Smells like team spirit
Detroit didn't win. Bummer.
Not to take anything away from the Spurs, who have players with unquestionably great talent (the likes of Duncan and Ginobili), but the Pistons are more than just a bunch of talented players-- they're an outstanding team. There's an almost warm, fuzzy feeling you get from watching them play together, because they're like a well-oiled machine of several sturdy components that work unbelievably well as a unit. There are no certified superstars a la Kobe or Shaq (thus no superstar egos either), no ball-hogging, no finger-pointing, no prima donna hysterics. Plus, they are a joy to watch at both ends of the court (I usually don't pay attention to the defense but when it's Detroit, watching them defend is as satisfying as witnessing a monster slam dunk).
If only they gave out trophies for Best Ensemble Performance.
Footnote: Thanks to my friend and favorite driver Inigo for keeping me updated with quarterly scores. :)
