I think the biggest question leading up to game three is whether or not a REAL crowd of intense Pistons fans will show up.
I really think it could be a turning point if people were to attually come out and support this team because we were the 8 seed agaisnt the all mighty 66 win Cavs. However, I think it really depends on the preformance of the Stones in games 1 and 2. Take one of those and people will be behind this team and really supportive - the palace pandamouium will be back in business. Lose both and there might be a sell out but really I dont see any real hype going on in terms of crowd noise and atmosphere.
So the key is just to win one of these first two games to get the fans behind the team again. The Pistons need to give people reason to believe that we could pull off the upset then the PEOPLE will make it happen.
Ah, I have actually done that at work! I called it DOUBLE JEOPARDY! It wasn't a pretty sight either! But the extreme cough, stomach cramps, and fall into the toilet and the garbage can, I can't explain that one.

After that half *** game one effort the Pistons deserve to walk into a half empty Palace filled with Cleveland fans. They don't care, why should the fans?

Sellout? Nope. I just want no doubt in Dumars mind this off season to get rid of these fools. I want no Prince, no Sheed, and no Curry next season and if it takes James burning down what's left of the Palace from when he burn't it down a few years ago then I'm alright with that.
