The Wolves gave the Pistons window of opprotunity... you act like EVERYTHING was given to the Wolves... when Cassell misses FTs you have to take advantage of that.. Hey how bout you blame Prince... wtf is he thinking he can take KG? For god sake you think they would have had something better set up... like the ball in Rips hands...
good game tonight. exciting to the end. what i've learned from this, is that we are just as good as the TWolves. the two meetings were decided by only 2 points. the TWolves are a great team, but i'm not afraid to meet them in the Finals.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting PyroManiac:</div><div class="quote_post">Yeah, great game. No complaining from us tonight, at least not in anybody else's forum. I thought we had a chance to tie the game near the end, too bad Billups got ejected. Triple double for Billups though, always glad to see that. Hopefully we'll see you in the playoffs. </div> I, for one, would LOVE meeting you again this season. We'd need big series from KG, Sam, Spree, Troy & Wally but I think we'd win. I think Detroit's gonna get fined for playing players when they hadn't gotten cleared by league HQ. The NBA notified Atlanta that their new players couldn't play & I can't imagine that they didn't do that with the Pistons, too. We'll see, though, what the facts are.
They wouldn't get fined. They didn't know they couldn't play, it was the agents fault. It was just a mistake, and it's all better now.

Clearly, that didn't happen otherwise they wouldn't have told the Pistons they had to pull their new players. Plus, league officials took the extra step in Atlanta that they couldn't use Rebraca & Sura. That game started an hour before the T'Wolf-Pistons game. The chances that the league botched things isn't as likely as the Pistons just using the players & hoping that they wouldn't get called on it.
