How are they over-achieving? Sound defense is overachieving? 50 wins last year? On pace for 55+ this year? Can you overachieve 2 years in a row?

Difference is that the Pistons are in the Pacer's heads. They're in their kitchen. They're baking brownies with the Reggie's wife. Pacers are young and metally soft. They play mostly on emotion and raw talent. They have a bright future! But, they need to get Artest, O'Neal, Miller and the bunch in therapy so they don't shoot themselves in the foot against sound veteren teams like the Pistons.

Amen to hat. I do kinda like artests attitude, it kinda says, dont [censored] with me, almost a Rodman thing. He can get in some peoples heads in the playoffs and really help the team out, plus i didnt realize how good of a shooter he was.

Now I didnt quite understand why the Pacers went the whole 2nd half withoutplaying there backup PG, hes good.

But damnit, they need to trade Tinsley. He plays street to much. HE SUCKS. I am so tired of him sucking. he will be the sole reason we lose in the Eastern conference finals. GET RID OF HIM. HIM AND CROSHERE FOR TMSKILLS, I dont care, just get rid of him.

I used to like his play, but he trie sto be like Jason Williams to much, and he blows wide open transition oppurtunities because of that

Did you forget that we shipped the inconsistant Stackhouse for the best midrange guy in the league, and adding Billips this year? This is not the same team as last year. You also must have missed the complete demolishing the Pistons gave the Celtics a few weeks ago.

The Pistons look great. With soild D, they will go far this year. I think last year, they did rely a little too much on Stack to score for them. This year, it's spread out a little more, and the players are more consistent. That should do wonders for them in the playoffs. I actually thought they would do better last year, but it just didn't turn out that way. Watch out for this team come May and June.

ermm... That game has to be the biggest aberration of the season. 3 days BEFORE that game the Celtics where up by 2 with less than a minute to play IN DETROIT and lost the game beacuse they couldn't get a def rebound in that final minute. Oh and that was with Antoine Walker and Tony Delk sidelined by injuries. 3 days later, in Walker's first game back they get whopped by 52 at home.. Go figure....
Ok fine the Pistons are 52 points better than the Celtics...

Riiiiiiightt........

Oh btw Celtics-Pistons season series is 2-1 in favor of Det, wich reminds me... Last years regular season series was won by the Pistons too....................................

Re: Pistons Ranked #2 in Power Poll!

Well if you remember last years playoffs well, you would remember the two biggest problems for the Pistons. Kenny Anderson and Rodney Rogers. Too bad neither are Celtics anymore.

To hear smack talk from a Pacer fan, or Nets fan is one thing, but a Celtics fan? Sorry, but they arent even a contender for the Eastern Confrence. Letting Anderson and Rogers slip away while signing Vin Baker basicly did in any hope for them to take the east.
