PLAYOFF Game Thread: Bulls vs. Pistons Game 4
The longer the Bulls are in the playoffs, the more we can learn about the roster, so there's that benefit to winning a few games even if they have a near-impossible shot in the series.
I think we've found out that they can't match up with the Pistons yet, but a win would at least show glimpses of being somewhat comperable. And at the very least it will give Detroit fans reason to worry about their 'close-out' ability in series, or something.
I'll be at the game today, so if it's another loss it'll be a very depressing United Center and that's no good. If the Pistons jump out to an early lead it might get extra depressing as Skiles will likely empty the bench for some garbage time, and that doesn't help us learn anything.
So it's come to this: rooting for more learning experiences!

he can't help that he threw it down on the golden
Other than that, Billups, Hamilton and Sheed got the Chicago disease... they couldn't hit a shot to save their lives.
Props to the Bulls on today's game. I was rather impressed by the way they came out and hung tight after Detroit made a little run in the 4th.

Somebody's bitter....
by Chalkwhite on May 13, 2007 5:31 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
nah, not really
They played good today... Sheed, Billups and Hamilton obviously couldn't hit a shot, and Webber had no points in the 2nd straight game (I didn't realize he was as important as he is, the last 2 games have been close).
Anywho, doesn't matter to me really. Game 5 is Tuesday, so at least I can watch Detroit then instead of waiting for CLE or NJN to win the series.

Tayshaun Prince actually improved this year. But, well, he improved to a whopping 15.9 PER, which Deng almost equated in his second year. And Jason Maxiell? Really? Tyrus Thomas only needed one year, with only a year at LSU mind you, at age 20 to be up-to-par with what Maxiell has done in two years in the NBA at age 23.
Now, for some self-calculated stats, and I won't even use MatLab to see more trends. Hooray for no more school!
R. Wallace MP PTS FG%
31.4 11.5 41
C. Billups MP PTS FG%
37.54 16.8 41
R. Hamilton MP PTS FG%
37.83 19.9 46
Disclaimers: I took stats from Wallace from 2000-2001 while I only took stats from both Hamilton and Billups when they started playing for the Pistons. I figured out the percent increase/decrease from every subsequent year, and come up with these numbers. It's not that far of a reach either, especially for Wallace: the last time he had averaged points as low as 12.3 was in 1998-1999, and goes double for his MP, not averagine something that low since '98-'99. Topping that, the three of these guys are either already in their 30s, or are pivoting towards it(Hamilton's 29 next season).
While you guys are rocking this year, and probably will for a good two more years, it's inevitable that the Pistons team is going to be surpassed. The Bulls, on the other hand, have invested their future on Hinrich, Gordon, Deng, Thomas and Sefolosha, all of whom are under 27( Oh, and lest not remind us of the draft pick in 9 days). Every team goes through highs and lows in their history, and the Bulls are in the process of going through the highs. The Pistons, in this golden-age they've been in, has only 1 Championship to show for. Nice.
So, this is why Detroit sucks, and why you suck.

We'll, at least we salvaged some pride.
It was a mixture of resignation and defiance. In some ways, it was like watching a condemned man eat his final feast just before midnight. We got loud during the fourth quarter as a show of civic solidarity. The team also got a rousing ovation as they left the court. I think many fans know that this may be the last time we can express our appreciation for their efforts this season.
There were a ton of Pistons' fans in the place, not surprisingly. At least we sent them home unsatisfied.
Still depressed at the course of the series, but a win is good.

seemed like a lot of ticket scalpers out today
I know it was hard for me to get too into it. I instead spent the whole game nervous as hell b/c Skiles kept going to Noc and Duhon. ugh.

all sarcasm aside 1958...
I know it's hard to take this seriously but as the main Piston follower on this board, Detroit was clearly outplayed today on both ends.
Ben Wallace showed up and dominated the boards, Detroit did not hustle they thought it would come to them, and Chicago took this series back.
Yeah, they're still down 3-1 and noone has ever come back from 3-0, but at least today was a solid note they can carry into Game 5. Do I want to see the Bulls win Game 5? No, because I think if they win Game 5, then the series goes to 7 and that means the Bulls are on a run.

Thomas was the difference today
Deng and Wallace were awesome today, and they've easily been the best two Bulls in this series. I realize that's not saying much, since nobody's really played well, but I think it's fair to say that they've played less poorly than everyone else has in this series so far. Wallace is going to get most of the blame from the media once this series is over simply because of his big contract (OK, showing up late on Thursday and acting like a dickhead about it afterwards didn't help matters), but he hasn't been the problem for the Bulls. The problem has been that Billups and Hamilton have absolutely annihilated Hinrich and Gordon, but thankfully Hinrich decided to show up today.
