the refs **** us. those two memphis games were wins. the league admitted the wrong calls in both games down the stretch. we should have 46 wins right now and the 7th seed. really sucks

I just cannot believe there are some in that thread picking Lowery over George. Not surprisingly its a knicks fan who I have the second lowest opinion of in terms of fanbases.

Knicks and Raptor fans are just dilluted,

Yeah I really think we had a shot at upsetting the Raps. They always seem to falter in the playoffs.

With Cleveland it's not a question of whether or not we will lose imo, but rather how many games we manage to take.

Yeah it's the Raptors curse. They will never win a chip let alone do well in the post-season.

We had a better chance of an upset than the current Cavs. The last few games for Lebron has been monstrous and it'll likely carry over.

Also, looking like the easiest sweep the Warriors will ever have. HOU is just mentally dead.

Just thinking about how theres a good number of ex-pistons in the playoffs, especially considering how bad we were when they played for us (granted a lot of them are role players now instead of starters)

Pacers - Stuckey
Rockets - JSMoove (And DMo ;) )
Celtics - Amir and Jerebko
Mavs - Villanueva
Thunder - Singler... and somehow Nazr is still in the league
Cavs - Grand Rapids Drive legend Dahntay Jones

I think that's everyone unless I'm forgetting somebody

Worst part is, most of them were starters for us at one point. That is how bad the Pistons have been. The talent difference between then and now is night and day.

Would still rather have this matchup against the cavs,our team will get so much more experience playing the best team in the east,then playing a team that fall apart in the playoffs.

I would take Amir back at thats it. Its amazing how bad Singler has been and how much is contract is. Dodged a bullet. Villanueva doesn't suprise me, because his contract is for $1.5 which isn't that bad. Nazr will sign contracts for as long as he can. And Josh Smiths' espn page picture looks like he just woke up. Not really news, but I just am indifferent towards him.

The Jonas Brother dominated the first half for Toronto - 19 & 10 in 17 minutes...

But the Raps only lead by 5!

Gonna be an interesting 2nd half cause if the Pacers steal both...Real GM probably goes into lockdown lol
