    I miss the old days. The 2004 Pistons were the reason why I started watching basketball as a kid.

    I'm glad Rasheed got a ring. He deserved it, he was passionate
  • @Doatello1991
    Always loved that the crowd would scream "SHEEEEEEEED" whenever he got the ball.
  • Take me back man! A defensive basketball game still entertains me more than any game where both teams score 120+

    Rasheed took prime Shaq and Kobe to a game 7 in the WCFs and nearly won that game. He's one of the most underrated PFs in NBA history. Glad he got his ring. He should have 2 or 3 but at least he proved he could beat Shaq and Kobe.
  • "We can play good basketball without being dirty and throwin' them elbows, but I'll play like that if they want me to." 🤣
  • I swear to God Sheed could've been top 5 PF ever if he puts his mind to it. I mean he got everything, great shooting touch, athletic ability, good basketball IQ, a good defender, shot-blocker, damn.

    What a time to be alive! I'm from Detroit and I was glued to every game! I was 16 years old when them boys RAN through the Lakers

    Rasheed was like the bear you didn't want to poke/provoke, he'd get into a zone and was virtually unplayable. He could make that short little jump hook, jumpers from the elbow & FT line or even a 3. Guy was all heart, loved it
