Deleterious Posted Monday at 01:36 AM Posted Monday at 01:36 AM Lets still make game threads for Pistons playoff games and use this for everything not related to Detroit. Eastern seeds are set. West still has a few more games to finish up tonight. 1 Quote
Deleterious Posted Monday at 01:44 AM Author Posted Monday at 01:44 AM I like the way it lines up for Detroit. They sweep any of the 7-10 teams. Sweep or 4-1 Toronto. 4-1 maybe 4-2 against Cleveland. Then it's probably the winner of NYK-BOS. I think they beat the Knicks but Boston worries me. Two stars, great role players, excellent coach. That is a very difficult series. The Pistons can beat them, but I think I might Boston might be a slight favorite. Quote

Deleterious Posted Monday at 03:30 PM Author Posted Monday at 03:30 PM My problem with Denver is the same I had with a healthy Lakers team. Bad defense. 1 Quote
Betrayer Posted Monday at 03:35 PM Posted Monday at 03:35 PM I really wanted NYK in our bracket. CLE is a pretty bad matchup for us. I think that's going to be a tight second round series that could go either way. Quote

JB and his staff should be watching that PHX-DAL series from a few years ago I think Phoenix scored something like 85% of their points in the first two games when the hunted Luka. Kidd made adjustments, including heavy pressure on the ball, even doubling the ball, before the screen. Completely took Phoenix out of rhythm and Dallas made the big comeback to win the series. Cleveland isn't much of a concern. They are one of the softest teams in the league. The pistons feast on soft teams. Quote

We don't seem to match up too well against Atlanta. Defending the outside shot is our weakness. Quote
Deleterious Posted 2 hours ago Author Posted 2 hours ago SVG doing his best to not say Kon is a fairly good defender for a white guy. Quote
Deleterious Posted 2 hours ago Author Posted 2 hours ago Sure looked like Ball grabbed Bam's ankle Quote
buddha Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Funny how the scores are lower when both teams are actually trying to defend and win. 1 Quote
buddha Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago another reason the playoffs are better: the refs let them play. the game flows so much better when the refs stop calling ticky tack bull****. (knicks, celtics, and lakers home games notwithstanding) Quote
Deleterious Posted 1 hour ago Author Posted 1 hour ago Ware has always had talent. He just doesn't always give effort. Quote
