Re: The refs have drastically favored the Heat so far.
Detroit played "well" offensively and shot only 42.9%.
Detroit played "well" defensively and Miami still shot 44.2% even with Shaq missing some of his gimmes.
Miami shoots 30% from the free throw line. Payton 0/2, Haslem 0/3, and Wade 1/3 give them 4 of those free throws and this game is a little different down the stretch and Shaq/Wade wouldn't be sitting the last 2 minutes.
Detroit won this game but things just don't look that promising for Game 6. If Detroit can finally show up and play like the Pistons who won a championship this series is their's for the taking, but it's been awhile since you've seen those Pistons and there's no sign they are coming back in time to save the season...shoot, even if they do show up it might be too late to save the season...
