I hafta agree with bballJay that the bench hasn't been given an opportunity to show their stuff yet. Also, yes...we could be 6-3...we also could be world champions after last year. But we are not. We ARE 8-1. I think the weaknesses can and will be addressed.
I'm not saying that it won't turn out that you are absolutely correct. But I just won't let one loss bother me any more than I will let an isolated great Lions victory excite me.
Dallas looked like world beaters last night. They are a very good team and the Pistons were flat and tired. If it were a 7 game series I'd bet on Detroit.
