I don't see what's wrong with that comment. Did you expect him to say "we don't have a chance in game 5?" or "we need to win game 5"? Be realistic. The NBA needs more trash talking, because it would make the NBA more exciting to watch. Kobe has the ego, icon, and an elite game to say that. If others say that, they would fail on court. I know for a fact that he's going to translate those words to 40 points in game 5 tonight. |

Halalua! God must exist because my prayers have been answered.
Praise Jesus the LAKERS have LOST
HATERS!!!
Laker hater here too.
Good to see them loose.
Especially to a team like the 04 Pistons. They deserve it.
Wow, amazing. The Lakers played way worse than I thought. Is it because of Piston's defense that made them look like playing undetermined? If not, then the Lakers should be ashamed of themselves. First of all, I would like to say congratulations to the 2004 NBA champions, the Detroit Pistons. They deserved what they worked for the whole season. All those ups and downs, but they perservered more than any other team, and they managed to stay as one unit. Big ups to the Lakers. They made this series worth watching for the fans, and it was a better series than last year's. They deserved to be in the finals, and they were a good contender for the Pistons. Ben Wallace was the generator with all his relentless hustling, defense, and scoring, while every other Piston especially Billups benefited from that.
Big ups to Malone. He was the backbone of the Lakers this season, and he was the reason why they got to the finals. I wish that he will remain a Laker, along with the other 3 hall of famers, and I hope they try to win it next year. Malone's career is far from over because he hasn't won a championship yet. If he wasn't in shape as he is now, he would of retired 4 years ago, and he said that himself. I believe he can endure for 2 more years considering that. Untill he wins that covet, we can take our hats off to him and make him leave the game in a fashionable way.
If the Lakers played at their best throughout the whole series, they would of had a higher possibility of winning it. Unfortunately, the Pistons exploited every answer to the Laker's problems, especially on defense, and just unexpectedly pummeling the Lakers in 5. It's ironic how an elite player in Kobe couldn't translate his words on the court. I thought it was a fact that the Lakers were going to own the Pistons in game 5. No offense to Kobe, I don't even think it's an offensive attack on him, but he should of pulled a Jordan and dominated the whole Pistons. I understand that Jordan struggled in '89 and '90 versus the Pistons, and I understand that Jordan's student was put in the same pressure, but I don't even think this Piston team were any better on defense than those Pistons. Their only great true defender is Wallace. Prince is always a darkhorse on defense. He will stop players on certain occasions, but he can never stop Kobe. Kobe was always driving in which was a good thing as he got his free throws, but he should of drove in for the attempts that he bricked the shots. I don't even remember him making atleast 5 jumpers. The Laker's offensive set is pretty useless when it comes to facing the Pistons. They do the triangle motion, and when Shaq passes out to his teammate, they brick the shot. I think they should of done other plays that would make the Pistons think twice. If Payton was actually determined for the championship, the Lakers wouldn't of been struggling, and they would of most likely won the series in 6, which I predicted before it started.
When Darko got his garbage time, he didn't do anything that would leave a last impression on the fans and his team. He bricked like 5 shots including the free throws, and he got his pocket stolen like 2 times. It seemed like he was so nervous that he was on a NBA court with a 22,000 fans watching him with every other player on the court who's better than him. I don't understand how most of you see a bright future in him. If you do, so be it. He can either be a star in the league, or he might be a bust. I see him leaning more to the negative side.
During the presentation for the Finals MVP and the NBA champions, Darko was at the back of the swarm. The light was shining on the whole swarm, and it was leaving out Darko LOL. I never even saw Darko getting a chance to touch the trophy. All of the members of the Pistons except him were touching the trophy and going crazy while he was just at the back like a Pistons spectator. See, he knew he didn't earn it. Imagine if he contributed to their ring, you would see him in the front of the swarm kissing and feeling the trophy. For 30 years altogether in college and NBA as coach, Larry Brown is the first NBA coach ever to win a championship on both levels. In 22 years, he has been waiting for this his whole life. He's truely one of the greatest coaches in history. His lack of rings doesn't show it, but his strategy creations and very smart decisions for the team in certain difficult circumstances overcomes that. He is a coach that eats and breathes basketball. You will only come across a very few coaches like him. I just found out that Larry Brown was available in open arms for the Raptors before the season started, but they passed him LOL. They passed up a coach who was the best strategy creater, and arguably the best current coach for a rookie coach would had no brains, but a somehow "firey" mindset. They said he was a defensive minded coach, but the Raptors were the worst defensive team in the season. My team would of automatically been in the playoffs if he was our coach. He would of made those scrubs such as Moiso, Archibald drastically better. That was probably the primary reason why that stupid Grunwald got fired as General Manager.
The Lakers got beat so bad that the owner Jerry Buss left with 3 mins left in the third quarter. Pistons were just the better TEAM. Congrats Coach Larry Brown and the PISTONS!
my dad was putting $ on the Pistons but it was too late 
it was 7 to 1 for the Lakers...heh
Pistons will obliterate the Lakers...they're goin down!!
I wanted to go back and quote all those who thought the Lakers were gonna pull out of this series ahead...

Fuck you Detroit, for ruining basketball forever...
Who wants to watch a game based entirely on defence? Low scoring, shitloads of fouls and freethrows YAY! 48 minutes of playing time turns into over 3 hours with all timeouts and freethrows and dicking around they do...
Now everyone is going to look at Detriot's success and realise that a team full of scorers (Mavs, Kings etc) has no hope of winning a championship and we are going to see alot of boring my zone defence is better than your zone defence games in the future.
i really doubt detroit could repeat...they wooped the lakers but thats cause the lakers sucked..san antonio,minesota or dallas would beat detroit i think...not a chance for a repeat. enjoy this one.

| Originally posted by Mattsanity Why would you even mention Dallas? I don't think any of those teams would beat the Pistons. I don't think any team in the NBA can currently beat the Pistons. If their relentless 'A' game 0\/\/|\|3I) the Lakers, while the Lakers have owned all 3 before, then they don't even have a chance versus the Pistons. They have too much depth, and strategies that Zen Master Larry exploits to make every team make adjustments, but worse ones. When the Laker's triangle offense was screwed, what other offense did they have? All they had was Kobe getting stripped while Shaq was rarely dunking on Ben and he wasn't even making his free throws. |
