Just as the New England Patriots did in football, the Detroit Pistons demonstrated that team work is more important than individual stars by winning the NBA championship last night. The Bad Boys 2 completely dominated the Lakers and led by 26 when they started to take out the stars to loud cheers in the last quarter. The TV announcers said they could have played to August and the Lakers wouldn’t win. Motown greats showed support as Aretha Franklin sung the National Anthem and the Temptations, back from a Boston appearance on Saturday, performed at half time. The good guys can win.
Post Script: I just noticed the NY Times agreed as they said today:
"The Detroit Pistons, the essence of teamwork, the essence of grit, manhandled the built-to-win, built-to-gloat Los Angeles Lakers."
