"He got a lot of shots up and we couldn't get any help over."</div>LinkThe pistons are losing alot lately
It was only a matter of time man, I didnt think they had a chance to hit the 70 win mark because they were going to hit a cold stretch eventually which they did right now. Theyll probably pick it up in a week or two again and steamroll through the playoffs.
I saw that game, Detroit led all the way up until the last few minutes and lost it.. That's not how you close out a game you had in your pocket.The bench will be their downfall, much like it was last year.
It was the Dwyane Wade show. Scoring 18 in the 4th, including Miami's last 17 as a team, none more improtant than his game winner. Great game, he carried the Heat, put them on his back and carried them to victory. Kobe who? Haha.
Wow........Wade is amazing. He scored the last 17 points for the Heat......just amazing. This is probably the best game the Heat have played all season. But, one thing I found strange was that Shaq's first shot of the second half was in the 4th quarter. He had an amazing first half, get him more touches!
The word Defense simply slipped out of DET's mind when it came to guarding Wade. He just went off like Kobe.
