I was watching game 2 tonight and I was soo annoyed at the announcers...I mean, come on, the Pistons were up by 10 with 3 minutes left and the announcers kept saying "All the pressure is on the Pistons...the Heat have played a great, great game. Great supporting cast, etc. etc." I mean, COME ON!! I repeatedly heard the announcers say the Pistons are stupid for doing this, that, and yet, they won! I'm not even a Pistons fan and I noticed this. ESPN should hire better commentators .

Anyways, I have no idea what you're talking about. They were fawning over the Pistons all night.
Veovis are you joking??... There wasn't any bias whatsoever, of course they're gonna say the pressures on the Pistons, the Heat scored 17 points in less than 2 minutes.....of course theyre going to recognize that. And know one said the Heat played a great great game by the way...
When the Heat were on the 17 point run within 3 minutes, the pressure was on the Pistons to still secure the win, because they let the Heat back into the game.
i agree what announcer said.. not only because heat scored 17 points in less than 2 minutes, if they lose Game 2 again, they would be down 0-2 head toward Miami....
The announcers are just providing motivation for the Pistons. The whole media does it actually (or most of it). Truth is, no one wants the Heat to win. I think the media has made that pretty well known since the trade and I think a lot of people/fans don't like the Heat.

I think the majority of people here would rather the Heat win for a couple of reasons. a) They are Heat fans, b)They don't want to see the same Pistons in the championship AGAIN, c) Dwayne Wade is the best player by far in that series, d)They just hate the Pistons.

I picked Heat to win the whole thing after the Walker and J-Wil trades. I love Wade. He is one of the best superstars in the game and yet he is so underrated. I think he has accomplished a lot...yet LeBron gets all the media hype in the world for hitting one stinking gamewinner in his 3rd year in the league. Oh yea I hated Shaq when he was next to Kobe, but next to Wade he is a lot less smug so he is okay.
