Looks like Lakers are going to lose the finals
 
:D

Many upsets happening as of late, this one is just mind blowing. It would have been a clean sweep if Kobe wouldn't have made that 3 pointer to take them into overtime in game 3.

Pistons are hungrier and more energetic, and at the same time strategicly breaking down th lakers. I never thought this would happen.

Not a Pistons fan by an stretch, but I'll support any team who can take em down.

Though, the series is far from over. You just never know/

So far so good. I really thought that this series wouldn't go more than five games... with the Lakers winning, though... Not possibly the Pistons.

The only way lakers win the series is if they win Three games in a row.... at which point all lakers fans need to get on their knees and give Kobe some head because he saved thier asses.

I personaly expect pistons to end Lakers tuesday, but however it turns out it is a great series.

I hope we have some magic left...

The Lakers haven't been what I expected them to be so far, and I thought that they would win the last game for sure. There's still hope though.

The Pistons have been great though. If they win, they deserved all of it. The only thing I don't like about the Pistons in Billups hiding behind the pick n' roll...but if the Lakers were winning, I wouldn't mind.

The Best TEAM will win.

I love this series. **** Kobe and Shaq...My two most despised players in the league and I'm glad that they are going down. Good for Larry Brown.

No one could possibly hate the lakers more than I do, and though I feel VERY scummy for rooting for detroit in ANYTHING, I'm loving this series.


Time to watch the rapist go down, and take Phil and the lane cholesterol with him.

I dont know anything about basketball really, but since my Grizzlies are gone, ill go for the Pistons, but only because i hate the Lakers, they are too exposed.

Stonecutter, I hate the lakers with a passion too... There are too any laker fans where I live. Get this... BEFORE game one of the series on the raidio this guy was talking about "Broom Sticks" and how Pistons won't win a game. Now in the morning they avoid the subject of the lakers all together. Hahaha.

I say all non-Detroiters have a parade when/if the Pistons wins just to rub it in the Lakers' face.

I mean it was so bad, ESPN even doubted the
pistons. I remember after game 1, they were running an ad for SportsCenter "Why the Lakers don't have to worry about beating the Pistons"

And the only game they won was by luck in overtime. :cool:

And that fact alone should make Pistons at least favorites for game 5. It's funny, before every game of the series the announcers picked the lakers.

Well, it's official the Detroit Pistons are your NBA Champions..

So long Lakers, see you in the fall!

Anyhow, party time...
