now i want the answer, What are you guys gonna say is the reason we won, now that we still own the magic, an sheed isn't the reason we beat em this time.... what kwame did good on him? who would have ever predicted that one, whaaat ben did good on him? who my friends who would have predicted that? An it's not prophetic, it's just common sense right in front of everyones eyes, yet for some reason how come im the only one who sees it?

What is your reason you think they won? I didn't see that you actually stated it in your ramble.

Personally, I think they won for two reasons. They got Howard into foul trouble and they shot and made a ton of free throws.

Also Orlando lives and dies by the three, and tonight they missed a ton. I think they shot like 27% or something close to that.

Anyway, I am really happy with the W and we played pretty good defense and played with a ton of effort and passion.

personally, i would've never suspected that kwame brown - being 6'11", 270 lbs and a good defender - would've ever played good defense. and don't even get me started on ben wallace: the 4-time defensive player of the year. since when can this guy play defense?


it's a good thing we have you to guide us

Very impressed with the win last night and Ben and Kwame did an ok job on Dwight. I attribute his lack of production more so on foul trouble though. I recall you also saying Maxiell being able to contain Dwight as well. How did Max do on him last night. Oh right, he didn't play. Last night wasn't about owning the Magic when both teams were missing key players in Rip, Tay, Rashard, Pietrus, and VC gimpy on his ankle. And again, Dwight was contained more by his foul trouble than anything else. Pistons definitely deserve credit for getting him in foul trouble, but only to an extent. Last night does not prove that Rasheed wasn't a key reason why the Pistons have had good, recent success against the Magic over the last few years.

If you're going to make an "I told you so thread," it should be when it actually applies.

he got in foul trouble cause we frustrated him, an he fouled us... an ill don't wanna just point out one thing cause its a team effort, but the reason we always own them is cause, we play man up on dwight, an our back court is always busting theirs up

i wanted the ones who thought sheed was the only reason we beat orlando, to answer the question, not me!
