Huge swing by an unbelievably terrible call.

The most clear play of the game with the sixers knocking the ball off the Pistons' foot and out of bounds. Referee incorrectly awards the ball to the Pistons and the Rasheed hits a three.

Already an uphill battle for the Sixers but if these kinds of breaks go against us we won't even have a chance of making the series close.

Been watching this game since 1st quarter and have no idea how Philly is within 20, let alone 3. Their offense is totally disjointed, they seem to be getting mauled on the boards. How is this close?

I don't want to start a Pistons fans vs. Sixers fans flame war/dick waving contest if it can be avoided.

The game has been closely called going both ways and for both teams. There have been perhaps questionable calls on both sides due to the referee's calling it so tight (see Samuel Dalemberts 3rd and 4th fouls).

The play I was talking about was frustrating because it was literally 100% clear. It wasn't a judgment call I disagreed with. If you showed a slow motion replay to every referee in the NBA every single one would say it should have been Philly's ball.

As it was, the Pistons drained a three (and three happens to be the difference right now).

Rasheed could be the best player in the NBA? Um...no he couldn't.

Rasheed the most talented player in the history of the NBA?!?!?!? wtf?

Not even arguably the most talented player in the NBA right now let alone in history.

I mean I understand hyperbole but that was beyond ******ed.

Yes, this is very true. To point out his natural talent, given the level of his professional achievements, is to damn him with faint praise. When people say things like this, they're obviously exaggerating, and they're really saying, "If he had good character, he would have done something more with his talent." Which really isn't much of a compliment.

I agree that he is very talented. I don't think a single knowledgable NBA fan fould make the argument that he is THE MOST talented player in the NBA.

Charles said the most talented in NBA history though!

I picked the Sixers to win this series, but this game has me questioning it, despite them leading right now. I just don't know how they are going to consistently get points.

Man it's a good thing the Red Wings won today, or this would have been a life tilt day in Detroit maybe. If the Pistons-Tigers-Wings had all lost, lol suicidements.

Iguadala lies in the middle of a straight line between Tony Allen and Lebron James. He's good, but he can't be your primary ball hander.

It's too bad that the Pistons will probably find a way to win. Them down 1 = going to win. You just can't let them stay there.
