Funny.... I just love watching Laker haters get excited over one loss. Phil always makes the right adjustments. Karl has been playing great until last night, so if you're expecting him to play that poorly all series you have to be nuts. And anyone who thinks Prince can control Kobe for an entire series is also crazy. The rest of the team will never play that poorly either. Pistons are in trouble Tuesday night.
It's also pathetic that Prince was considered to have showed "personal greatness on offense" with only 11 points..... Don't make me laugh. And Chauncey was the only person to shoot over 50% for the game, and they will never control Shaq. Little Ben looked like he needed to go back to college last night. This doesn't even worry me a little. If the Pistons played in the loaded west they wouldn't have had a better record than the top 5 teams out west, and there's no way they can win a series against LA.
And to say GP can't handle Chauncey is also foolish. We heard that same shit after the first games against the T-Wolves(Cassell) and the Spurs(Parker). Payton will adjust and Chauncey won't play that good the entire series. He's no Isiah fucking Thomas.

You're right, anyone that thinks the lakers will play that poorly again is foolish. But we proved that our defense will be effective. Come on, you have to admit that it wasn't just them having a bad night.
There's no way to prove what their record would be out west, but I think it would be in the top 4. Just my opinion though. As for Payton... Parker is young and wasn't used to the pressure, and Cassell got injured. Payton is old, and much slower than he used to be. You always speak big and call everyone crazy, nuts, etc, but have yet to be right about situations i've talked to you with. Although this is your best chance, we'll see.
