Ice for Dyess

Every morning, I wake up at around 8:30 to 9:00 AM no matter how late early in the morning I sleep - around 1 to 3 AM usually. This is not to go anywhere, not even eat breakfast, but to watch the Detroit Pistons go to work.

I watch every game of the Easter Conference Finals, and also the Western Conference Finals. But I dont really care who wins back in the West, I'm just watching who my Pistons are gonna face in the Finals. (Though I'm slighty in favor of the Lakers cause of Kobe).

However, just after Game 5 today, I guess we are in a little bit of trouble. Now, Boston leads 3-2. One game away from the Finals. For the six straight time, the Pistons are in the ECF but failed to reach the finals the last two. I always hate it when they always say, "We will get them next year". They said when Miami got the best of them, and Cleveland LeBron James beating them. Why cant they do it this year?

Year in and year out, Antonio McDyess wants it more than everybody else in the team. Out of the starters, only he is the only one without a ring. From what I read, with last year's disappointing loss to Cleveland James, while others are on the podium, Dyess did not shower and drove home with his jersey on. That's how big this is for him.

I just wish his teammates feed off his desire to get a ring. I have this photo courtesy of Natalie Sitto from Need4Sheed.com.

I join the movement. This is OUR YEAR!

Bounce back PISTONS! Do it for Dyess!
