The fix is in.

"It's too late! The fix is in and the noodles are boiling, boiling I tell's ya!"

 

And both teams are hangin' in there. Neither team has really pulled away for a good period of time...

This is way too close for my liking. If the Pistons can pull it here, though, I think they can get it in 5.

Pistons know what needs to be done and are executing everything well. They are out-playing the Lakers. I'm loving every minute of this, I'm loving the fact that Payton and Malone have done nothing to contribute.

"Quicker and more athletic" Doc Rivers explains it perfectly.

Ys, yes they are. Shaq is going to score, you know that. The key that the Pistons have figured out is let him score, go after the other guys. They are getting to the basket quicker and are just out-playing the Lakers in every aspect. Even when they lost Game 2, they beat themselves, the Lakers did not beat them.

Jerry Krause split up the Bulls, and the league (read: officials) will split up the Lakers. Simple as that.

It would please me so much to see Malone not get that ring. And to see Kobe's face when the lose, hell too bad Jack isn't center stage to see the Pistons win.

Lakers in 3.

 

I can see it right now:

 

Game 1: Lakers 105, Pistons 65

 

Game 2: Lakers 97, Pistons 59

 

Game 3: Lakers 110, Pistons 55

 

Game 4: Pistons forfeit the championship, and can be seen frolicking off the coast of Jamaica fishing with Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith.

For ol times sake, figured i'd post that.

 

Then...

 

Pistons in 5

 

Why the sudden change of heart, sir ?

 

Does anybody realize that the Pistons have just taken a 3-1 lead over the MIGHTY L.A. Lakers ?

 

I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME.

This is great! The best said, "The Lakers will be going home after Game 5, question is will they take the Pistons with them"

Funny thing is...

 

The series could've been over had Kobe not hit that shot.

Guys,don't celebrate too early. Here's 2 reasons:

 

1. - NO team has ever swept the middle three games.

2. The lakers are capable of coming back ( The Spurs/Lakers series anyone?)

 

 

Yes, i do know this thing is basically over, do to the Pistons being better and wanting the title more but don't celebrate till the clock hits 0.0 in the fourth on tuesday. THEN you can pull out the rioting gear, the fine wine and join everyone in the streets for a fucking party.

Oh hells yes. It hurts that tonight could've been a sweep, but there's no point in living in the past. The Pistons certainly aren't, as they've looked like the more dominant team almost every minute since Game 2. They want it more right now. Simple as that.

 

Lakers fans are making excuses for this and that but no excuse in the world is going to change the fact that their season is on the line from here on out. The Lakers have shown their true colors by complaining on virtually every call against them. Some were justified, but hell, they weren't so upset when those unfair calls were working in their favor all these years, were they? Great teams don't need to bitch and moan constantly. They overcome the challenges and get the job done, regardless. The Pistons are one game away from proving all the cynics wrong; all the so-called experts wrong; virtually everyone. And it's something truly once in a lifetime, to see David slay the might Goliath in sports, especially basketball. Here's hoping they close it out Tuesday.
