Not much interest in this Game 7, except I am root-root-rooting for Pistons -- to LOSE. The Nets will be interesting this summer regardless of when they lose but the Pistons? Win it all and Joe D stays his course. Lose (particularly) tonite, and the great tinkerer, Larry Brown, melts down and pushes hard for changes. Maybe his changes interact with Rox changes? Okur and Billups gone if they lose tonite? Either or both might look good in the Toy Shop? Anyway, it will be more fun to watch what happens in Motown if Brooklynets win tonite!
I have to admit, that I really liked Detroit and was rooting for them. HEAVILY. However, after Brown spouted off his mouth, I have found that I am rooting for the Nets instead. Just want to see Brown put in his place.
Somehow I feel Detroit will come out of the east. Their defense is much better than Indiana's defense.
Regardless of who wins, the real loser will be the viewers. Watching the Eastern Conference Finals will be more painful than circumscision.
Well, if Detroit makes the finals against the Lakers, Darko will finally be a good pick. Those 6 fouls off the bench, phenominal. Much better than the 15 ppg they would have gotten from Melo. Now if you'll excuse me, I must send my daily thank you note to Joe Dumars.
The dumbest move still belongs to Portland for picking Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan at #2. If the Rockets took Jay Williams at #1 over Yao, we could've surpassed Portland's feat.
