Pistons v. Pacers

[MavKikiNYC]

Here's wondering if instead of a G2 Pistons' win, Rasheed shouldn't be guaranteeing more than 4 pts.

Halftime: Game 2

RASHEED WALLACE 18 1-10 0-1 0-0 3 1 1 2

The more I watch of the Western Conference and Eastern Conference Finals, the more and more I slump down in my seat and vomit blood as I think about the wasted season brought on by Nellie's unintelligent coaching decisions.

26 total blocks is BS. I saw atleast 10 fouls on those blocked shots.

But the one by Teyshawn Prince was just pure CLASSIC. That was awesome.

that block was unbelievable! So clutch, so amazing, I can't believe he caught up!

What ESPN and others won't report: 'Sheed's first words to the crowd after the buzzer: "Told y'all motherf***ers! I told y'all!"

The block was nice but what made the play was the half-ass way that Miller was going to the bucket.

That Prince block was one of the best defensive plays I've ever seen. The timing had to be absolutely perfect...and it was. The closing speed he showed was unbelievable.

Yes, Miller should have dunked, Miller slowed down, but it was still an amazing close out on the play, and it saved the game for Detroit.

Sure, it was a huge..big time clutch play by Prince..but miller has got to be smarter than that.

Speaking of.....


Notice Oliver Miller's rim-rocker the other day?

Detroit should be able to win both of them at home to go up 3-1, they're a lot better defensive team and just a little worse on offense. The Detroit crowd will get them the shots and turnovers they need...

[MikeB]

I think Detroit will be a little satisfied with this win and Indiana will be the more focused team and steal game 3. This looks like a long series to me. Very long and low scoring...unless some team just gets super hot I doubt the score ever reaches the 80s.

[MavsFanatik33]

Is the lack of offense b/c of the hard work on the other end or are they both just not decent offensive scoring teams?

[MikeB]

A little of both.
I think both teams could score IF they played more uptempo...however they both want to milk the clock and shoot the ball in the last 5 seconds. The deliberate nature of their offenses along with the defensive pressure that both teams provide cause the games to be in the 70s.

[MavsFanatik33]

I have to say, unlike last year, there is some actual good teams in the east (Pistons/Pacers)

They both have a chance to win this year, unlike the last 2 year's Nets

[MikeB]

They both have a chance against the T'Wolves...neither have much of a shot against LA. Ben and Rasheed can't gaurd Shaq. Jermaine and Foster can't guard Shaq. Plus to beat LA you will need to put the biscuit in the basket and both of these teams are not real good at doing that.
