I think Detroit has the better chance. Artest had the better chance of stopping Kobe but they don't have the depth to throw at Shaq.
Detroit has Wallace, Rasheed, Campbell, Okur and Corliss to throw at Shaq. Plus Prince isn't going to do badly against Kobe, probably not too well though. |

Detroit is definately a harder matchup for the Lakers than Indiana would have been.
Lakers in 5 or 6 though I reckon. Hope Detriot wins though. |

Wow, I really wasn't expecting the East to end in six, thats good though, no rest advantage for the Lakers anymore.
I really think that if they play their game right, Detroit can pull this off. They have home court advantage don't they? |

I was just reading above up there, and Bean was talking about teams trying to get Hudson...In Reusse's column today it said that KG was campaigning to get Hudson to come back. I know its going to be hard cause Hud wasn't happy when Sam came in, but if anyone can do it KG could convince him. Also it would be likely that Hudson would start next year if he came back.
Also, I just have to laugh at Juwon Howard, KG called him and said that if Juwon signed with the Wolves, he would sign an extension without a doubt, so Howard decided to go play with McGrady and the worst team in the league. Lol. I guess the jokes really on us though, we ended up with Kandi. |

Backup who could drop 20 points a night... but still a backup. T-Hud is a big gamble though. Could be a huge talent for us, but on the other hand... injured all season, and didn't even have the stamina before that to play 35+ minutes a game. Dunno. I'd love T-Hud to come back. The Wolves were gonna give him split playing time. It was his loser ass that got injured the entire season, and he wants to be handed a starting job? I guess he doesn't care if that job is even, say, for the Suns in the NBA cellar? |

Lakers have homecourt. They had a better record than any other tteam in the NBA except Minnesota and Indiana.

Also, I never said that Danny Crawford = Lakers win. Meh, I don't enjoy being mocked by the less fortunate, this is the result. ![]() So now let's actually post on topic here and say, way to go Pistons. The best defense for Shaq is to defend the shit out of the other 4 players. Also, hey Lakers, how's it feel to get torched to ashes by a good point guard? |

I called it
![]() All the talk has gotten into their heads. Plus considering they didn't go to Shaq as much in the second half and he had 0 free throws in the second half. If I'm not mistaken Kobe was the only one who shot any, and he shot two. They have done this all year pretty much, and against San Antonio. I'm not THAT worried but they will have to come out with fire in their eyes in the next game (and the rest of the series. |

Although I do think the Lakers will still win the series I think it will be closer then I suspected
This win was nothing like the win the Sixers got againest LA a few years ago in the 1st game of the series. I figured the series was gonna be a lot like that series but I was wrong. This series has a different "feel" to it |

Yeah I didn't read the rest of the posts after that.
Like I've said all along, this series will be a lot closer and a lot more exciting than everyone said/thought. But I'm thinking the only reason people said that in the first place was because they hate the Lakers ![]() |

No I meant I think the only reason people have said it was going to be boring and blowouts was because they hate the Lakers.

I said boring because the Pistons make basketball boring if you're into high-scoring highlight reel affairs.
Remember Ravens- Giants? Voted one of the most boring games ever because the Giants "potent offense" was destroyed by the Ravens D. My favorite Superbowl EVER. Never seen a defense play better football than on that day. ![]() So to see the Lakers get shut down? Hell yeah. Problem is, they give the ball to Shaq more, like in the Wolves series, it's a different ballgame. However, I have faith in the pistons. |

Shaq could have had 50 easily if they would have kept going to him.
