Oh, then that must have been in the second half after I left.

So whats it going to be for the next series, Brian?

Pistons in 5 games or 6 games?

I may not be the most popular person in the pistons forum after this but sadly the pistons run will end here. Its tough coming to that conclusion as a pistons fan but sometimes you just have to face facts. As good as Ben and Rasheed are they won't be able to shut down O'Neal over a 7 game series. Tay's a good defender but he had his problems guarding Jefferson and last time I checked Kobe is about 72 times better than RJ offensively. I like the Chauncey/GP matchup unforunetaly LB doesn't like his PG to score or at least make scoring his first option. Rip will be able to get his points but unless he drops 40 points every game that won't be enough to win 4 games. We do have a better bench but this is the finals Kobe and Shaq will play at least 40 minutes. So while Okur can run circles around Slava Medvedenko its only going last for about 4 minutes before Jackson gets disgusted and puts Shaq back in the game. I intially thought the Lakers would win it in 5 but I will give my pistons more credit and say Lakers in 6.
