1st round action begins with the Pistons hosting the Sixers. Pistons ended the season on a 4 game winning streak while the Sixers ended on a 4 game losing streak. Teams split the 4 game season series 2-2. Note: Pistons.com has us listed on Sat with no time and nba.com and espn.com have us starting on Sun at 6pm so I am going with that.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM I believe this is the third time in the past six years that Pistons play Philly in the playoffs.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM We have been playing Philly and Milwaukee a lot these last few years in the first round.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM i'll be there...trying something new...red maxiell jersey instead of blue prince jersey. ready to rock and roll!!
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM yeah i think i did take some with my new camera but never uploaded lol. i'll be in much worse seats for the playoffs but i do have a camera that's small enough to carry with me, so i will. for real!
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM I'm going. I'll take some pictures. My seat is front row of Upper section right on mid-court. Sweet action. Seeing as you are wearing a different jersey, are you taking the other car as well Warthog?
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM well my buddy is probably going to drive for game one, if not my car should be fixed and i'll be taking that. i have to find out which section we're in...it's row 7 center court. it'll be cool if it's on the same side.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM Pistons need to offer up a serious beatdown in Game 1 to send the proverbial message. The Sixers need to know in the 1st Q of game 1 that they don`t have a chance. Not to mention this series does not need to go past 5 games at the most.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM Pistons in 6.....It'll seem much LONGER though...you know how our guys can be..
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM curiously enough - espn experts do not believe that pistons can win in 4, most of them predict pistons in 5-6. I see no need for more than 4 games, though.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM There's no need, I agree with that, but it all depends if the Pistons are on for all 4 games then it should be a sweep.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM Sixers are fiesty. They play the type of ball that annoys our starting 5. We can dominate them, but it will take a lot of real effort from Sheed.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM 8.8 DR, can't let Phillys youth get confident. Open the gates to the Reserve and let the Zoo out. At least 50 player minutes total.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM First-round matchup: Pistons vs. Sixers - Detroit Pistons Basketball: News, Blogs, Photos, Audio, Schedule & Stats - MLive.com Rating the matchups; We have the advantage according to the writer in all categories except one. Although i think the forward match-up is equal if not tilted in the Sixer's favor.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM The old saying with this group is they can turn it on when needed. We have all been there. The click has been turning into a clack. It will probably go to a game seven. If Philly can stay out of foul trouble, then they could make it interesting for game seven. Each will steal a game from one another.
Re: 1st Round Game 1 - Sixers Sun Apr 20 6PM ESPN - Scouts Inc. Scouting Breakdown: Sixers vs. Pistons - NBA i like this breakdown better... pistons in 4..easy
