Well its final the Pistons and the Magic will square up saturday night in Game 1 of there 2nd round matchup. They went 2-2 against one another in the regular season. It will be a solid series. I think the key for the Magic will once again be the 3 pointer, when they have it on they are deadly. The Pistons however are one of the best teams in the league guarding the 3 point line sitting only behind Boston, who are number 1.

This is gonna be a fun one to watch guys, I know Sheed always gets up for playing agianst Dwight so he will be focused defensively and on 3's trying to bring him out or whoever is guarding him. Rashard Lewis has to show why they payed the HUGE money for him this past summer. Im looking forward to this and im glad those pesky 76ers are gone props to them though.

Lets get it on!!

I'm gonna go with 5 games, Detroit wins.  The Magic are hopeless until they get at least one legitimate starting point guard.  As good as their front court is, their backcourt almost cancels them out.  On top of that, Dwight needs to turn the ball over less, and Lewis needs to show up.  Historically, as you have said, Sheed matches up well against Howard.  So, again, 5 games, but it all depends on the Pistons continuing to show up.  If they blow them out in the first two games, i would be concerned.

I wanted to put 5 but ill put a margin of error for a random Pistons no show. However I really dont think that will happen this series. I think round 1 knocked some sence into them, they will be ready, and seem to be in a groove now.

I gotta go Pistons in 5 also because what you have now is a Pistons team that is focused and fine tuned.  Also, Rasheed is pissed and you know about Sheed when he wants to be he has the ability to school the competition.  And Rasheed seems to add fuel to the Pistons fire.  He is the emotional leader of the Pistons.  Be ready for the best of Detroit right when you need it most.   PISTONS NATION!!!!

I guess Piston fan hasn't been paying attention to the playoffs! Both Rashard Lewis and Jameer Nelson had a great series against Toronto. Rashard has been clutch for us all season, and nothing will change in Round 2. Magic in 6!

Looks like the boys finally get it, you want respect, you play big and you get it, Mad props Philly you got a team of horses, all running in different directions, but a team all the same...again, the Pistons don't have nothing to prove here against the Magic, granted it will be interesting... Chauncey and Rip against Jameer and Mo, looks like too much size for orlando...and they are not Philly, they will never outrun us will be great match ups down low...Pistons in six........
Go Pistons!!!!!!!

Pistons should win, they are a lot better than The Magic. D-Howard is a monster and he will be a force, but The Pistons have a committee for him. I like Jameer, and Rashard and Torkuglio (sp.?) but the Pistons are as good or better at every  position other than Center and are significantly deeper. I wouldn't think that it goes to 7 games, but if
