I would just like to throw a big FUCK YOU out to Comcast, especially their "high-speed" internet department.

-edit-

Damon Jones taken off the court hobbling......:(

I've been meaning to ask this throughout the series, but what the HELL is up with Damon Jones' "leg kick" maneuver as he's bringing the ball up. He's nearly kicked Billups about a dozen times this series. What a bitch move. Learn to protect the ball like a normal human being, you goon.

Really? I've had Comcast a bit back and here in this house we just switched back to Comcast from Verizon DSL, no problems here... though like everything it's always a toss up.

:lol :lol I've wondered the same thing.

The tempo in the first half of the quarter definitely favored the Heat, but the second half was all Pistons. Let's see if someone can open it up a bit in the 2nd...

Damon has no handles. It's hilarious how he has to dribble backwards to get the ball down the court with pressure :lol

I was pissed I lost my comcast connection last night and this morning, but still had tv. But not too bad considering like 100,000 lost their power :lol. Bad TStorm in Detroit.

Game is too close to call right now, as Games 7's usually are. Wade is a nonfactor, but he's still making some pretty clutch plays. Eddie Jones and Rasheed Wallace are the X Factors. Rasheed had 6 pts in a row, that got him in the game.

:lol i would pay to see Damon play the Chuckador in a game of one on one. Both of them are so limited and one dimensional yet think they are the shit.

Dooling trying to get off.... Come on now.. you know you can't hook.

Damn I hate when Miami gets 3pt shot happy when they are not hitting them...

'sheed with the 3... if Miami doesn't score this next up, it's time out time.

Pistons with the hot hand.

Big Easy wasting his fouls on Haslem, wtf.

Save em for Shaq!

Wade came out slow, made a couple plays and disappeared. Nonexistent in the 2nd. But then again the Pistons own the 2nd

Heat with the lucky break. 40-45. Detroit still playing very good though. They keep shooting 50%, Heat have no chance.

Miami is lucky to be down only by 5 considering how well the Pistons ran the pick and roll which in turn gave them a great FG%.

They need to do a better job(which Charles correctly commented on) on the pick and roll, and on something they've only done well occasionally... prevent 2nd chance points.

it amazes me some times how they just forget about shaq when he is in the game, he could have easily more then 12 points at the half :(

Ernie: "What are your thoughts, Magic?"

Magic: "Well, they combined for the first...uhh...11 of the first...errr...they scored the first 11 of the 11 first-- no, that's not right-- 11 of the first points they scored at the beginning of the game were scored by them. In other words [the viewing audience holds its breath right here], they didn't take 4 of the first...ummm....they didn't shoot 4 shots in...errr....they didn't shoot in 4 straight possessions-- what I mean to say is that when a guy's hot you gotta get them the ball!"


Ernie: "Thank you, Magic, for that trenchant analysis."


:D

Miami just can't seem to chop in to that 5... get to 5... get pulled away... get to 5...

Role players? Well they've showed up somewhat... but the Heat need more.

Wow Wade is coming on.. 18 pts now.

Sweet hesitation shot by Wade.

This is what Miami need... he's now getting active on the defensive side too.. and that's going to hopefully spur the role players....
 
Major props to Wade, showing major heart. I wonder if Rashard "I hurted my toe so I'm bailing out. FUCK MY TEAM!" Lewis is watching what a true pro is like.

I've never seen anyone more bitter than Konex. :p "Refs taking control" is now his rallying cry. :lol


Wade is awesome. I'm always surprised when any player can string together 3 or 4 baskets against this Detroit defense; the fact that he's doing it while injured is all the more impressive. Did Kobe make 4 shots in a row all series against Detroit last year? ;) Did Kobe even make 4 baskets in last year's series? :D

Niiice defensive stop by the Heat.

Hear what Collins said Dooling! You're a good player, but don't go all Kobe on us!

See ya 'Sheed! Go ahead Konex, say there was no foul there...

Oh Wade is sitting down.. gotta keep that energy up.. funnel, funnel, funnel to Shaq.

Nice J by Hamilton.
