Did Wade forget Darko? I know he didn't really play, but he went to the finals first.

People forget also that the Heat were about a minute from the Finals last year.

The Heat have played well.

There is absolutely no doubt that the Pistons lost this series with their horrible shooting.

The Pistons at their best are significantly better than the Heat at their best.

How do you know?

There is never a situation where both teams are playing their absolute best. All you have is what happened. Detroit couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with their jumpers, while Miami knocked down better than 50% of their shots over the course of the series. Result: Stu Jackson just handed a trophy to Arison and Riley...

You answered your own question, unless you really think that either team would usually shoot either of their percentages.

The Pistons definitely looked just aweful for the last 2 series, but aside from this last game, they weren't really blown out.

So the Pistons are just a bunch of soft pussies who decided not to play their best in the ECF, despite losing a GAME 7 IN THE FINALS LAST YEAR? Because you can't have it both ways.

OK, maybe they should switch to a best of 15 format.

Saunders gives the Heat credit for holding them down, but dms doesn't. Let me check the Credibility Meter...

If the Pistons played their best, the Heat could not have won the series.

The Pistons did not play their best.

Hmmm, looks like I can have it both ways. Call them pussies if you want, cause they've shown they are, but don't be stupid.

I've said the Heat played well. What credit do you want me to give them? They played well, well enough to win the series. They're just not a good enough team to beat the Pistons at their best.

You're right, I'm being retarded. The better team can never lose in a 7-game series.
