Orlando looking better and better...they shut down last night in the 2nd quarter, let the Wolves come back, but they flipped the switch and blew them out...Dwight just denying fools on the inside...Jameer Nelson keep's playing like this, if he doesnt get a coach's nod for the all-star game it will be a dam shame...

Well Detroit beat Orlando, so that is wins against Los Angeles, Cleveland, San Antonio, and Orlando. Not too bad for a mediocre team.

 

[rtillaree 10+ year member]

Orlando just cannot shake Detroit...the physical style is hard to counter when you only have 1 Dwight Howard and no other big bodies to throw in there...if we could get us a young banger or a veteran a la Dice we could relax a lot more down there...good 2nd half of basketball, Detroit just drilling the big shots, not to mention Detroit with only 3 turnovers...If Nelson would have played like he has been of late, we would have had a much bigger advantage in taking this one...oh well, it was still a pretty good game...

Good grief where do I begin?

Dumbass, you told me awhile ago that Stuckey would be the future PG. Is obvious they are going smaller, like Phoenix and the likes and Iverson is as much a two guard as he is a point guard, you of all people should know that.

This is the present. Stuckey is still developing. The future is upcoming seasons.

So, Carmello was suspensed. Iverson still came in and put up good numbers and didn't try and do something he is not. He is a scorer and should remain that, which he is not doing in Detriot. He is not Kobe or LeBron in that aspect.

He still had the same win % in Denver as in Detroit, totally debunking your claims. They still need time to work him into the offense.

Hate the Pistons and always will. Also what is funny, you sit there and talk smack about me liking more than 1 team, yet you collect Jerseys of all kinds of teams. You are something else.

The jerseys I have that are not of Detroit teams, I do not wear outside of the house, and they have Detroit/Michigan connections like Tom brady, Braylon Edwards. Plaxico Burress, Antonio Gates, Jerome Bettis. Only ones not are Julius Peppers and Donovon McNabb

Also I thought his numbers were going down. I guess I should have checked that first as I was going on memory. I know he was just unhappy at Philly though, more of the point I was trying to make.
I am sure you just knew all those numbers without looking it up, right?........

Why is looking things up so hard for you? Type basketball-reference.com, then type Iverson. it is so ****ing simple.

Duh, Billups is more a natural PG, takes a rocket scientist to figure that one out, good one captian obvious! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif
And I have already mentioned how Stuckey has been playing in the starting line up as the starting PG and Iverson is at the two guard, did you miss that post retard? I don't think they will be missing Billups till they start to win, which they will win, but not the winning your used to. So will take time.

The Pistons are rebuilding. Unlike other teams, they are rebuilding and remaining competitive. Other teams rebuild by becoming a lottery team, the Pistons do it by dropping from a 1-2 seed to a 4-5 seed.

So you will have cap space, so what! You are struggling with Iverson, Hamilton, Prince, Stuckey and McDyess right now, which is a heck of a line up, just that their going the wrong way of going small and fast. Works in the west more so, not in the East. Look at NY, samething, just not quite the talent you guys have.

The Pistons are now on a 4 game win streak and have McDyess back in the fold. They are still figuring out their rotations. You seem to expect shit to happen overnight.

Ever since McDyess has returned, they have gotten better. That is Pistons basketball of old. A jump shooting team that doesn't turn the ball over.

Whatever ***.

Pistons still won't do shit come playoff time.

Also I don't care to take all that time to look up every stat to prove shit. I usually go based on memory, which sometimes I am right, sometimes I am wrong, whatever. You just have to google everything.........I mean everything. You really need to get out more. I honestly don't understand how your mutt could stand to be around some nerd who is online all the time.

Why is it so hard for you to type basketball-reference.com then type Iverson? Why is that so hard? Please answer. The time it took you to defend your ignorance, you could've looked up Iverson's stats. The fat bastard who has over 20k posts and works the same job as someone 9 years younger is telling me to get out more //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I post in bunches and frequently. I post in bursts at work and am rarely on on the weekends. I know it's easier to attack in this fashion then to discuss anything basketball related because you are in over your head. I've been pwning bigfagtheory in this fashion for a couple years now.

 

[Lugnutz 10+ year member]

I also could've wrapped these three posts into one but that's just how I roll.

he wants to be on the big list of top posters...his other name that he was banned under is still there //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif and when he was banned he swore this place did not matter

If that were the case, I would use my other account which has double the amount of posts as this one //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

It's ok you guys want to talk about post count since you can't hold your own in a conversation about basketball.

you are a fooonay guy, you take 1 stat and make excuses for your whole team:laugh: They are at best the 3rd best team in the east and it is a MAJOR drop off after the first 2.

So you are saying it's a major drop between Boston/Cleveland and Orlando? In fact you put Detroit ahead of Orlando so I find that satisfying. I'll let rtillare school you on the Magic. You are free at any time to post stats that debunk any I say, but it's just easier to go after post count and get off a topic that you apparently can't seem to handle.
