  1. My whole neighborhood was watching the series. We talked about it in school, after school and came home ready to see the Bad Boys bring home the glory. Nothing can compare to the sound of neighborhoods running out of the house cheering when they won the finals. Detroit Basketball is just built different.

  2. Yep, they were talkin shit to me all day because I am from Detroit, but I live in Cali. Saying y'all taking this L and the Lakers are going to sweep your PISSS TONS! I was like, we made it to the finals. Let's see what happens. After we won, I said well well well lol. A little quiet aren't we 😂😂😂😂

  3. Some of the Best memories of my childhood was cruising around Detroit after the Pistons won in 04!
    We shut down Belle Isle, Chandler Park, Woodward Ave. etc. Dudes who would normally mean-mug you when passing by was 🤜🏾🤛🏾dapping you up and smiling 😂😂 That lasted about a week, Good Times!

  4. Been a Pistons fan since the 70s, loved this team, Billups, Prince ,Big Ben, Rasheed, and Rip Hamilton, a way underrated team

  5. honestly i was in highschool when this Pistons team played together & i knew they would win the title. ive never seen a team that solid defensively ever and i dont think we ever will again. to hold any team below 70pts in a game nowadays is close to impossible. this team did it more than a dozen times

  6. All 5 of their Starters were All-stars.
    Prince was robbed to not play favorites.. yet he was the glue who guards Kobe. Melo didn't play D so know we wouldn't have won more with him much less one at all

  7. Detroit was in the building hard and will be always.. I can't really say the feeling, but we knew we was gone win.. the grit, n grind is real here💯💪🏾❤️

  8. When Detroit vs Everybody was born. Real talk. Everybody outside (hell inside. We still see yall detroit "lakers" fans) wrote the Pistons off.

  9. So I made my gambling name off this series 😂😂 I LOVED THE LAKERS BUT SHEED WAS MY FAVORITE PLAYER SO I BET EVERYTHING …..I WAS CALLED STUPID DUMMY ASININE. EVERYTHING IN THE BOOK … BUT PISTONS BROUGHT HOME THE🏆 and my💰……😂😂

  10. I will say but in away this team was just as good as the bad boys or better. They went to the conference finals for years. Made the playoffs for like 8 yrs straight

  11. Im a Spurs fan and wanted y'all to win so badly. I won so much money in jobcorps off of this here. Till this day y'all are GOATED.

  12. Im from Grand Rapids, MICHIGAN I couldn't believe it, but I got so much shiit growing up being a Pistons Fan even in MICHIGAN!!! When the Pistons weren't the best yet, and I'd wear my jersey to school I'd get so many people telling me to take that jersey off. I remember wearing my Beat LA shirt the last day of school my freshman year, and EVERYONE was giving me crap saying we had no chance to win. We went in, and won game 1, and the rest was history. It made it so much sweeter when we did our 5 game sweep, but I never got to see those jerks eats their word's. Still an AWESOME memory in my life.

  13. I think it was more of that we loved you guys and we wanted it brick the brick to Floor to Floor where we made it happen… We were all there!!!

  14. #FACTS.
    A LOT of the credit for the Pistons feeling of invincibility has to go to Coach Larry Brown. He was the right Man for that team at the right time.
    Also Joe D as GM…they had a LOT to do with making that TEAM what they were.

  15. We thru a Pistons Playoff party every night in build up to that series . Best time of my 20's. It will never be forgotten Big Ben💯🎯

  16. As a Boston Celtics fan this is one of my favorite teams ….. yea that’s how much I respect them I’m not even a pistons fan lol😂

  17. You gotta remember they made it to the finals it can go to any team at that point

  18. Two of the greatest moments in that whole playoff series was us beating the Lakers 4-1 and Tayshaun Prince with that chase down block on Reggie Miller in the ECF!

  19. Doesnt happen anymore pistons fans gotta be one of the most cancer fan bases in sports guy can have a 30,20,10 game fans will be like mvp were good again omg then same guy will score 12 points next game and same people will say oh were trash trade everyone etc its so cring to see idc tho 0-82 or 82-0 i love my team 💯
