I'm breaking out the king of rock'n roll avatar for good luck.

I don`t know about everyone else but Im still pissed about game 4. The hell I caught at work because of gaame 4 I wouldn`t wish on anyone.

Anyway, it`s over, done with. Believe it or not as long as Sheed`s ankle heals ok we will be ok. I will get worried when the Pistons drop a game at home. If and when that happens we have a serious problem.

We are capable of winning on the road, however, if we lose every single road game and win every single home game we win a championship.

Strange way to look at things but sometimes this is a strange team......

Pistons will take the next two...

i'll be back at the palace so things will return to normal and you guys can count on a victory!!

The real Detroit Pistons will show up for this game. I expect to see energy and offensive flow and steals and rebounds and tipped balls...and a Piston victory.

Good nite sweet Prince.

i'm gonna enjoy this game. i hope y'all do to. good luck everyone!

Time to see this thing for what it is, or has become anyway, and that is a freakin dogfight. Yeah we’re still the biggest dog on the block, but I hope the name on the tag doesn’t say G-O-L-I-A-T-H. Not many of us considered this a series that could go the distance but now its time to send the women and children inside and prepare to bring an intense battle for the duration.


Our first foray into Cleveland is history, what’s done is done, or should I say UN-done. I only hope we (Flip & Co.) have lernt from their (well ok, OUR) mistake of figuring on winning by virtue of showing up.


Hadn’t figured on having to breakout our hard earned, brand spanking, shiney new, one of a kind weapon to trump the considerable power of King James but here goes.

H. C. A.


Its power is omnipotent and 99.99% pure. It is the silvery lining to the “we can’t throw the ball in the ocean”, black cloud. It’s the big warm fuzzy. It bails our azzes out of Big Trouble In Little China Cleveland. What I’m saying is it’s the big stick that lets you walk softly.




Riiiiiiiing !!!!! Wakey Wakey now.
Time to release the pride, get down and dirty, and scratch and claw our way through a BEST 2 OUT OF 3. Got all summer to apologize for whatever hurt is inflicted today. We must put our hard earned advantage to good use and try to beat the fight out of the "Calves". GO PISTONS !!!!!

I expect a blow out, the starters will take control and not allow Flip to mess this up, however I've been reading and hearing some things that have made me concerned.

First, Flip said he thought the small ball unit played well at the end of last game. I guess he didn't notice that we lost, and that that unit didn't score the last 3 minutes.

2nd, Flip criticized Tay's coverage of Lebron and praised Evans', that just scares me.

3rd, Flip appears to be talking up Maurice to the papers.

4th, Evans seems to think that he's an integral part of this team. Why on earth was he mentioned more in the Freep and Detnews this morning than any other Piston. WTF is going on, am I in bizzarro world?

5th, I've still not heard from Flip, nor has a single Detroit writer asked why Dice didn't sub for Sheed.

perhaps, but they went on a run before that to get the game close.

several reporters asked, and it was the same answer about the small ball. evans' finger might be broken so we'll see how that impacts his minutes.
