If Detroit progress to the Finals I'd be suprised as hell. I even question their ability to make the East finals. Miami should ace them in the East finals if they make it though.

mmm just like the 4 HOFers were supposed to sweep them in last yrs finals :roll:
Miami have 2 players and thats it.
Wade and Shaq....pistons have seen it all before and they will put them to the sword in 6 games.

Which 5 current NBA head coaches won championships as players, and which one won with 2 different teams? (Not Mo Cheeks as he was recently fired.)

 

[Mr Saab]

don nelson
byron scott
rick carlisle
kevin mchale

 

[CanadianSteve]

Oops, I forgot Byron Scott. There are 2 more, including the one who won with 2 different teams. Good work so far Charlie.

 

[CanadianSteve]

Johnny Davis was one of the 2, but he was just fired by the Magic. Davis was on the 1977 Portland champs, and started as a rookie guard.

Cleveland coach Paul Silas played for the Celtics' champs in 74 and 76, and for the Sonics in 79.

something obscure that google cant help with..

In the 1992/3 season shaq broke 2 backboards. One in Phoenix and one in New Jersey...now staying with the new jersey one....here is the question :

Who did shaq dunk on when he broke the backboard structure.

 

[CanadianSteve]

Was that the one that slowly collapsed to the floor?

I'll guess Chris Dudley.
