished. There's been some nice playing on each team's behalf. The Spurs appear to be having a bit of trouble passing because the Pistons have been keeping them on their toes... And statistically they've had more turnovers (4 in 4 minutes). Nonetheless, I think this game will be a close one, the Spurs are putting up a good fight.

I say Pistons in 7.

I agree
but Spurs in 6
Im not a Pistons fan at all!! Sry!!

[santosh]

Yeah, I am watching the game too. It appears that the Spurs might be a little rusty. But then again, the the NBA likes to have as many games as possible so that they can make more money. But I still hold on to my comment about Detroit. They will win.

And as you can see the officiating is still crap. YAY FOR CRAP OFFICIATING!!!

[sure_smile]

i'm still depressed about the pistons/heat game! *sobs, runs away*

I don't like basketball. But like every sport, I follow the finals.

The Spurs have won enough championships... but the Pistons won last year. I can't decide. Who wants to pick for me?

After game 1, it was obvious that the Pistons had lost a majority of the momentum they had in the first two quarters. I think much of this would be due to the fact that the Spurs have had quite a few more days off, not that I'm trying to make an excuse for the Pistons or anything, but they did. By second half, there was no energy left.

The Pistons still have the motivation. If they can pull off a defense like they had in the first half yesterday for the next game, they're good to go, because that defense is just about the best out there.

And I'm not going to say anything about officiating, lest I get sued $20,000 by the NBA

I still stand by Pistons in 7.

[Ms.Demeanor]

Psh, Pistons all the way.

Both teams are good defensively, so it will be a close playoff series, that's for sure. The Pistons are gonna get it though.
Booyah!

[JoeXIII'007]

Pistons lost last night. Was it because I fell asleep?
Anywho, definitely watch the officiating, and critique it. That alone may help unravel why the series turns out the way it will. It may just have last time for the Pistons. You never know.

Hey now... *smacks upside head*

Yes, Pistons are getting outdone in every single area possible. Yes, the announcer called the Spurs a team and the Pistons a group of individuals. Yes, we're down by... uh... many points

They've come back from this far a deficit before though, so we'll see...

[santosh]

Are those ref's blind? That is one of the worst displays of officiating I have seen in a while. Not just this game but Game 1 too. Maybe it is just me, but I fl that it was horrendous.

[xzvrw2]

The officiating has been bad both last series and this one.

The Pistons gave up before the series started. Obi-Wan Ginolbli is unstoppable, Duncan don't care any more so hes only scoreing 18, they are making Horry look like Jordan, Parker is looking like a god, They are making Bowen look like the best thing since sliced bread, and they played Arroyo when they brought the lead down to 8-that deffinatly means they don't want to win this year. When McDyess is our leading scorer then we know we are going to lose. When we take out our startes and put in Ham, Darko, Dupree, Arroyo, and McDyesse, all at the same time, then you know we gave up. It is over for the Pistons. Spurs in 6.
