********CONGRATULATIONS DETROIT PISTONS FANS*********
Congrats to all Pistons fans from a Lakers fan. I am eating crow, and choking on the bones. Get on the phone to your local sports talk radio, and GLOAT for all you can gloat for, because you deserve to. You guy's beat the living dog snot out of my boys, and we never had a chance from the beginning.

2. Wow, tj, mighty gracious of you
I liked the Pistons because of perennial sixth man Corliss Williamson. I would have been happy for Derek Fisher as well. He's got several champ rings, but he's still my homeboy. Corliss finally has a ring after 10 years of hard work: good for him.

Good for the Pistons. Good luck to the Lakers; they'll be back there next year.

3. Don't count on it...
...Kobe, Phil, Shaq, all gone next year. Next year definitely is a rebuilding year for the lakeshow.

5. uh.. Shaq's got another year on his contract.
he'll be there. And I'm betting the other two will too. Kobe I wonder about but from what I've heard it's a 'more money' ploy.

the ones to worry are Malone, Fisher, Slava, Payton - though I'm betting if Karl came back they'd resign him.

there will definitely be some changes though

4. Class Act, TJ
Thank you.

And just so you know, Pistons fans don't really hate the Lakers.

We still hate those damn Celtics.

6. Thanks!
Today's Detroit Free Press headline was R-E-S-P-E-C-T. That sums it up, in my opinion.

Congrats to our Pistons!

9. Thank you. How humble.
Very gracious. I doubt I'd be that gracious if the opposite were to happen.
