PLAYERS: Rasheed Wallace,  LeBron James,  Delonte West,  Maurice Williams
The Detroit Pistons have been a staple in the Eastern Conference Finals the past couple of seasons, but this season, they will have something new - an extended summer vacation.

    The Cavaliers looked unbeatable and LeBron James was a "BEAST" it's kinda Sad to see the Detroit Pistons go out like that after 8 years of being a contender in the Eastern Conference,An end of an era,Good Luck Cleveland as they march forward....

    Detroit Pistons were finished when they traded their guard to Denver. Time to rebuild. They are no better than the NY Knicks. Cleveland Cavaliers and L.A. Lakers in finals.

    I love Rasheed Wallace, don't hate.
    The Pistons just showed their age. They have a combo of old guys and inexperienced guys, and that's just not enough.

    Rasheed Wallace is one on of the least "sportsman like athletes in sports: he's self-centered, plays dirty (see slam that opens Z's forehead in earlier series), talks trash to the media, and whines constantly. Taking steroids is nowhere near this kind of "bad example" from a supposed "role model".

      I don't understand why people think that athletes are supposed to be "role models". Being all hyped up as a media icon is not the same as being a role model. You're advocating taking illegal drugs (and unhealthy) versus speaking ones mind. Interesting position you have there.
