I honestly didn't think Pistons could do it until I watched them start to manhandle the Lakers. I believed through all the post season that they could make it to the finals but thats it. I like the Pistons and I'll admit that my liking them has increased because of how much joy they are bringing me as an anti-Laker fan. I think its also obvious that I have been a supporter of Big Ben this whole time. I have loved his game for years.

Well, i thought it was going to come down to Detroit/New Jersey in the East(i was rooting for New Jersey), and I've liked Detroit since last year, i just like NJ more. Well, any team that goes against the Lakers i would root for. Im not the biggest Timberwolves fan, but i wanted them to win so badly(Personally, i wanted to see a Minnesota/New Jersey championship)
i guess i dont need to but i'm gonna clear this up...i know whose been posting in since the 1st round (driftor, af, mavice)and i got no problem with people rooting for detroit over the lakers..if the pistons werent in it and the lakers were i'd be rooting fot whoever the lakers played against but when someone comes on out of nowhere and has been member for kmc for like a year and claims to be a piston fan i'm gonna want to know how come they didnt back me up on early in the post season when i kept goin back and forth with laker fans

i just want the Lakers to win because if Detroit wins in LA....then the citizens that watch the game inside of The Palace would go out into the streets and set it ablaze.
It could still happen tonight, but I don't think it's assss likely.
No kidding. Every freaken game I've been watching including this one, the Pistons have gotten every break from the refs. They call horrible offensive fouls on LA, and true Link, Shaq is getting no break. Hmmm...I think these are some home court refs!!
Dunno, I'm getting a bit worried. Kobe promised, infact he declared an LA victory tonight. Doesn't look promising at the moment but it's still close somewhat.

Nice...Fisher straight blocked that flopping little girl Hamilton and got bailed out. He hit the floor...slid...and the ball bounced off the rim before the ref called the foul. now it's 37-31
that guy hits the floor on every since damn play...a 13 year old white kid could knock him over...
Yeah, did you see his nice little tumble in game 4, or at least I think it was him. Claimed it was a trip on LA but he completely took a dive and oh guess what the refs called?
Are you talking about the one at half court that they called on Shaq? If so, there was a trip, but it wasn't on Shaq.
Rip did flop on that one but by Fisher but you got to remember that Fish is like the biggest flopper in the game. I believe it was the last game that the announcers were talking about how Fisher has surpassed Vlade for being the biggest actor in the NBA.

Not quite sure which one it was now sorry. I know it was in game 4 and it appeared at least to me that someone from the Pistons took a dive, it happened at mid-court I know that.
I think it was the one you were thinking of then. Rip was going by whoever was guarding him and Shaq. He got tripped and fell towards Shaq so they called a foul. They did incorrectly call it on Shaq, but there was a trip (assuming we're thinking of the same play).

like myth said fisher is the best actor in the nba he makes sure they the first call is an offensive foul and from then on out he';; flop like a fish and get the calls...i dont want to hear about the refs...i dont beleiver smz said they gotten every single call coz if he thinks that he obviously didnt see game 1 and 2....1st pistons have been driving to the lane all series and when you drive your gonna get call you not gonna get calls when your just shooting jumps shots like the lakers have been doin with the exception of this game
