NBA Playoffs - Day 31



Piston's Focus Results In Game 2 Win

Detroit 92 Miami 88


The Detroit Pistons came out of the gate ready to do battle this time. Unlike game 1 , the Pistons were ready to play ball and kept the Heat at a safe distance all night except in the closing minute of the game . The series is now tied at 1-1. ' Who did that ? Us ? ' asked both Pat Riley and Dwayne Wade in disbelief when told how they were able to score 17 points in 1'47'' of the game. The Heat tried hard to narrow the gap earlier but Prince and the 2 Wallaces kept the Detroit's scoring machine humming. ' They won the hustle points ' said Hubie Brown . Particularly Ben Wallace who was an offensive force . He also went for the long rebounds and more importantly ' controlled ' Shaq . At one stretch of the game , Shaq was called for sucessive offensive fouls. ' You'll get a blackeye and headaches afterwards ' said Ben . Part of the game. Shaq seems to enjoy inflicting ' damage ' to centers of opposing teams. On the other hand , the opposing centers seem OK to the punishments that Shaq inflicts on them. Unbelievable. After some time , the NBA noticed this affliction. It's called the ' battered center syndome '. I guess this sydrome is what led Charles Barkley to say ' after the game , you go home and beat your wife '.

The Pistons were focused this time according to Rip Hamilton. ' We didn't have focus in the last game ( 1 ) that's why we played bad. ' I hear that excuse everytime from all ballers. Not only from the Pistons. Vince , Wade , LeBron . All. Us ordinary mortals are left wondering what these ballers have in mind when they are not focusing on the game. Definitely not their home mortgages or the tuition fees for the kids. Not even the condo payment for girlfriend no.1 . What makes a baller lose focus causing a dip in his game ? Maybe jail time will do the trick. Rip and other ballers will learn to focus on the game if they know that they are liable for lack of focus .The lack of attention or focus cannot be used as an excuse anymore in the corporate world. Ask Enron's Lay and Skilling . The 2 face decades of prison time for what they claim was not knowing what's happening at Enron forcing the once powerful energy company to go bankrupt !
