I'm not even gonna bother reading the thread because I know exactly what I'll see; a bunch of crying. Yes, it was a bad call at the end of the 3rd quarter. But ya know what? There were plenty of other bad calls in the game going both ways. That one was just particularly noticeable because of the circumstances under which it occurred.

You think any Piston fan is happy about it? We're gonna have to see it replayed on SportsCenter a million times and have to listen to fans cry about it non-stop for the next 48 hours and maybe longer. But it is what it is. The refs are part of the game and right now Detroit is up 2-0. Deal with it.

This is one of the biggest screwjobs I have seen in the NBA, and I have been watching for quite a while.

This is just.....

Wow....

There will always be a shadow over this one.

I hope Stan goes crazy in his conference and calls out these good-for-nothing self-righteous piece of **** referees for what they are- FUUUUCCKKING SHHIIIIITTTT!

I was hoping after we hit that 3pter to win going away so this wouldn't be an issue. Ah well. Magic had plenty of chances to win the game, turnovers, idiotic fouls (Dooling ) poor shot selection (Hedo ) cost them.

Whatever, the only thing I sympathize with is the Billups 3 at the end of the third quarter that shoulda been a re-do, THATS IT.

Everything else is just the usual losing team bitching. Of course, they dont give a crap about the BS fouls that sent Sheed to the bench for 3 minutes down the stretch or that fouled out McDyess, no no, only fouls on the Magic are BS, none of the ones on the Pistons. As a matter of fact, the Magic didn't commit any fouls and the Pistons committed double the fouls they called for !!!!!!

NBATV in complete damage control mode right now. Pretty hilarious.

Because Hedo was off balance and threw it out of bounds trying to flop?

Even the commentator said Theo knocked the ball out of bounds. Even if you don't call the foul the ball should have went to the Magic.

The Refs screwed us. Simple as that.

I'm sending Rashard Lewis a letter demanding he reimburse my bet on the Magic, he should be able to afford it.

Spoken like a guy who is acustomed to watching the Pistons given games and paraded to the free throw line. If you think that 3 pointer is the only screwjob in this game then you may want to check the prescription on those blue shaded glasses.

^ what about shard goes up for the layup..no call..dwight with offensive rebound goes up..no foul called...hedo grabs it..gets shoved out and its magically pistons ball..

You're right, I forgot to mention the Pistons big men having to ride the bench in the 4th. PS Orlando is also blue shaded.

Since when does Stern or league want to see the Pistons advance? This notion that we are somehow the darlings of the league is absurd. Go cry in a corner.

Im so pissed im shaking. I cant believe what just took place. I simply cannot believe it.

Then look at it like this. Your team is down 2-0 in the series. Deal with it crybabies.

He said he stripped him, he didn't say anything about him knocking it out of bounds or it being a bad call.

Don't even bring that garbage. None of the Pistons fans are denying the terrible call involving the game clock at the end of the 3rd quarter. It was a terrible break for Orlando, but the clock operator is from Minnesota so he wasn't favoring the Pistons and the rule states that the refs can't look at replay unless the clock is all zeros.

Dude, the refs always stop the play if the clock didn't start or gets jammed. And they didn't do it even though the Magic players were telling them. No defending why the refs didn't stop play. Just ridiculous.

are you kidding? do you not understand ANYTHING about momentum? Not only are those 3 points extremely important, but it gave Detroit their momentum back. They were up 10 at halftime and were about to be down 1 going into the 4th quarter. That changes everything.

Magic get robbed. Don't be surprised if SVG says some stuff to get a fine in his press conference.

I'd be surprised if that whining baby didn't complain after a game...
