I see your logic, yes the Pistons have decided that KG will cover McNice on defense. Because that is in their hands.

No matter what you say you=fail with this argument.

:nonono:

You misunderstood. He meant that Detroit puts Antonio on KG in the first 3 quarters, and then SHeed on him on the 4th on defense. KG guards Rasheed the whole game.

Regardless, suggesting that KG is choking is just moronic. He's had one or two "bad games" in the playoffs, and they were still solid. He's dominated in this series for the most part, and last night his shots just were not falling. I mean his 20 & 10 on better FG and FT% clearly can't match Sheed's 14 & 6. :bowdown:

AND a major rape sandwich courtesy of Antonio McDyess who lit KG up to the tune of 21 points and 16 rebounds on 57% shooting


no that's what he said. The second part, which is not at all correlated with his original statement is something he said to take attention away from his fail.

No matter how you want to spin it, when The Lottery Ticket failed miserably yesterday. When his team needed him to step up he shut up and got shutdown.


I thought you were joking for a while, but you really are just a moron.

if we really had 3 all-stars showing up, playoffs would have been fairly easy.

Maybe I am, but that doesn't change the fact that my last statement was 100% true.

1. The Pistons do have McDyess play KG for the majority of the game and then switch Wallace onto Garnett in the later stages of the game.

2. KG did come up short yesterday.

No, you said McDyess dropped 21/16 on KG.

And you last statement has no relevance to your orginal statement to wich you were supposively replying to me for calling you out as fail with that statement.


Calm down though, NetsForce is a blind hater but he throws some comedy in there. So Netsforce is a bit of a dick, so am I. I like him.

Yeah, he's pretty good, gotta give credit, the Lottery ticket was pretty clever.

Still, I'd respect you more if you didn't pull a Dirk whenever KG dominates the Pistons like the first 3 games.

As mentioned before, once again the Cs/Pistons are not mentioned in ESPN's the Daily Dime the day of their game following the Lakers/Spurs game. But, I guarantee tomorrow, there will be an update tomorrow on the Lakers/Spurs. ESPN really sucks.

I wonder what the stats are for game 5 winner winning the series.

It has to be something silly like 78%

Because.. well everyone has to think the winner of game 5 will win this one.

y isnt anyone talking about this series.

should be a great game tonight. its one of those where i have no idea who will win this. both teams need to show IMMENSE intensity. because of this i'll give the slight edge to the Celts. THe pistons have a way of coming out flat in games where you think they would know better.

I really don't know what to think about this game. The Pistons could come out flat and get blown out. It could be a hard fought struggle that goes down to the wire with either team winning.


I never worked for Best Buy although I wish I knew someone that does; I spend enough damn money in there.

theres no coverage of this series anywhere
