    Well it looks like these Pistons are for real and weren't fazed by that game 2 loss. The Pistons could and should be up 3-0 on the verge of sweeping your precious unbeatable Lakers. I love this game. [​IMG]

    Kobe had 11 points.

    He got his points off 1 phantom call, and a couple of fast breaks where he was wide open. Basically.

    Tayshaun Prince OWNED kobe. Kobe needs picks and screens to get past Tayshaun like in game 2. One on One, Tayshaun just owns him.

    The Pistons made a big statement. I don't think that game 2 loss matters anymore now that they got the dominating game 3 win(If the Pistons won game 2, the Lakers probably would've won game 3).
    Tayshaun Prince was awesome.

    The Lakers look like crap right now. Right now, the Pistons are the superior team.

    what else could the Lakers possibly do to win?

    The Pistons are making the Lakers look like a JV team right now.

    Let's just say that if you're a Lakers fan and not worried at all, you are in denial.

    What else did I want to say? Oh yea, the Pistons are known to lose the next game after playing the previous really well. So, don't be surprised if LA wins the next game.

    So far, homecourt has made a huge difference to the Pistons. The Pistons never trailed, or looked like losing. Even Darko got some minutes. Detroit controlled the boards, getting 51 rebounds to the Lakers 39. The Pistons showed some great defense yet again in the playoffs, and the Lakers only went to the line 13 times(Pistons had 30 attempts from the line). The Pistons just dominated in game 3, and if the Lakers play like that again they can't expect to come close in game 4. If the Pistons win the next two games (both home games), they can become 2003-2004 NBA Champions.

    Wow. I can't believe that I'm going to say this but someone actually stopped Shaq. Shaq as usual of course tried to give an alibi saying that he was always being pushed but come on big guy. Big Ben owned you on game 3!

    I can't believe that Tay limited Kobe. Kobe settled for some jumpers including going for 0-4 from the trifecta area.

    Game 4 is bleak for Malone. They're in big trouble.

    GP? He's not a problem anymore. Billups owns him and he knows it.

    I love this quote:

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">With the rest of the roster providing what it usually does -- next to nothing -- the Lakers were held to a franchise postseason in low in points in the 50 years of the shot clock era, a span of a staggering 561 games.</div>

    But the Pistons looks like need to win another game at least at the Staples center. History isn't on their side. No home team ever swept their 3 game home games in a 2-3-2 series.

    Here comes a Laker fan!! Detroit's D was amazing, give credits to you all fans, but I really think the Lakers lost in a rout because they wanted to see Darko Milicic play... you know give the kid some Finals experience. Lakers in 6.
