Detroit Pistons: A bunch of team whiners and sore losers
I keep hearing about how the Detroit Pistons are a "real team". Teamwork, etc etc. Well, they must be a bunch of team whiners. Almost every game, they've bitched about the refs, despite the fact that fouls were called pretty evenly between the Pistons and the Heat. Their coach, Brown, has shown himself to be nothing more than a hypocrite, who talks the talk about playing a "team game", but is in the meantime negotiating the Cleveland for a position. And these guys are dirty players, just like the late 80s championship Pistons. Rather than saying the Miami Heat played a good game, and deserved to win, they say, "it was the refs". Following in the "tradition" of Isiah Thomas, perhaps:
You wanna talk about a "real team", fine. Talk about the Spurs. A real team. A real class act. Miami is also a "real team" and a real class act too. When they lose, they say it was because they played poorly, and the other team played well. Their coach doesn't blame it on the refs. But the Pistons? If you consider whining a "team activity", yes, they do that as a "team".

When the Pistons were eliminated in a four-game sweep by the Bulls in the 1991 Eastern Conference final, Thomas organized a walkout in which the Pistons refused to shake hands with the winners.Just like Very poor sportsmen, and self-absorbed, too. All season long, they've been talking about all they've had to overcome, like the brawl, and whatnot. Now, they're probably going to talk about how they have to "overcome" Brown's stunts. Quite frankly, it would be a real shame is punks like these went to the NBA Finals. Despite Miami clearly being the better team, the Pistons might have a better chance, if Wade can't rebound quickly from the dirty-play of Pistons players.
