  • David Stern always seemed to have something against Rasheed Wallace and the Detroit Pistons and Sheed revealed to Tyler why Stern hated him and the team. It was especially apparent during the 2005 Finals when Stern was clearly rooting for the San Antonio Spurs to win the title.

    The league doesn't like teams because teams are difficult to market. They love mythologizing players so that the general population thinks those players are responsible for all the team's success. Basketball isn't tennis, but they market it and change the rules as if it were. Pistons (including the Isiah Thomas teams) and the Spurs were awesome teams, but they don't fit the ridiculous marketing formula of the NBA. It's a narrative.

They gave Sheed, Chauncey, and Ben a QUICK 2-3 fouls early in the first quarter. Then Dice came in off the bench and he was cooking and then the refs got him up out of there with 2-3 quick fouls.

      Chauncey Billups won SO many games for the Pistons over the years just by drawing contact and making the free throws during crunch time. Game 7 was tied going into the 4th. That’s when Coach Pop switched up renowned defensive specialist Bruce Bowen to guard Billups. It was pretty much series over at that point. They didn’t need to call anything on Bowen whether he fouled him or not. ‘Cause the only thing anyone ever says about Bowen is that he plays great defense.
      Sheed got me wanting to revisit that wretched series for the first time since it happened. It’d be interesting to see all this stuff he’s mentioning play out. Won’t be any less painful to watch but it beats watching this year’s pistons team anyway.

    The NBA has been using foul trouble to sway/rig games since the 80's. Usually the team that is behind in the series or at home gets the benefit. A star or important player from the other team will get 2 quick fouls called early, and they have to sit until late in the 2nd quarter or miss most of their 1st rotation time.
    The other part of NBA playoff script is that the team trailing at the half usually gets caught up by the refs calling quick fouls on the team with the lead so that the trailing team shoots free throws/gets in the bonus and scores points without the clock running.
    Sheed is 💯 percent accurate with what he's saying.

    I remember a summer trip to jamaica. Was out in oche rio. Staying at the renaissance. Had to be 14/15 years old. My cousins, brothers, and I were trying to get in the club. We weren’t of age . So we were hanging out around the club…..we see this couple . Very tall. Especially the dude. I’m not a sports guy like my brother and friends. As they were walking I had to ask if he was a basketball. Firmly said “yes” . Asked his name “Rasheed Wallace” didn’t Who he was at the time. Just in awe of how tall he was . Years later hes in the western finals against lakers. As he played for Portland . It hit me when I noticed the birthmark on his head. And later Reading that post season he loves to spend time in Jamaica

    Always said one of the strategies to "Take the game global" was to have teams with international players, especially an International Super Star win the championship. This still the playbook today with Greek Freak, Jokic, the Raptors a few years back, all either have a ton of overseas players or a Super Star from Overseas.
    When a player from overseas is playing the country he's from is more likely to watch and support their guy.
    This been the NBA Strategy since the 1990's with Divac and the Lakers, and Kukoc with the Bulls

    @GOBLUEADAM 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    At the one game the Spurs won in Detroit, ref TIM DONAHEY, was officiating on the play where BIG SHOT BOB, made the winning shot for the Spurs, on an inbounds play. Sheed was covering Bob, who threw the ball in. DONAHEY, made Rasheed MOVE BACK, for some odd reason. When Bob threw the ball in, Sheed got caught up in the wash of of the play, and those few feet, MADE THE DIFFERENCE in Robert Horary winning that game, and hitting that shot. I NEVER KNEW, my Pistons had all this going against them, in that series! And if you go back and look at the calls in the 1991 Eastern Finals between the Pistons and Bulls, the calls that led to a Bulls series sweep, from the first two games in Chicago, WERE OFFICIATED, LIKE THEY HAD A SCRIPT TO FOLLOW! And in the end, the NBA, NBC, and Stern got what they wanted, MICHEAL AND JORANAIRES winning, and FIXED, PREARRANGED NBA FINALS MATCH UPS, FOR HIGH RATINGS, knowing those teams weren't even in the class or level of the Bulls! And because of that, years later, we now have a watered down, NO DEFENSE PLAYING, three point shooting, bunch of wimps, playing some of the most UNWATCHABLE basketball, we have ever seen.

  • @darrylhenry3188
    @darrylhenry3188 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Sheed is right about the spurs series but you really have to look the big picture also the NBA didn't want neither team in that finals period Shaq just went to Miami and Detroit beat them the Lakers were trying to rebuild around Kobe so the suns were the flashy team but san Antonio beat them. Tim Duncan and the spurs wasn't marketable just as much as the pistons wasn't me as a former player and love for the game loved that series that was pure basketball the ratings were down because the casual asshole didn't watch. But that was a great series. That's why when the 1st warriors championship Milwaukee the Mavericks Toronto and now Denver are my favorite ones from this era because they beat the status quo but prove the point the point of what sheed is saying just look at the sport shows every day the only people who are objective is the TNT crew

Chauncey is prolly the only of the bunch who maybe could be a hall of a gamer but again this team was grungiest and scrappiest team in basketball. But my personal fav was always RIP fuckin splash Hamilton with his cool ass mask he wore that made it look like he insane sideburns. I wanted my mom to get my a mask to wear but she said they are expensive and it’s only if you broke your nose when I was a kid.
