Scroll up, thats what I said. And yes, it was the same season of the Jones/Mash trade. Imagine some of the trash talk in that series.

A.C. Green
OOOOOOOOOOHHHH I thought you meant first base.

Preparation will only take you so far. After that you've got to take a few leaps of faith.

Didnt Grant Hill make it to 2nd round with Detroit many years ago? I swear it was the 2nd round against Philly when he did his ankle the first time

Grant Hill did his ankle and Detroit got swept 3-0. Later he got traded and that's when Detroit started winning.

I'd have to say Lebron James, i would love to see how he would do. He was so close this year but would have probably got killed by Miami.

LeBron hasn't had a chance, he'll get to it eventually, Cleveland's got a good squad right now. Tracy McGrady, Steve Francis and Grant Hill are ones that come to mind.

Er, no. After Hill was traded the pistons went straight into the lottery. Thats the year stack averaged 29 ppg and the pistons only won 30 games. The Rcik Carlisle took over and put some they won the central.
