Good, I am glad to be the one to make you speechless, however we are typing, so that dont make sense to me.
Anyway, LeBron keeps getting better each year and smarter. Will be a different LeBron than last year.

and it's a different pistons team this year. the pistons have a center who can actually score now, the bench is deeper, as delfino has emerged as a key contributer and now it looks like flip murray has come around, plus mcdyess and hunter. also maxiell well help and can be the ben wallace type player they are missing.

plus cleveland will likely be #2 which means they won't play detroit until the eastern conference finals and i don't think they will beat miami

They have beat Miami 2 out of the 3 times this year, so I think they can.

Cleveland has as deep as a bench as Detriot. Verajeo is very good rebounder and can score inside, Damon Jones one of the better 3 pts shooters in the game, Donyell Marshall has a shit ton of depth and Sasha Pavalioc is coming into his own as well and Dainel Gibson will be a good one and probably a starter one day.

Its either pistons, or suns this year to win it all. I think its finally nash's Year!

As much as it pains me, it's Dallas' year....The Pistons only have a shot if the West's elite (Spurs, Mavs, Suns) beat each other up and soften themselves up for Detroit......

Of course I'm rooting for the Pistons but my early prognosis has them losing in the 1st or 2nd round. I think Boston and Chicago will be the class of the East. Cleveland and Detroit are the second tier, and then the rest. Miami maybe the best of the rest, but with Shaq and Wade's injury history, I don't know.

They are a lot like the 04 Pistons. I normally don't pick teams who load up on superstars like Boston, but Garnett, Allen, and Pierce are team players and I believe they can work. You don't have the Shaq and Kobe circus.

In the east, they could make the playoffs.

That franchise has to be one of the most screwed up franchises ever. They rank up their with Millen's Lions.
