i think the diff in this game for Det was Taushaun Prince...he stepped up, bailed them out, and shot the best field goal percentage out of all of the pistons, he shot 11-17, i think he had a 3 late in the game that put the Pistons up and help them win it....he scored 29. He doesn't play as well on the road...that can be critical for the Pistons....but i am mainly hoping Miami wins the series....we'll just have to wait and see...it is anyones game...Piston's backcourt of Hamilton and Billups shoot 11-33, i think for the game....they got bailed out by T. Prince. :bonk:


Yeah, Prince is the only guy I admire in the Pistons' lineup. Not only does he have a decent offensive game, but is also great at the defensive end :applaud: . I remember the Pistons-Pacers series last year and in 2004, this guy played great back then when Larry Brown is the one coaching the Pistons. His game somewhat changed when Saunders took over :shakehead: . Good thing he rejuvinated himself in this game.

yeah, they play great D, that is what got them this far....
although they have had their share of prb's on road games...cause if they cannot get a win in Miami, they are done... :beaten: :beaten:

Mav's-Phx tmrw...

pressures on...Mavericks..

if Nowitzki doesn't bounce back with a good game, and J Terry, and Josh Howard, Stackhouse aren't contributing....Mavericks will suffer. But they are playing at home, pressures on... :sweat: :sweat:

look for phx to continue to Run....question is, R. Bell going to play for game #5

Yeah, it's all even now so the Mavs should win that one to take back the lead.

Dallas ran away down the stretch, but Phoenix might come back strong when they get back home.
2 Jun 2006, 12:16 #2334
Dirk scores 50!, Howard scores 23....
Dallas wins 116-101 up 3-2, back to Phx for game #6, pressure back on Phx....or go home. :beaten: :bonk:
2 Jun 2006, 12:17 #2335
Yeah, expect Phoenix to give their all to win game 6 at their home. I just hope Dallas would do more from what they did earlier to win game 6 :fingerscrossed:

I am not saying it is Dallas' series yet.....Phx is still tough to beat at home...and road games are going to be harder for the visiting game...

i am just amazed at Dirk's bounce back game...and in a huge huge way... :bonk:

Yeah, that's why Dallas should do more to contain Phoenix at their home. They did beat the Spurs in San Antonio, so there is a possibility that they can do the same in Phoenix :sweat:

ok, the game for tmrw,

Miami needs a third guy to step up...as one of the TNT announcers had mentioned...

besides wade/shaq....
Antoine Walker needs to come up with some decent numbers, and Williams, and Payton....and if Alonzo can add 6-8 points, that would be a bonus....Also, Haslem if he can add atleast 6 points, that will help too.
But what they really need to secure is their freethrows and improve on it for game #6 to stand a chance at moving on, otherwise Det for game #7, and Miami doesn't want that. :sweat: :crazy:

I think the supporting cast of the Heat is doing their job in this series, and that's why they are on the lead. Game 5 might be just one of those unlucky days for those guys. But yeah, they should shake off that bad luck and step up in game 6 :fingerscrossed:
