Point Blank: The Pistons are just a BETTER team!! They've driven this point home. I initially thought the winner would come from the west, but that's because the Lakers have mentally punk'd most teams. The Pistons are my boys...they had the Lakers scrambling, confused, and just sad tonight. BEAUTIFUL!!
But, to answer the question,when the Lakers acquired Payton and Malone, I thought it was a mistake. I predicted their demise early in the season (so much for my predictions. lol). While they have talent, it takes more than talent to win. You have to play as a team. It takes all of Phil's powers to make Shaq and Kobe play nice, so adding two more to the pot smelled like disaster. So, in a sense it was a good decision for most involved. I mean, they did make it to the Finals.
