Neowin's Official NBA 2004 Playoffs Thread


Recommended Posts

Even though Philadelphia fans hate Larry Brown with a passion there are certain levels of hate. The hate for all the L.A. Lakers stand for, especially the cockyness Kobe Bryant and Shaq's gay camping under the net style of play, takes precidence over the Larry Brown hate. Thefore I am rooting for the Pistons beyond belief to beat LA, because I cannot stand to see the Lakers win it again. After the finals are over the hating of Larry Brown can commence once again, but for these seven games I am standing behind the Pistons. Best sign I saw in the crowd tonight after the Lakers got served: "There is not going to be a happy Hollywood ending this time." :D

LOL i love the creativity of Piston fans and thier posters (Y)

There was another one I noticed. It said "Our full house beats your two of a kind." It had pictures on cards and the front five of the Pistons were one hand, being the full house, and then it had Shaq and Kobe's picture as the other hand, them being the two of a kind. Detroit seriously had an awesome basketball crowd, something you did not see in the first two games at LA because only stars who claim to be life long Laker fans with their newly purchased Laker hats with the price tags still attached and uncreased brims are the only ones who show up to the Laker games.

but no team has ever won 3 in a row at home in the finals yet. I think the laker will at least get one game from their road trip.

i think detroit is going to take the remaining 3 games, i saw yesterday that teams who have had a 1 - 1 tie, the winner of game 3 wins the championship, statistics showed that 27 out of 31 (or 33) the number of times the winner of game 3 went on to win the championship

It's not that the Lakers were bad, it's just that the Pistons were very good. ;)

The Lakers officially got their asses handed to them.

nah, you dont even know. the lakers had a 36% field goal percentage, they were horrible. i think we're also not giving credit to how hard the wallace guys were locking shaq up, allowing him to only shoot 14 field goals. amazing defense... detroit what

Well, they didn't even get to shoot much what with Detroit's defense and constant steals. Kobe didn't seem to be doing any worse then normal.

    • Personally, I think these things are way over rated and way over priced, even at this price. I recently had Frontier Fiber installed with 2 of these devices and although they worked, I switched back to my own router and AP setup and get way better consistency on wireless speed than with Eeros. Wired speed seems to be more consistent also. Will be returning Eeros soon. I had told Frontier I didn't want them to begin with.
    • Yes, exactly what I have been thinking. Don't make the context menu simpler, make it smarter to learn what I actually use. And then, give me the ability to pin settings that I rarely use but need forget where they are.

    • Here's how to watch Summer Game Fest 2026 and what to expect from the 2-hour showcase by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June game showcase schedule is packed, and with the Sony event already behind us, it's time for the next major presentation to come in swinging. Later today, Geoff Keighley will be bringing the 2026 edition of Summer Game Fest live from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the Summer Game Fest showcase livestream will be kicking off at 2 PM PT | 5 PM ET | 10 PM BST later today, June 5. The jam-packed show is slated to run for about two hours, with platforms like YouTube (4K at 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, or X being available for catching it. Like in previous years, separate streams featuring American Sign Language and Descriptive Audio are available on YouTube as well. Keighley has only dropped a few teasers about what gaming fans can expect to see at the show. This includes a new look at Star Wars Zero Company from EA, a major announcement from Guild Wars developer ArenaNet, more Clutch gameplay, and some sort of Sega presence. As for fan expectations, there is hype building about a Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 reveal here, and we might see new details about announced games like Alien Isolation 2 as well. If you want even more games, keep in mind that right after the main kickoff event, the Day of the Devs showcase will begin its own festivities at 4 pm PT | 7 pm ET. This is focused entirely on upcoming indie games. Following this, the next major games showcase is slated to happen on June 7. Here, Microsoft is bringing the big guns with its Xbox Games Showcase and Gears of War E-Day Direct. Check out the full calendar for all of the June events over here.
