everyone knows Billups is better than Nash Nope. And he sure as hell hasn't played like it was even a possibility.

Ain't over till the fat lady sings. The NBA is loving the 7 game series.

agreed, mustang, and the NBA is doing everything they can to make sure EVERY series is going to a game 7.

Oh, as a Heat fan, let me tell you this: We are going to choke real bad today. I feel it. I hope I'm eating my words, but I don't see the Heat winning this series.

Well uglatto, if it makes you feel any better, I'm a Piston fan, but I'll be really surprised if you're right about this one. Prince is about the only Piston who's been able to score. The rest of the boys would have trouble finding the hoop with GPS and a spotlight on it. Maybe that changes tonight, but even then, they need to stop Wade and Shaq...oh, and Haslem...and Mourning...and...sheesh!

Well, I am extraordinarily happy to be wrong.

Ying Yang, Billups did his best to make you look really bad with that call.

I was kidding. Billups was horrible in the series. Sheed was horrible. Free throw shooting was horrible. When they played the Lakers they let Shaq score and shut down everybody else. It didn't happen this series. Another thing I think this series showed is that if LeBron James gets someone remotely decent as a teammate, the Cavs would be dangerous beyond belief.

Some playoff math. You shoot in the low 30% range and the other guys shoot in the mid 50% range, you lose...always. As much as the Pistons sucked though, I gotta give it up for the Heat. Shaq and Wade really came up big, and with Wade ill last night, Williams was out of his mind! The finals should be interesting.

Come on Detroit, the Suns did it and everyone knows Billups is better than Nash.
