Excerpt from an article posted on espn.com
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. -- Shaquille O'Neal performed the way he did in three previous NBA Finals, when he won the MVP award each time.
His teammates played like the Clippers.
The Pistons are the 2004 NBA Champions. The Lakers are overrated. Kobe Bryant is overrated. If you put any 2 guard with mediocre talent in Kobe's place, you'd be in the finals. Hell, Ricky Davis could have number 8 on for the Lakers and they'd be in the same position. See what happens when a team with superior defense and an all-around better team can do? The Lakers are done for, Phil should take his pension and get the fuck out of there. Unless the LA front office decides that they need to throw more money into the Free Agent Pool and snatch up every available player. This is all a crock. Shaquille O'Neal is the best player in the NBA. No one can stop him. Holding him to 20 points is a success. Now, when he gets his 29 points and Kobe shoots 6-22, what happens? A Pistons' victory. And don't try to give me the "Kobe had an off-night speech." He's had an off fucking series. PISTONS IN 5. PISTONS IN 5. The Free Press is already printing them.
