The buzzer beater josh had wasant the (luckiest bounce ever seen) Ive seen alot of shots fall like that.Luckiest bounce would have been it hitting the backboard, then hitting the rim, then bounce up,then come back down rattle around a bunch then go in.Buzzer beater is a buzzer beater,preseason or not those are always fun and feel good.

This type of response is common place. If you go into another team's forum and try to downplay their win, their fans will band together and and defend their team. This is especially true for a franchise like the Pistons...we have had so much history and so much success here in the D. That imo, is the one of the barometers of a true, hardcore fan. I don't believe any hardcore fan of one team is 100% objective. Yesterday I yelled out of happiness when we won, and I consider myself to be very stoic. I don't get excited that easily. The pistons are the only team in the league that truly make me excited when they win. This is true for a lot of the other posters here.

We've had to endure some tough years recently. Now that things are looking up, it feels good and a bit of overreaction is to be expected.

It's impossible to not overreact to a buzzer beater, especially in such a fashion. Literally any game at any level that has a game clock and ended like that would be overtly celebrated. And like Roc said, we're all ready from some basketball.
Count that baby and a foul!
