2005 Game 7:

Dice sitting out with 4 fouls in the Finals?
Tay guarding Duncan?
Spurs walloping the Pistons in the first 2 games of the series and everyone thinking the series was over.


Stackhouse taking a boneheaded jump shot instead of driving on the last play. The Mavs would have blanked the Spurs 4-0. Now they are tied 3-3.

Even with a great coach (LB) and an up and coming one (AJ) s*&t happens. I am not remotely equating Flip with LB. I just think its too early to bury him as a dope. On top of Flips lack of adjustements, the players really did a poor job of executing in this series. The FT % was atrocious, that is indicative of the Pistons feeling the heat. Everyone shot like they were blind. If the Pistons atleast get to the Finals I think Flip would have earned his spot.

Hers is a Chauncey quote from MLive:

"Anytime you get to a Game 7, it's just will," said Pistons point guard Chauncey Billups, who had 12 points and eight rebounds. "You're not going to trick them with anything that you do and they're not going to trick us with any plays. We know them inside out. I know what those dudes had for breakfast. You're not going to trick them, so it's going to come down to will."
