Lets just wrap it up. If we have a strong first quarter Orlando should fold. Finish 'm up and get some rest before facing Bulls or Heat. And cut down on Tay's minutes, he's going to have to chase Deng or Wade in the second round, he's going to need all the strength to be successful at that.
I don't think the heavy minutes for Tay are that big a deal in this series. Finishing off Orlando in 4 games is the key to getting rested up.
Exactly... there is no rest like kickin' back and watching future opponents beat each other up. Haven't heard any Pistons talking about aches and pains... that usually comes up after your team is eliminated. Even though there wasn't as much bench play as some would prefer... this year excessive minutes should not be a media crutch.... The boyz looked fresh last night.
Fresh and furious. I absolutely loved the seriousness and workmanlike approach. I hope they absolutely shatter the Magic in Game 4.
I don't like all the hard fouls this series. Finish it up and don't risk any injuries. I have a feeling that the Pistons will put them away. No sense mailing in a game when there is blood in the water. They have to be thinking how sweet a sweep would be.
I too would like nothing more than to make the Magic disappear in 4 games, however, the Pistons seem to play terrible after a layoff. Let`s say the Bulls/Heat series goes the max, 7 games. It will end on May 5th. Game 1 of the Pistons vs Bulls/Heat would be, perhaps, May 7th. That would be nine days off for the Pistons. I don`t know about anyone else, but if the Bulls win in that scenario, I don`t think they would be as fatigued as some might think. Now, the Heat on the other hand would be a much easier foe in game 1.
Yes, but they also always play terrible in Game 3 when they're up 2-0, right? I have faith that they'll come out strong against either Chicago or Miami, regardless of the layoff.
Chicago wins again! Man, I NEVER root for the Heat. I mean, NEVER! But the least the Heat can do is win one at home! I want that series to last as long as possible but now it could end in 4. Damn.... But anyway, here's to the Pistons going all custodian on the Magic's ass and sweeping the series! CHEERS!
I tried rooting for the Heat tonight, but.... couldn't.... do.... it. At this point, I want to see the Pistons and Bulls sweep. Then, battle royale baby. It'll be the match up that determines the NBA Champ.
Agreed. That will be one hell of a series! Get that weak %%%%% S#$% out of here, and may the best team win.
