Orlando was above average on the road this year, one road win in Detroit puts the pressure on the Pistons to win in Orlando. We have played very well at home and need to think about one win at a time.
Many experts have said a 3-1 lead could always turn into a disaster. One tough road win for the road team in game 5, a dominant performance at home for game 6 and the underdogs have the momentum going into game 7.
Billups is a big part of this series, however Detroit is at its best as a team. The team beat us today. Its very rare a Piston player goes for over 30 points.
Hamilton did it today, however usually the Pistons could win efficiently with every player scoring consistently so it proves that we must stop the team and not just settle with one player being absent because every component of the Pistons is a weapon. Hence Prince was mr. Big shot today.
Team Defense, and better rebounding starts our fast break. We must always be on attack mode. We can do it, its not over. Our guys have heart.
Howard needs to get more touches so he can consistently be aggressive on defense, but the goal for us must be to average at least 25 points a quarter. Anything over a 100 points for the game gives us a great chance to win.
We can do it. Two games have been decided by the last play of the game. We are 0-2 in those situations. However let it be known we can compete with these guys. One or two big shots in those two losses and we have a 3-1 lead, so we can indeed win 3 games to upset the Pistons.
Have faith.
