Great way to close out the series. The starters came out clicking and went up 10-0, and there was no turning back. CB and Rip combined for 17-25 and 44 points...Rip was +33 for the game, and CB was +37! The bench struggled at the beginning of the 2nd quarter, but things turned back around with a lineup of CB, Rip, Stuckey, Dice, and Sheed. The starters pushed things out again in the 3rd quarter to make it a complete blowout with a meaningless 4th quarter.

Things were looking pretty bleak at halftime of Game 4, but the Pistons absolutely dominated ever since then. The bad start to the series was irritating, but there certainly wasn't much to complain about ever since "the switch" flipped back on.
