I dunno. I admit to being confused by the last two games. Alot of times I thought we were playing okay, and the score was close. Then we were playing really well for a spell and the score was still close. Then we played really badly, and the score was even closer and we won by 3.

Also I'm not sure this is the usual Pistons malaise. I'm beginning to wonder whether our team, as a team, not individually is flattening out some. I see the desire for the win, and I see the effort for the win, but what I don't see is the shots falling and the propensity for dominance on the offensive end.

There is a certain staleness setting in, but maybe it just seems that way because I really hate this "grind-it-out-who-can-play-uglier-and-not-lose" style.

This worries me. I sure would like to see a solid performance of our offense before we go into the Finals. If we play 4-7 grind it out games against this team and then try to kick it up another level for the Finals, I don't know. It just worries me.

Where is our team from Games 1 and 2 in the Bulls series? We haven 't seen them for a while, as a team. Yeah Sheed, Rip, JMaz playing well...but as a team. We need our whole team playing at a high level real real sooon.

The Spurs may have gotten creamed last night, but they look better than we do right now and they've had to play better opponents, which makes you sharp. Tired yeah but also sharp. They aren't playing down to anyone, they are playing their game. Let's play our game Detroit!

C'mon Pistons! Show us what you got!!! Show us who's ready to roll right through the Cavs and pick up speed and power as we approach the Finals! Let's go to Work!

We Need Shot Selection and Made Shots! DO IT!!! Go Pistons!
