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 !!!!!!

dude McDyess' arms were extended over Dwight. He has to have his arms straight up. Dwight gets called for that type of foul all the time. That was a good call. Not so sure about the Sheed call (i can't recall what it was to be honest).

But question...did any of those result in 3 points and a significant swing in momentum? No. Which by the way, if you wanted to get into it, Sheed was yelling at the refs after the foul and was lucky not to get a tech, and when McDyess slammed his mask down on the floor i was surprised he didn't get a tech (you can't slam a ball but you can slam a face mask?).

Either way, hopefully the Magic can come back and win two in Orlando. if not Magic fans are going to be very upset over this for a LONG time. We already feel the Pistons get all the calls, are allowed to play much more physical than any other team in the league (i've felt this way ever since they won the championship), and are generally a very arrogant group of players. They won one championship and they act like they're the greatest team to ever grace the hardwood.

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

How can you strip a player without touching the ball?

our whole front line almost fouled out and ORLANDO is complaining about the officiating...wow

The way Hedo was flailing about it look like it went off his leg

Thats your rational. It went off hedos leg....Ive Tivoed that play upwards of 20 times and your going to say after hedo was stripped it went off his leg?

I understand your happy your team won, but looking at what ACTUALLY happened in reality its obvious that it should have been orlando ball.

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

We will.

But crying like you are all offended and devastated by that comment makes you look like....

A) A librarian

or

B) Six years old.

Are you that dense? Players get stripped and have the ball go off them all the time. Usually because the defending player is swiping downwards and the ball winds up going off the offensive players leg. This is not rocket science.

how can detroit fans come in here and call the magic cry babies when fans of other teams call BS as well? doesn't that mean the magic fans AREN'T being homers? unless other fans of different nba teams are also homers of the magic?

at the end of the day...

magic suck

I thought Orlando got screwed on some calls, but they also played some ugly basketball to close out the game

Did you Magic fans even watch the same play? Hedo rebounded it, was off balance, had no chance of getting up a shot so he tried drawing a foul on Maxiell and flailed and Maxiell didnt even get in the way and the ball went out. Hedo was the only one to touch it.

Here come the Detroit fans trying to justify it.

You guys are completely forgetting about the mental standpoint. I forgot the score lmao, but its a 3 **** point swing. its different coming back than having a lead. It possibly could of been as high as 7

Lol yes the Pistons get all the calls because obviously there is a league wide conspiracy that wants them to win. The league wants to see a repeat worst rated finals ever again with Detroit, instead of having a money maker in Howard make it. Yeah some calls were crap for you guys, but there were some horrible ones for us too. And if your complaining about the 3 pointer, we won by more then three, so it doesn't matter in the end. And don't bring up momentum, good teams take back the momentum regardless of the situation.

The Magic got screwed bottomline.

Pistons fan argue all they want but that ''guess-timation'' by the refs wrongfully changed the entire complextion of the game.

Maybe if the if the refs wave it off the Pistons still win but an offical's ''guess-timation'' changed the complextion of a critical playoff game.

What a joke.If I was a Magic I would be irate.

It's just mind boggling.

That end of third quarter play happened, and everyone knew it didn't count. Me, my family, the commentators, the players, the coaches, and the sideline reporters.

Everybody.

Except one man. That man was Steve Javie.

I don't care how your Orlando Tragic fans want to look at it. If you ever wish severe harm to players regardless of being angry over a game or not is just plain ignorant. I've seen enough of it. Its a sport, grow up these people are human being and don't deserve harm wished upon anyone for any reason ever.

good game pistons, the better team won tonight


but i will still cry
