I hope Flip has some time to get down to the Epcot Center when he's in Orlando. I know he usually likes to take his field trips in the conference finals, but this is too good a chance to pass up.

I 'm happy we got the win and the 3 pointer really came in handy, but since there is no precident for this, the right thing to do would have been to reset the clock back to 5.1 and start over by having the Pistons take the ball out again. I mean just think if this had had happen to the Pistons we would have had 200 post thead on this subject alone, expecially if we had lost by less than three points.



The issue is for tomorrows game is to not allow so many wide open three's. Keep them honest inside the arc and continue to force turnovers. = Victory for Pistons

I saw this. It was stickied on some ORL board. I wonder if it actually has any sort of effect. I've never done anything like that, but i did write an e-mail one time to some DET beat writer to tell him his article was stupid (not in so many words, but i felt like it was a stern letter ) He actually responded and was all trying to explain his thought process, and then i felt bad LOL.

If Detroit ends up winning the championship, I heard they are going to put an asterisk by their name because of clock gate.

If the clock functions correctly tonight, we could be in big trouble.

Stan Van Gundy should wear a big Flava Flav type clock on the side line tonight.

I'm not looking for ALL the credit but the Pistons are 5-0 since I went to the Eddie Griffin avatar.

So far this year they are 6-0 when I wear my Pistons ball cap while I watch the game, and 0-2 when I don't. I'm not one to normally think I have any kind of influence on the outcome of games, but...
