Pistons Own Dwight Howard and Orlando

Once thing that is for certain is that the NBA, and the haircuts that talk about it love to pump up "Superstars" that probably don't deserve it. Dwight Howard is just one of those "superstars". A guy that became a huge name after his superman dunk at the all-star game was another of the "Next" guys. Don't even get me started about that perfect score 6 inch shot not even being a dunk...

Well...tDwight and his Orlando counter-parts are now packing their Zero Halliburton bags and heading to sunny shores, in well..I guess Florida. At least they live in a sun-shiney place. They have that going for them.

Howard got abused by the Pistons and showed that he just isn't the go to guy everyone made him out to be. Another "superstar" that choked in the clutch. Another one from Orlando.

Orlando likes to talk a lot of smack it seems in the playoffs over the Pistons. Go all the way back to 2004 when T-Mac and the MAgic had the Pistons on the ropes in the first round of the playoffs going up 3-1 in the series. McGrady decided to pipe up and say that "It is nive to be int eh second round..."...DOH! Pistons went on to win 3 straight and eliminate that team on their way to crushing the Lakers int he Finals for the franchise's 3rd title.

This time Jameer Nelson guaranteed a Game 5 win. DOH! Pistons outplayed them the entire night, and if it weren't for atrocious shooting by Detroit int he first half they would have won by 30.

Now that it is over the Magic are still talking smack. THEY were the ones that lost the game because of their own mistakes. NO credit to the Pistons for winning Games 4 and 5 with out their starting PG Chauncey Billups. When you lose 4 out of 5 games in a series there is no room for saying you are a better team. Logic is failing you at that point.

Please bring on the Celtics.

Sheed is gonna make KG look like SVG (Stan Van Gundy).
