    I think the Pistons will be coming out of the East. I really don't like the Pacers at all to be honest, and I would much rather see the Pistons eventhough that means a low scoring defensive series. I love watching Detroit work their strong defense, and to me that is still exciting basketball. I'm hoping Detroit will wrap up the Eastern Confrence Finals tomorrow in Detroit.

    True but if we play Pistons it would be much harder thatn the Pacers. Even though they have number 1. I would like to play the Pacers because they will be much easier to beat.

    I'd Go with the Pistons

    But either way I Don't see the Pistons or Pacers being a threat against the Lakers..so i predict the Lakers will win the series against either team

    I think the Pistons could really challenge the Lakers. They match up well down in the post and I would love to see Wallace/Shaq go at it for an entire series.

    Kobe would have trouble sticking with Hamilton the entire night plus trying to be involved offensively as well. Rip probably has the best stamina in the entire league.

    I would love to see a lakers v pistons series. Bc it would be the best series. The Wallace boys vs Shaq & the Mail Man would be insane. But I give the lakers the edge in that match up cus Big Ben doesn't score enuff (i luv his heart though). Kobe vs Hamilton would be a good match up when Detiot has the ball. But Hamilton can't play D Kobe would eat um up on the other side.
    That being said Lakers would take it in 5 games or maybe 6. All low scoring, close games. But we all know the East is the JV league.

    Pistons versus Lakers, because the Pistons would make the finals more entertaining by giving the Lakers a better challenge.

    I'll say this about the probable Lakers-Pistons series:

    It will be fun to watch,and certainly it could be a really good Finals series,but i just don't see the Pistons overcoming Shaq,Kobe,Malone,and Payton

    But than again,upsets do happen!!
