    With the Pistons improving their record to 36-5 with a 95-89 win over the Grizzlies, are we seeing the NBA Version of the Fab Five?

    Ben Wallace, Rasheed Wallace, Rip Hamilton, Tayshaun Prince, And Chauncey Billups have all played all 41 games this season and are unstoppable

    Do you consider these guys to be better than the Michigan Fab 5?

    Are you kidding? They're all seasoned NBA players. Of course they're better. As are the vast majority of all NBA starting lineups, if not all of them.

    Talent-wise, obviously they are better, but the original Fab 5 had a bigger impact on the game than this starting unit.

    They never won the NCAA championship, right? What impact are you referring to?

    Without a doubt they can have a name like the Fab 5. I think it`s safe to say they have the best starting lineup in the game.

    I think what he's trying to say is are the Pistons dominating this leauge like the Fab Five dominated college basketball for a year. In which case I would have to say yes they are. This team does not look like they can be stopped in one game let alone a seven game series in the playoffs.
