<div class="quote_poster">Quoting purehoops:</div><div class="quote_post">You guys are over reacting... worst call ever? Wow, simply stupid statement. You clearly say it because it was against your team. Cry all you want, but in no way are the refs on the Wolves side. Should have been a no call, Billups misses the shot, Wolves win. Period.</div> lol......what game were you watching??? 1. please re-read the thread. 2. watch Sportcenter. 3. thank the refs for the win tonight.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting purehoops:</div><div class="quote_post">Woops he did? Hahaha. I sware I saw him miss the shot. Okay take back all of what I said.</div> honest mistake i hope you can see why Pistons' fans are so pissed now. i agree 100% it should have been a no-call. after a nail-biter of a game and a defensive struggle, how can you make a ticky-tack call like that to decide the game?
It's alright iamme, purehoops said that he thought he saw Billups miss it. He even said to take back everything he has said, so the Piston fans won't start a flame war with the Twolves fans this time.

Ill give the Pistons the benefit of the doubt. But just to let ya know, the game wasnt over, the Wolves still had time for a good looking shot.
worse part is, i thought they called a foul on Cassell at the end i was celebrating and hollering when i noticed Larry Brown yelling, all pissed off. i thought there was no-call, so we only got the bucket. then i see the T-Wolves in-bound the ball, but the score didn't change i was like WTF???
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting AllNet:</div><div class="quote_post">The only bright side tonight for Pistons fans is the Pacers lost at home to Rockets 78-74</div> lol, i was keeping a close eye on that one :mrgreen:
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting AllNet:</div><div class="quote_post">The only bright side tonight for Pistons fans is the Pacers lost at home to Rockets 78-74</div> That is a small bright spot. If Jermaine broke his leg and his career would be over then it would have been a normal bright spot. It would even make up for this game. Yes, normally I wouldn't wish a great player to have a career ending injury, but today all bets are off. As for the Hawks, I propose that Darko should start. I mean who cares, we won't lose. Start Darko, let him play as many minutes as he wants.
Man, I started jumping up and down with my friends, I was happy as hell, I thought it was an And 1. Then I realize that the are inbounding the ball, and I was like what the hell? Then I went crazy.
My reactions were: (Once it was called an offensive foul, before that I was cheering) Throw a phone that I held in my hand, it broke. However, it was a pretty bad phone and I was going to buy a new one. Throw some random punches into the couch/air and almost dislocated my shoulders because of the power behind the punch. Not to break the couch, I found my punching bag and almost dislocated my shoulders again. Decided to IM everybody I could find and type in all caps, at the same time I called everybody and complained about the call. What were YOUR reactions?
Well, the Pistons go robbed. Billups did make an amazing play, but Minnesota got bailed out at the end. Lucky, lucky, lucky.
I know, the Cassell foul was a bit unfair. But you guys did your best and I would have bet twolves to win anyways nono joke, no big deal you guys still rock in the league

You guys are a good team, you put up a GREAT fight. Loved every minute of it. I bet all of the Piston's fans hated it, but thats the way the cookie crumbles. Good luck next time.

Yes, we rock the league, well said. :mrgreen: Ok, time for a small analysis. Okur had a great game, he kept us close in the 3rd and 4th. I believe 19 of his 21 points came in the second half. Billups and Hamilton did not shoot the ball very well going 5-19 and 5-16, respectively. Prince disappeared and I'm starting to be annoyed by him. He is too passive a lot of the time. He hardly shoots and it is just weird to see him on the court sometimes. As for the Twolves, KG had a great game. He outrebounded Ben by 7 and put up 6 assists. (And 22 points) In the end, Ben Wallace was able to contain KG and forced him to miss some shots, which let the Pistons win the game. Err...I mean lose the game on an offensive foul. Oh, and we have now achieved the largest thread in the history of the Piston's forum! (Well, at least for as long as I have been here) I thought that this thread would beat the Pacers game but I didn't expect it to be because of a damn fake foul. I thought it would be because the Pistons would win and Minnesota fans would try to argue and !

That win sucked for us, period. I think Detriot is gonna win the next game, because they'll be trying to avenge this loss, erhmm, "near win".
After the game, Cassel and Garnett were quoted saying that it was a great call. Yeah, they're Bullshitting. But my reaction was, break everything in site. I was talkin to some girl on the phone, and I started cussing really loud at the refs, and she thought I was talkin to her, so I still have a few things to settle.....
