Lakers-Pistons

[Sagramore]

LoL, johnny the voice of wisdom...Payton should aspire to be more like Malone, and not whining all the time about every little thing that's not going his way...he chose to be on the team and he should man up

3-1 Pistons, almost home.

Kobe looked really pissed.

OMG that is to funny. We need a smily that puts a foot in there mouth. God only knows I could use that one too.

Pistons win it: 88-80.

Wow. Sheed just brought it.

The Lakers look like sissies... I swear. Yeah they won't win another game it looks like. They only stole game 2... take note, STOLE game 2. They never showed that they have enough talent and defense to beat the Pistons... and to think that the Pistons are the underdogs... Phil Jackson for the first time in his career has trailed 2-1... and now he is trailing 3-1. Diasppointing. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Not really, i'm enjoying it all the way.

To me the big man in this series so far is Chauncey Billups. He not only leads the Pistons defensively and offensively, but he makes big shots from outside when they need it the most. Plus that he hardly ever misses a freethrow.

What I mean was it was disappointing for the Lakers... I am enjoying the humiliation they're getting! hahaha

Chauncey missed one free throw I think... but yeah he sank one big three-pointer... and then you have Sheed's to daggers towards the end of regulation. [img]smile.gif[/img]

My friend said that Luke Walton maybe the Lakers' savior. Err... I don't think so. Hahahaha! Yeah did I say I am enjoying the punishment the Pistons are handing down to the Lakers?

I swear I heard Doc on ABC say that...I'm not kidding.

edit: And yeah, johnny, I agree about Chauncey Billups. He'll probably be the MVP IMHO, and his shot has been amazing. Just 3 missed free throws (2 yesterday, I really didn't expect that), and his 3P shot has been on during the finals. I'd like to see Prince add more offensively, though. He's a great defensive player and can be a great offender too, so I'd like to see him get more points on the board. He's actually my favorite player on the Pistons .

I take it you mean Doc Rivers ? Well, what can i say.... he didn't get sacked for nothing as coach from the Magic, obviously he's gone senile.

As long as Prince keeps shutting Bryant down like he has been doing so far, i don't care if he scores or not. I can't think of a more satisfying sight of a frustrated Bryant, ranting and bitching against the refs how mistreated he feels.

[Bahamut]

I couldn't agree with you more...

But hey.

I like how Doc Rivers comments on the plays and whatever the players or coaches are doing... I am learning A LOT. And besides... he's now coaching the Celtics... so senile it is ei? Too bad for them... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Yeah Go Pistons! Take them out tomorrow!

Yeah, I'm talking about Doc Rivers. And the Celtics need a new coach since they've no longer got Jim O'Brien (he's with the 76ers now, the greatest team ever ).

Bryant even talked about how bad his game was, which I enjoyed a lot. I think he shot 4/11, or maybe 4/9, in the second game, and he ended up 8/25 last game, which was pretty funny. But he got in 2 very lucky 3-pointers just before the shot-clock expired...so he's just a lucky guy when it comes basketball.

There still hasn't been much answer to Shaq. His trips to the free-thow line have actually been limited, which I find kinda surprising. Anyone else out there liking Rasheed's cocky attitude? That technical he got definately was worth it, cuz I think that's what sparked him on to get aggressive on offense.

GAME 5 TONIGHT! LET'S GOT PISTONS!!!
