Good bye LeChoke.</div><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Witness the dethroning of "THE KING"</div>what the hell....are you guys serious? The kid is 21 years old, in his third season out of high school, had a triple double in the series and took his cavs against the best team in the NBA to a 7 game series. And what the hell does de-throwning mean? He was never on top of anything to begin with. I am thoroughly impressed with the Cavs, the Pistons days at the top are numbered. I don't trust Flip Saunders. This series was not worthless, it was a big accomplishment to take such a good team 7 games.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" Can we not have fun with a close out win? Who cares if he's 21 - we're happy we won - we have a right to celebrate.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" Finally it's over! We should've closed them out earlier. I was hoping on watching a game 1 today vs. the Heat but instead we had to watch a worthless game 7 blowout against the Cavs but finally it shuts up Lebron bandwagoners, at least I think...
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" Great job on holding a 4th seed Cavalier team to 23 points,defense was good but we all know the Heat are on a different level then the Cavs.No the Pistons are not a better team then the Heat and we will see that as soon as the series starts.As far as beating Shaq,not gonna happen Ben can't take him by himself and if they double we'll have Antoine hitting shots from the outside for us.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" Hello? We can have Sheed', Ben, Dice, Davis, and Cato on Shaq. Those are the main reasons we aqquired Cato and Davis.. besides Ben wont guard Shaq all the time its gonna be a rotation.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" None of those can guard Shaq,expect Dwyane to have his usual big games,you'll see your Pistons losing as soon as they start playing against us.You can't guard Dwyane or Shaq there just too good no matter who is covering them.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" doesnt it go:"Na na na na,Na na na naHe-e-eyGoodbye"?But whatever.. I was rooting for the upset, damnit, but I dont really care because I dont really like either team, I just always root the underdog

I believe he will spread the floor for Miami and start knocking down the 3's off of Wade's penetration and Shaq's passes to the perimeter. Williams will be bothered by Chauncey and Payton is too damn old. Posey is an overrated defender, I've never seen him shut anybody down. Anderson will get garbage points off the bench, and Mourning still wont be much of a factor in the playoffs.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" Miami doesn't do well against the Western Conference but this year they have done well against Detroit. Every game was close.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" How can you all blame this on Lebron? I am not sticking up for him or against him. His team put up a one hell of a fight against the best team in the league. He has one bad half and you blame the whole series on him? If it wasn't for him the Cavs would of gotten swept and lost by 25 points like every game. Give the guy some friggen credit.

Only 1 was really close thats the only game the Heat won with Dwade scoring Heats last 17 pts.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" March 22 was close until the free throws at the end. The Heat are playing their best ball right now of all season so the Pistons should be worried.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" Congrats on the win guys. It was great embarrassing the Pistons, the so called number one team in the NBA. Because, I mean, this wasn't even supposed to be like this, the Cavs weren't supposed to make a series out of this. Like I said going into this game, no matter what happens, the Cavs already won. You guys have nothing to celebrate about. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Witness the dethroning of "THE KING"</div>Lol, it looks like Bron did more damage to the Pistons pride than the Pistons did to him. LeBron wasn't dethroned, the Pistons weren't underdogs here, the Cavs won in a way, they weren't even supposed to get this far. If I was a Pistons fan, my pride would be a little hurt right now.

Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" You beat Cleveland but you played like sh*t for most of the series, I hope the Mav's or Spurs kick your overrated ass' in the finals. :happy0144:
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" After the way the Cavs were playing the Pistons, the Pistons better do some planning and practice for the Heat. I mean, forget about the season, Just look at round 2 of the playoffs. Cavs vs Pistons 3-4Heat vs Nets 4-1Now, the Heat are the only team that got a breather after finishing off the Nets pretty easily. The Heat really got some chemistry going during that series, they were different than any Heat team that showed up in the first round or in the regular season. The Nets aren't an easy win, ESPN magizine had them going all of the way and the Nets are better than the Cavs for sure. Out of all the games this round, the Pistons were supposed to be the ones getting the rest. The Cavs almost (should have) won game 6 and that would have been the end of the "Bad Boys."So if I was Piston fan right now, I would be a little worried. You don't know what Piston and Heat teams are going to show up next round.
Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" If the Pistons have to fight for their lives to beat Cleveland...how and the hell are they going to do against the better teams in the west?

Re: "Good Bye, Good Bye, Hey Hey Hey Hey GOOD BYE!" Hey Heatfan, why is it that when we said that we would beat the Cavs before the series started it was you who said we were cocky, and now you are running your mouth about how the Heat are going to kill us. You are a hypocrite, and a big one at that.Lets get something straight, the Pistons are the best team in the league, and the best in the east until proven otherwise.If the other guys like Walker, Williams, Payton etc, didn't show up in ALL of the games the Pistons and Heat have played this season, what makes you think that they will now? Bottomline is, Pistons still have the best record and are still defending Eastern Conference champions until your Heat beat us.
