Damn, the Pistons took 20 more shots than the Spurs. 
Musashi Wins!
FLAWLESS VICTOLY!
damn, that was a beating.
Duncan didn't even sound concerned at the press conference. God, will somebody break into his house and kill his goldfish or something? He reminds me of Cleveland in the last episode of Family Guy. Guy needs to get a face of rage out there on the court, somehow. (Goldfish be damned)

He looked defeated on the bench. I was getting a little uncomfortable watching Popovitch rub his thigh.
DMczaf said:Tim Legler just said about Duncan sitting on the bench during the blowout, "This guy is supposed to be the greatest power forward of all time? I cant see a Karl Malone or a Charles Barkley accepting this!!"
Uh...
"STFU"
Legler is a bitch. He came out and blasted the fans after the Detroit brawl, and then was told to STFU by management the next day. He swallowed his pride and changed his tune 180 degrees. He's a bitch, his opinion is shit, and I hope to God that ESPN fires him.

Did he say that? :lol There's no crew more retarded than ESPN's. What is he supposed to do? The Pistons totally outclassed them tonight. He tried, but was denied. I'm sure Malone and Barkely never were on the losing end of games like tonight's or how about a loser like Legler himself.

I thought it was 4 against the Spurs 17.
Nice little stat for the couple of Spurs haters... Spurs have 65 fucking turnovers in 4 games.

I'm sick of his shit. He can't do it 3 times, so there is nothing to lose. There are major problems with the Pistons offense that have to be addressed. Bench needs a renovation as well.
He missed 1/5th of the season this year... Come on. He's an insane teacher and adjuster, but I think he's served his time. With that said, I don't think Joe will dump LB, so Flip will sit out next year, and come to the Pistons in 06.
Flip will be in Detroit, oh yes.

Pathetic performance by San Antonio. Duncan looks horrible and Ginobli suddenly became the world's biggest pussy on the road. There hasn't been a single finals game worth watching. Neither team has done a damn thing on the road.
Spurs are in deep shit too. Duncan is getting raped on the pick and roll as bad as Shaq usually does and the Spur's have not been able to do anything on offense to counteract whatever Brown did between game 2 and 3.
And this is more Lakers talk, but cmon guys admit it. For all the non-Spurs and non-Piston fans, you guys miss them! We would all be a lot more entertained if the old Lakers team was still around.

I thought the Pistons made some great adjustments, but they also seemed to get away with murder on defense on Duncan. I am never the guy who bitches about the officiating, but I thought something was really sketchy with how the refs were calling the game. I mean the Pistons would all just run up to Duncan and start swatting like crazy and there seemed to be like zero fouls called when they did that (maybe I am just the only guy who saw it this way?). I still have to give the Pistons credit for winning, because even if the refs are going by the official Thunderdome rules of basketball, the Spurs could have adjusted and started playing more physicall too.
Being physical had a lot to do with the Spurs scoring in the 70s. But the Pistons' hustle and pressure had everything to do with the Pistons exploding to average 100 pts a game in Detroit. 10+ steals both games, 18 TOs for SA both games... Murder on fast break points. When Detroit keeps going for multiple steals and traps in a row and GETS them, SA is fucked, utterly.
The officiating goes to whatever team is hustling and has the most energy usually. First two games in SA the spurs were getting almost every call, and now that the pistons have all the energy they were getting some good calls. Sunday will determine the series, its a must win for Detroit if they can pull that win off... It will be big... and I mean BIG. All the doubters who have been harassing detroit the past year for not deserving it, will have to go to a big field and kill themselves to sacrifice and apalogize to the gods...
No, no. I'm very happy knowing the Lakers are far from the Finals/playoffs.bionic77 said:And this is more Lakers talk, but cmon guys admit it. For all the non-Spurs and non-Piston fans, you guys miss them! We would all be a lot more entertained if the old Lakers team was still around.

Just like you predicted a Nuggets, Sonics and Suns series win against the Spurs?
Duncan: "Dear God, please make it stop, because you know I don't have the mental toughness to make it stop myself...."
God: "Grow some balls, pussy!"
:lol :lol :lol
Duncan: "It's over, Pop. It's OVER!"
Pop: "There, there, Timmy. Where there is an old lady who needs help crossing the road, I know you'll be there. That's more important than a hard foul or calling your teammates out on national TV. Go back to your hotel room and get some rest."
