No offense but if you are bored with following a team like the Pistons with the kind of success they have had then maybe its time to find a new team or sport to watch. |
Where did i say i was bored watching the Pistons? I said i was bored watching the All-Star game, and pointed out the Pistons aren't exactly suited for that style of play.
When watching an actual NBA game it's fun to watch players that play team winning basketball. The All-Star game is not about that. It's about individual great players and great plays; Alley-oops, crossovers, sick dunks, great passes, etc.
If it was about team we could have the Spurs players play eachother. I'm sure people would love that.
Rip and Chauncey are good players on a great team that play well together, but you can't tell me either one of them is a "star". I'm not saying they shouldn't have been all-stars; i'm just saying they're not exactly going to wow you.
If the crowd response was any indication, most ppl there weren't exactly thrilled watching the game. I like that it was close and competitive in the 4th so maybe i'll just FF to there next time.
edited to add;
I take that back about the Spurs. Ginobli and Parker at the least would be extremely entertaining.
