EVERYONE said the pistons were gonna lose. </div>yeah, i remember that. i thought that too, but i don't think anyone can figure it's in the bag because none of these three teams left is the same as last season. <div class="quote_poster">Quoting arice89:</div><div class="quote_post">And Billups is better than Parker.</div>better at what? ppg? no. rpg? no. apg? no. fg%? no. he's better at 3pt%, blocks, and ft%. but he's not going to keep up with parker, and he's not going to get a lot of posting parker up, manu will probably guard billups.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting GiantMidget:</div><div class="quote_post">Agreed,but Ginobili is better than Hamilton.Backcourt matchup is a wash.</div> In terms of the Manu/Rip match-up I think at worse Rip is a wash with Manu. I don't think Manu is better. Rip is the Pistons go to guy on offense and is a big time playoff performer. So the way Manu is playing I think they are very close. Just as Billups and Parker are, with Billups getting the edge due to his big game experience and his overall strength in the post.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Nylex:</div><div class="quote_post">I have the Spurs beating the Pistons in 7 on my bracket.</div> Change the Pistons to the Heat and you are right.
Wow, its not like Miami has 14 freethrows while Detroit has 3. Wade has shot more free's than detroits whole team. Tell me this isnt an issue with the integrity of the NBA.
What Now What Now? Youre Right, The Heat Are A Lot Better Than The Pistons. Oh, And The Pistons Won Because The Heat Had So Many Injuries Right? Miami Had 24 Free Throws While Detroit Had 15. A Few Of Those Were On Purpose. Dwayne Wade Was Injured - Well, I Doubt He Wouldve Done Much Better Than 20 Points. I Cant Wait To See Him Next Year Crying About Fouls. Bottom Line- The Pistons Will Not Get Credit Simply Because The Heat Had A Lot Of Injuries. No One Mentions Rip Hamilton (the Pistons Leading Scorer) Being Injured. The Refs Tried To Give Miami The Game, Look At All Those Awful Calls. What About Rasheed Now? Still A Cry Baby? Nice prediction HEAD BUSSA! Cool name too.
