Pistons outscored them by 59 points in the last 10 quarters. This is what the starters can do now that they have their rhythm back. The last month of the regular season the starters were playing 2 quarters and it took them a while to get back playing at the level they are capable of.

I think out of all the teams in the NBA, it should be illegal to say the Pistons are "hitting their rhythm" in the playoffs. How many series in the past two years have they looked like they had it on lockdown, then let their opponents back in?

Still I think they have a small edge in the series.

Yeah well the last few years Flip has gotten a lot of criticism for overplaying the starters in the regular season and it really looked like they just ran out of gas in the playoffs. This year if they lose, it won't be because of that.

sixers lose by 23 and still the ugliest thing on the court was Dalembert's hair

and that video isn't a flop? amare backs off suddenly when ginobli thnks he's going to get some contact and loses balance. I'm sure there's much more convincing videos you can pull out but that one fails.

i said van gundy was dumb for saying it was a FOUL. it's obviously a flop, and a pretty terrible one at that.

WOW you retard cavs fan. Lebron is such a baby, the guy is fucking 6'9'' 260, you can't stop him from putting the ball in the hoop if you choose to foul unless you foul him hard. You dont foul him hard and he makes tough shots. The Songaila foul i have to say was an accident (though who knows it may not have been).

I have to say, LeBron is by far the most dominant player in the NBA, Z kills us every time he gets the ball, but somehow, someway, the Cavs can't dominate. I really don't get it. besides Boobie, Z, and Bron, the team is a worthless sack of crap it seems.

lol @ retard cavs fan

I watch a ton of basketball, not just cavs games. I feel I'm very objective and at times, even overly critical of the Cavs.

If you have watched some of the fouls I'm talking about (which you clearly have *not*), you'd know what I'm talking about. There is a huge difference between hard fouls, which come naturally with playoff basketball, and blatant cheap shots such as shoves into cameras into the side and blows to the head. It's a joke. Couple that with all the **** talking the wizards have done, and I look at them like a bunch of thugs. But then again since i'm a cavs fan I must be biased. Rolling Eyes

It's sad that the Celtics will probably win game 7 by 30 but the fact that this series has gone 7 games is awesome.
