First of all I have nothing against the Pistons I think they are a good team but its not like these guys are even close to one of the best teams of all time. From the way they talk they are all 10 time all stars with 5 rings and have been in this situation countless times. You listen to Prince who has never even made an all star team and all his comments are "We dont feel pressure" and we were in this position 2 years ago against the Nets"... "I'm still not concerned because I know what we're capable of," Chauncey Billups said. "We've been there before. Are you kidding me?? They are down 3-2. going on the road, playing without one of their best players on a team that struggles to score and he is not concernced give me a break. First of all they should never be in this postion against an at best above average team. They think they can just show up and turn it on at anytime. The biggest problem with their team is they cant score when they need to. Wallace may be the most offensively inept player in the NBA regardless of how good he is defensively he is a huge liability on offense. This team has one title in their belts and act like they should just advance to the Finals without even competing. Saying all that if they will wake up and just play hard and with some urgency they should beat Cleveland but if they dont its all over. Whoever thinks the Pistons are going to cakewalk these last two games are in for a rude awekening. The funny thing is Cleveland without their 2nd best player the last 3 games and Cleveland still won all three.

not to mention havent they covered 4 straight -- my point exactly couple games back, Deet has looked pretty inept for a "power" in every rd. game let alone last nights fiasco ...

I got home late and couldnt post but I got a nice win on ml and the +11 .

Detroit is getting old around the edges and they can be beat.

Their scoring droughts are killers. I mean come on a NBA team goes 5 min and 3.5 min without scoring. I know it happens, but Detroit can also not be relied upon to score a winning basket when its most needed.

I think everyone is underestimating how good Cleveland is. This is not fluke that they have won the past two games. They are playing hard and match up well against Detroit front line.

Even Big Ben does not look like his normal intimidating self. Wallace is a has been.

Get Hughs back Friday and rock the house. Detroit in big trouble.

I have to think that Cleveland is going to be the favorite Friday. If Cavs are catching points I am going to be all over that again.

King James is for real. Move over M Jordan

The problem with Detroit is they think they can outscore teams.

Before they used their hard nosed defense to win ball games. And they were the best in the business in doing this. Now it is a different story.

Also their success comes from Rasheed being healthy and playing to his high capabilities, he doesn't have a good game, its hard for the pistons to win.

they are a bunch of overpaid CRYBABIES. the whole town has been making excuses for them losing. no respect or credit given to cleveland and i'm hoping they lose tomorrow and be done

They can't score, they are choking, and their defense is in the shitter. Plus their coach is getting exposed as garbage. Totally outcoached. That ending yesterday was pathetic and hilarious

they are paper champions - thank you Clubber Lang
