Detroit totally outclasses Indy at guard... they will win. 6 games.
'Wolves last 6 games... if they are lucky.

No brag, just fact!
And, as I recall, I predicted that LA was the only WC team who could hope to beat EITHER Indy or Detroit in the finals.
I still think that the key to the Lakers is Malone. Nullifiy his physicallity and the Lakers are beatable. The Pistons can do it, but will the league allow it? Rasheed and Ben are not the glamourous poster boys that Shaq and (pre-rape charge) Kobe are. Lakers in 6 or 7... depending on the refs. (But my heart says Pistons in 6).
(Detroit split the season series with the Lakers. Back in November, Corliss Williamson, a 6'7" small forward, SHUT DOWN Shaq as Detroit defended it's home court. LA is very good, but not invincible.)
