Congratulations Detroit

[Laker Fan]

I only wish there was a Pistons fan on this board I could direct it to.

Much props to Detroit for their steady, maddeningly efficient defense, they have completely unravelled the Lakers and they deserve this win. Being the eternal optimist I am, I will now say LA wins the next 3 to take it in 7.

I am too devestated by this loss to go on about it, I will thank in advance the real NBA fans on this board who will come in here, as I have with every single team LA has eliminated this year, and offer us Laker fans condolences rather than gloating like haters that are happy LA lost rather than Detroit won, I appreciate in advance your words of solace.

Is crow best served grilled or fried?  I've got to get dinner going.

[Laker Fan]

Crow, like revenge, is a dish best served cold, but no seasoning, cooking method or quality of the crow, makes it taste any better. I will wait until it is official to take my first bite, I am dreading it so.

Rasheed sure looked good, didn't he?

Rasheed sure looked good, didn't he?

Sheed really hasn't gotten a chance to get into the flow early in the game.  He's been in alot of foul trouble in the first three games.  Sheed starting to play in the post like he did back in 2000 & 2001.  Since the 2001 season he's been spending alot of time on the perimeter and behind the arc.  Not even durring the Indy series did Sheed play down on the block like he's been doing against the Lakers.

My only complaint about Rasheed has been his antics after calls that didn't go the Pistons way, not once has he been T'd up yet the Lakers can't look at the refs funny without getting T'd.
