Serously. All they have to do is something that's never been done before...

That's one way to look at it. The other way is the team that wins Game 5 wins the series 83% of the time. Combine those 2 and I like our chances.

If they win tomorrow and monday things will get even more interesting.

Is that really true, a Game 7 wouldn't be until Monday Night ?

Why does ABC have the NBA rights if they aren't interested in televising the game on a Sunday afternoon ?

The problem is with the arena, not TV or the NBA. The women’s team has a game scheduled one day and there’s a concert scheduled the other. That’s why it’s Monday. In a way, that’s not so bad. If the Bulls win at home but lose game 7 on the road, there’s only a 24 hour mourning period. The lottery is Tuesday night.

After the Bulls went down 3 - 0, my wife and I were watching the news. Everyone was saying how the series was over. I told my wife that no one in the NBA (and hardly ever in sports) has come back from 3 - 0. She of all people said it's not impossible. She mentioned that the Bulls won four in a row against Miami (and that many teams sweep series) so why can't they win four in a row again. I guess she may have something there.

Bravado in the sig, Nas, but not so much in the post.

Whachu smokin', Coach?

Webber did ZERO, nothing, nada in games 3 and 4 and wasn't a factor last night. Wallace had 3 offensive rebounds in a game his team hit every thing in site and has been a disruptive force thoughout.

If I hear one more reporter, host or analyst talk about "who the pressure is on" I'm going to kill someone

And it's not just this series or the local people either, I've heard it mentioned in every other damn series going on. The pressure is on everyone, it's the damn playoffs!!

I'm sick of the Pistons saying things like this below to explain their 2 losses or to just write it off as they weren't interested.

"There has to be a sense of urgency," Pistons coach Flip Saunders said.

Yeah, these interview and press conferences in the playoffs are brutal. I know normally nothing of substance is said anyway, but this is even worse. At any one, take your pick:

"They just came out and beat us"
"They came out with more energy than us and were able to sustain it"
"We've got to play 48 minutes of basketball"
"They just beat us plain and simple"
"They wanted it more than us"
"I thought (X player) really stepped it up tonight"
"They were just hitting their shots tonight"

Pistons just released 500 tickets for Game 7. That's planning ahead.

Nevermind.
